Recruiting studies
- NCT06447818Recruiting
Airway changes after sleep apnea surgery
This study looks at how surgery for obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where breathing stops and starts during sleep) may affect your airway. The goal is to understand if the surgery makes it easier to manage your airway in the future.
Kocaeli, IzmıtAges 18–65 - NCT06283095Recruiting
Expanding the palate to help sleep apnea
This surgery expands the palate to treat obstructive sleep apnea caused by a narrow upper airway. It may help people with mild to moderate sleep apnea who have a specific type of airway collapse seen on a sleep-endoscopy test.
AsyutAges 18–70 - NCT07730879Recruiting
Wall Squat Exercise for Blood Pressure in Sleep Apnea
This study tests whether a simple wall squat exercise can help lower blood pressure in people who have both high blood pressure and sleep apnea (treated with CPAP). If you are using CPAP regularly and are otherwise healthy enough to exercise, this trial may be a good fit for you.
BragaAges 18–80 - NCT07555119Recruiting
Home Sleep Testing: Night-to-Night Measurement Variability Study
This study measures how sleep breathing patterns vary from night to night using home sleep testing. It helps researchers understand if portable sleep tests give consistent and reliable results.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT07635563RecruitingPhase 2
Sleep Apnea Treatment with Dronabinol and Acetazolamide
This study tests a combination medication (dronabinol and acetazolamide) to treat obstructive sleep apnea in people who cannot tolerate or use CPAP machines. The goal is to find the right dose that safely reduces breathing interruptions during sleep.
Chula Vista, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT06576310Recruiting
Predicting teeth changes from sleep apnea mouthpiece treatment
This study looks at people with sleep apnea who are using a special mouthpiece (mandibular advancement device). It aims to find out which factors predict changes in how your teeth fit together after using the device.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT04179981Recruiting
CPAP treatment effects in older COPD and sleep apnea patients
This study looks at whether using positive airway pressure (often called CPAP) improves health outcomes in older adults who have both COPD and obstructive sleep apnea. It may help find ways to reduce symptoms and complications from “overlap” breathing problems.
Detroit, MichiganAges 60 years+ - NCT04572503Recruiting
Surgery for mild to moderate sleep apnea not helped by CPAP
This trial looks at a modified palate surgery to treat mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea in people whose CPAP machine isn’t working for them. It may help if your sleep apnea is caused by the tissue behind the soft palate collapsing rather than other airway areas.
Banhā, Qalyubia GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT05147649Recruiting
Brain scan study in severe sleep apnea without CPAP
This trial uses a specialized brain scan (MRI) to study people with severe obstructive sleep apnea who are not using CPAP. It also compares them with people who do not have sleep apnea to understand how brain function differs.
ReimsAges 18–75 - NCT05237505RecruitingPhase 2
Sleep apnea plus COPD study to check heart and breathing effects
This Phase 2 study looks at the cardiovascular (heart/blood vessel) effects of having both sleep apnea and COPD. It may help doctors better understand who is at risk and how to manage these breathing problems together.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 40–79 - NCT05382754Recruiting
Home sleep testing for children being checked for sleep apnea
This trial tests whether home sleep testing can help diagnose sleep apnea in children. It is for kids who are already being referred for an in-lab sleep study at CHOP.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 5–12 - NCT05508971Recruiting
Personalized tonsil surgery for sleep apnea in children with Down syndrome
This study tests whether a personalized surgical approach can treat moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children with Down syndrome. The goal is to improve breathing during sleep and overall sleep health.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 2–17 - NCT05735444Recruiting
CPAP registry for sleep apnea in people with high blood pressure
This study keeps a record of people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who also have high blood pressure, to better understand how CPAP is used and what outcomes happen. It may help your care team by contributing your information to a large multi-center study in China.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05911646Recruiting
Tool to help decisions for mild sleep apnea in kids
This trial looks at OSA-18, a questionnaire that may help families and clinicians make better decisions about treatment for a child’s mild sleep apnea. It specifically focuses on children with enlarged tonsils and mild sleep study results.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges 3–12 - NCT05958563Recruiting
CPAP may prevent COPD flare-ups in COPD-OSA overlap
This study tests whether using continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) can reduce acute COPD flare-ups in people who also have sleep apnea. It may help by improving breathing during sleep and lowering the chance of worsening lung symptoms.
AngersAges 40 years+ - NCT06043440RecruitingPhase 2
Oxygen therapy for sleep apnea in Down syndrome
This study tests whether oxygen therapy can help children with Down syndrome who have sleep apnea. It compares oxygen treatment to no treatment to see if it improves breathing during sleep and thinking skills.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 5–18 - NCT06117579Recruiting
Breathing Muscle Training for Sleep Apnea
This trial tests whether a simple breathing exercise (training the muscles you use to breathe in) can improve sleep apnea symptoms in people who already use CPAP. The goal is to see if adding this training helps you feel better or need less CPAP pressure.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - NCT06312956Recruiting
Sleep Apnea and Ventilotherapy: A Study Before and After Treatment
This trial studies how sleep apnea affects the body and brain before and after starting treatment with a breathing device (ventilotherapy). It aims to understand the benefits of early treatment for people with obstructive sleep apnea.
Piancavallo, VCOAges 20–60 - NCT06462287RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a substance P blocker for high blood pressure and sleep apnea
This study tests if a drug that blocks substance P can lower a hormone called aldosterone in people with both severe sleep apnea and high blood pressure. If you have these conditions, this trial may help find a new treatment option.
Rouen, FranceAges 18–75 - NCT06471751Recruiting
Muscle training for moderate sleep apnea
This trial tests whether a 3-month program of muscle exercises for breathing and mouth strengthens the airway, to help people with moderate sleep apnea breathe better during sleep and possibly reduce their symptoms.
GrenobleAges 18 years+ - NCT06568159Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment in heart patients
This study looks at how well people with heart disease or high heart risk follow their sleep apnea treatment, comparing a mouth device (MAD) to a CPAP machine. It aims to find which treatment works better for daily use.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06586268Recruiting
Sleep changes after surgery in people with sleep apnea
This study looks at how sleep patterns change in the first three nights after surgery for people who have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It aims to understand how anesthesia and sleep apnea severity affect sleep quality during recovery.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06668597Recruiting
Sleep apnea education and motivation program
This trial tests an educational program to help people with sleep apnea start using CPAP at home. The program is designed to motivate and guide you through the process of adapting to CPAP therapy.

OSA digital network for early diagnosis and monitoring
This trial tests a digital tool to help diagnose and monitor obstructive sleep apnea earlier. It may help people with sleep apnea get better care.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for sleep apnea syndrome (osas)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 92 recruiting sleep apnea syndrome (osas) 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 sleep apnea syndrome (osas) 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 sleep apnea syndrome (osas) trial?
