Recruiting studies
- NCT06380491RecruitingPhase 4
Melatonin for nighttime blood pressure in sleep apnea
This study tests whether melatonin can help lower nighttime blood pressure and improve sleep quality in people with obstructive sleep apnea who have 'non-dipping' blood pressure (blood pressure that stays high at night).
Mexico CityAges 18–60 - NCT03621566Recruiting
Sleep apnea registry for adults with non-obstructive events
This study builds a registry to learn more about sleep apnea patterns, especially cases where most breathing events are not caused by blocked airway tissue. You may be able to join if you’re an adult with a specific sleep test result.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT02703220RecruitingPhase 4
Sleep apnea treatment in older adults
This study tests whether certain medications can help older adults with mild to moderate sleep apnea breathe better during sleep. It aims to improve sleep quality and safety for elderly patients.
Detroit, MichiganAges 60–89 - NCT07493629Recruiting
Study on immune status and disease control in inflammatory airway diseases
This study looks at how the immune system works and how well diseases like asthma, COPD, and others are controlled. You may join if you have one of these conditions or if you are a healthy volunteer or smoker without lung disease.
Ningbo, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06896448Recruiting
Sleep apnea screening for head and neck cancer patients
This study tests a smartphone app (Apneal) to screen for sleep apnea in people who are being checked for head and neck cancer. It aims to find sleep problems early so they can be treated.
Caen, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06372847Recruiting
Sleep apnea nerve stimulation study
This trial tests a nerve-stimulation implant for sleep apnea when other treatments haven't worked. It may help if you have moderate to severe apnea, a BMI under 32, and have tried CPAP and a mouth device without success.

Study of an SGLT2 pill for sleep apnea in overweight adults
This study tests whether taking an SGLT2 inhibitor pill (bexagliflozin) can improve obstructive sleep apnea and related body measurements. It focuses on people who are overweight or obese and have confirmed obstructive sleep apnea.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05986487Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment for better blood pressure control
This trial tests whether treating sleep-disordered breathing (like sleep apnea) can help lower blood pressure in people with high blood pressure. You may join if you have high blood pressure and haven't been diagnosed with a sleep disorder before.
LleidaAges 18 years+ - NCT07113288Recruiting
Inspire implant for severe sleep apnea and higher weight
This study tests an implanted device (Inspire) that stimulates nerves to keep your airway open during sleep. It is for people with severe sleep apnea who cannot use or tolerate a CPAP machine, and who may have a higher body mass index.
Colorado Springs, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07736872Recruiting
Sleep apnea screening in diverse groups
This study is screening people from different backgrounds for obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where breathing stops and starts during sleep). It uses a sleep test and questionnaires to see if you might have it.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT04192656RecruitingPhase 4
PAP treatment for sudden hearing loss with sleep apnea
This trial tests whether using PAP (a breathing device for sleep apnea) can improve sudden hearing loss that happens alongside obstructive sleep apnea. It may help by reducing stress on the body during sleep and supporting hearing recovery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT02762175Recruiting
Track breathing airway changes after jaw surgery for sleep apnea
This study records how your upper airway changes on scans after a jaw surgery called MMA for obstructive sleep apnea (OSAS). It also looks at how those changes relate to quality of life, which may help doctors better predict who benefits from surgery.
BrugesAges Any age - NCT03858751RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Drug to activate a sleep-control pathway for sleep apnea
This early study tests a medicine that is meant to improve how your brain and breathing muscles work during sleep for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). If you qualify, you would be monitored during sleep to see whether the treatment changes breathing events and oxygen levels.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–70 - NCT04623463Recruiting
Exercise and how it affects sleep apnea severity
This study looks at whether regular physical activity can make obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) less severe. It focuses on people who are not yet receiving OSA treatment and checks changes in severity over time.
GrenobleAges 18–80 - NCT05315752Recruiting
Body fat changes after CPAP-treated sleep apnea improves
This study looks at how bariatric (weight-loss) surgery may change body fat and body shape in people with severe obstructive sleep apnea who use CPAP. It aims to understand what may improve when sleep apnea is better controlled after surgery.
BrusselsAges 18–99 - NCT05391945Recruiting
Thyroid surgery and sleep apnea in people with goiters
This trial studies whether planned thyroidectomy (thyroid surgery) changes obstructive sleep apnea (breathing pauses during sleep) in people who have a goiter. It may help doctors understand whether treating the thyroid affects nighttime breathing.
BrusselsAges 18–90 - NCT06264427Recruiting
Study of metabolism issues in Greenland
This study looks at the genes and physical traits of people in Greenland with type 2 diabetes or severe obesity. It aims to better understand these conditions to improve care.
Nuuk, SermersooqAges 18 years+ - NCT07871149Recruiting
Perimenopausal symptom study for women with sleep apnea
This study tests whether treating sleep apnea can help women with menopause-related symptoms. It uses a home sleep test to check for sleep apnea and may offer treatment options to improve sleep and quality of life.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–40 - NCT07826429Recruiting
Testing a new breathing mask for sleep apnea
This study tests a new style of breathing mask (called the F&P Licorice Mask) for people who already use CPAP or similar therapy for sleep apnea. You'll use the mask at home and give feedback on how it feels and works, which could help make future masks more comfortable.
St Louis, MissouriAges 22 years+ - NCT07829055Enrolling by invitation
Effects of mental tasks on breathing in chronic opioid users
This study looks at how doing mental tasks affects breathing in people who take opioids daily for chronic pain, compared to those with sleep apnea and healthy people. It may help understand how opioids affect breathing and improve safety.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 45–65 - NCT06115018Recruiting
Oral device for sleep apnea after palate surgery
This study tests whether a special oral device (OPR) can help people with sleep apnea after they have had palate surgery. It looks at how well it works and if the benefits last over time.
TainanAges 18–100 - NCT07743931Recruiting
Combining CPAP and a sleep medication for sleep apnea with insomnia
This study tests combining a CPAP machine with a sleep medication called daridorexant to treat people who have both sleep apnea and insomnia. It aims to see if this combination therapy is safe and effective for people who are just starting treatment.
GrenobleAges 18–75 - NCT03929549Recruiting
Testing a tool to predict jaw surgery failure for sleep apnea
This trial studies a way to predict which people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may not do well after maxillomandibular advancement surgery (jaw advancement). It could help doctors choose the right treatment and avoid ineffective surgery.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 30–65 - NCT07466888Recruiting
Adjusting electrical stimulation frequency for tongue muscle activity
This trial tests how changing the frequency of gentle electrical pulses to a tongue muscle affects its activity. It may help people with sleep apnea by strengthening the muscle that keeps the airway open during sleep.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for obstructive sleep apnea?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 299 recruiting obstructive sleep apnea studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a obstructive sleep apnea trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a obstructive sleep apnea trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
