Recruiting studies
- NCT07581938Recruiting
Early Dental Screening for Sleep Problems in Kids
This study uses a smartphone app and a wearable device to check for early signs of sleep-disordered breathing—a condition where breathing stops briefly during sleep—in children ages 8–13. The goal is to catch dental and jaw problems that might lead to sleep issues before they become serious.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 8–13 - NCT06423118Recruiting
Sleep apnea and thinking skills in older adults
This study looks at how sleep apnea affects thinking and memory in older adults. If you join, you'll wear comfortable, non-invasive sensors overnight to monitor your sleep and breathing patterns.
Toronto, OntarioAges 55–85 - NCT04118387RecruitingPhase 4
Study of how to treat central sleep apnea in Veterans
This Phase 4 study looks at what’s going on in the body during central sleep apnea and uses that information to guide treatment. If you have central sleep apnea, this could help confirm or improve how treatment is chosen for you.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05978505RecruitingPhase 2
Reboxetine for sleep apnea after ENT surgery
This study tests if the medication reboxetine helps reduce sleep apnea symptoms after planned upper airway surgery. It may be a good fit if you have sleep apnea and are having surgery on your nose or throat.
Bedford Park, South AustraliaAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT06474390Recruiting
Testing a home sleep monitor for accuracy
This study tests a new home sleep monitoring device (TipTraQ) to see how well it works compared to the standard overnight sleep test done in a lab. It is for people who are already scheduled for a sleep study at Duke University Hospital.
Taipei, TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT06711159Recruiting
Searching for a biomarker of sleepiness in severe sleep apnea
This study looks for a biological marker of severe daytime sleepiness in people with severe obstructive sleep apnea who haven't started breathing machine treatment yet. It may help doctors better understand and treat sleepiness in the future.
Koege, Regional ZealandAges 18 years+ - NCT07103941Recruiting
Study of whether MAD therapy prevents bite changes
This study tests how well a dental device called a Mandibular Advancement Device (MAD) prevents changes in your bite and jaw alignment. It is for adults with sleep-disordered breathing who already have healthy, well-restored teeth.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT07579871Recruiting
Sleep patterns and recovery after first stroke
This study looks at how sleep affects recovery in people who have had their first ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by a blood clot). Researchers want to understand whether sleep quality influences how well patients regain function after stroke.
Lund, Skåne CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07332780Recruiting
Tonsil and adenoid surgery for kids with mild breathing troubles during sleep
This study looks at whether removing tonsils and adenoids can help improve spine curves in children who have mild sleep-disordered breathing. It may help prevent scoliosis from getting worse.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 6–15 - NCT06564896Recruiting
Comparing sleep apnea treatments (CPAP vs alternatives)
This trial compares different positive airway pressure (PAP) machines to see which works best for people with moderate to severe sleep apnea. If you have been diagnosed but haven't used a CPAP yet, this study may help find the best option for you.
Cheras, Kuala LumpurAges 18 years+ - NCT07259200Recruiting
Sleep quality after atrial fibrillation ablation
This study looks at how treating AFib with a procedure called catheter ablation might affect your sleep quality. You can join if you have AFib and are already planning to have this procedure, and you also have at least one risk factor for sleep apnea.
Grodzisk MazowieckiAges 18 years+ - NCT04007380Recruiting
Sleep problems after spinal cord injury study
This study looks at how sleep-disordered breathing (breathing problems during sleep) affects mood, thinking, and behavior after a spinal cord injury. It may help researchers understand the impact of these sleep breathing issues and guide better support for people after injury.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06030349Recruiting
Breathing support for kids with Down syndrome and sleep apnea
This trial looks at how well non-invasive breathing machines help children with Down syndrome who have obstructive sleep apnea. It tracks their health and sleep over time to see if the treatment works and improves daily life.
DublinAges 6 months–16 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.
Edegem, AntwerpenAges 18 years+ - 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 - 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+ - NCT07220525Recruiting
Sleep and heart rhythm study for people with sleep apnea device
This study looks at how turning off your sleep apnea device for short periods affects your heart rhythm, especially if you have a condition like atrial fibrillation. It may help understand the link between sleep and heart health.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT06861686Recruiting
New classification for obstructive sleep apnea
This study is improving how doctors classify obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where your breathing stops and starts during sleep). It focuses on sleepiness and heart-related risks to help guide treatment. If you are 40 or older and have untreated OSA, you may be able to join.
Antwerp, AntwerpAges 40 years+ - NCT07160868Recruiting
Sleep apnea and severe asthma study
This study looks at whether people with difficult-to-treat asthma might also have obstructive sleep apnea. If you're on high-dose asthma treatments, this trial could help find out if sleep problems are making your asthma worse.
Dublin, DublinAges 18–90 - 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+ - NCT06677580Recruiting
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?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 343 recruiting 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 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 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.
