Recruiting studies
- NCT07492420Recruiting

Study sleep apnea and heart outcomes in high-risk atrial fibrillation
This trial looks at how obstructive sleep apnea (OSA, a breathing problem during sleep) relates to heart outcomes in people with atrial fibrillation (AF). It may help doctors better predict risk and choose safer care for people who are high cardiovascular risk.
SingaporeAges 22–99 - NCT06576830RecruitingPhase 4
Pain relief study for kids having tonsil surgery
This study tests different ways to manage pain after tonsillectomy in children. The goal is to find better pain relief options.

Mediterranean diet vs standard diet for sleep apnea
This study compares the Mediterranean diet to a standard diet to see which one improves heart and metabolic health in people with moderate to severe sleep apnea. You might benefit from learning if changing what you eat can help manage your condition.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 30–70 - NCT04092660Recruiting
Mouth guard study to reduce airway collapse in sleep apnea
This study tests whether using an anti-snoring mouth guard (a mandibular advancement appliance) can help keep your airway open during sleep if you have obstructive sleep apnea. If you’re referred for this kind of mouth guard, the trial will see if using it more regularly or in a specific way improves symptoms or breathing during sleep.
LondonAges 40–90 - NCT07367022Recruiting
Sleep monitors for children with autism
This study tests whether a portable sleep monitor works well for children with autism who are having their first sleep study. It aims to find easier ways to track sleep patterns at home.

Testing a nerve therapy for Latin Americans with sleep apnea
This trial tests a new nerve-stimulation therapy called Neuromod to treat moderate-to-severe sleep apnea in people who do not have access to other treatments. If you qualify, you would be part of a study to see if this implant helps improve your breathing during sleep.
AsunciónAges 18 years+ - NCT06828835Recruiting
Sleep study for caregivers of children with breathing problems
This study helps parents of children with sleep-related breathing problems (like snoring or pauses in breathing) who have been referred to a specialist. It offers support and guidance over 12 months to make it easier to get the care your child needs.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 2–12 - NCT06883617Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for sleep breathing problems
This trial tests a new device that uses gentle electrical stimulation to improve breathing during sleep. It is for people who have moderate to severe sleep-disordered breathing and cannot use or do not get enough help from other treatments like CPAP.
Asunción, ParaguayAges 18 years+ - NCT07273019Recruiting
Tongue muscle test for children with sleep breathing issues
This trial studies how tongue muscles work in children who have trouble breathing during sleep. It aims to understand the link between tongue function and sleep disorders, which may lead to better treatments.
BronAges 4–17 - NCT07243405Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for sleep breathing problems
This trial tests a nerve stimulation device for people with moderate to severe sleep-disordered breathing who cannot use or tolerate standard treatments. It may help you breathe better during sleep.
Panama City, Provincia de PanamáAges 18 years+ - NCT04031950Recruiting
Testing a sleep sensor for children suspected of sleep apnea
This study tests a child sleep “sensor” device in kids who have been referred to a sleep clinic because sleep apnea is suspected. It may help doctors diagnose sleep problems more easily using extra information from the sensor.
SheffieldAges 1–18 - NCT05267808Recruiting
Using sleep study patterns to guide future OSA treatment
This study looks at results from a sleep test to better understand the different types (“endotypes”) of obstructive sleep apnea. Your information may help doctors choose the next best step—often a procedure called drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE)—to guide treatment.
EdegemAges 18 years+ - NCT05350332Recruiting
Testing how lung air volume affects airway narrowing during sleep testing
This study looks at whether changing lung air volume affects how open or blocked your upper airway is during a drug-induced sleep test (DISE). It may help guide surgical choices for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05656365Recruiting
Study of genes and immunity in PFAPA and other tonsil problems
This study looks at genetic markers and immune system patterns in people with PFAPA (periodic fevers with mouth sores and throat/neck gland symptoms) or similar tonsil problems. It may help researchers understand why these conditions happen and how they might be better diagnosed or treated.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1 month–99 years - NCT06314477Recruiting
CPAP treatment for severe uncontrolled asthma with sleep apnea
This trial tests if CPAP (a mask that helps you breathe at night) can improve asthma control in people who have both severe uncontrolled asthma and sleep apnea (a condition where breathing stops and starts during sleep). You should not have been hospitalized for asthma in the last month.
Barcelona, SpainAges 18 years+ - NCT06453018Recruiting
Sleep position therapy for children with sleep apnea
This trial tests if changing sleep position (like avoiding sleeping on the back) can improve sleep apnea in children aged 6 to 17. It may be an option if your child has moderate to severe sleep apnea that gets worse when lying on their back.
Hong KongAges 6–17 - NCT06781593Recruiting
Light therapy and CPAP for depression with sleep apnea
This study tests if adding bright light therapy to standard CPAP treatment helps improve mood in people who have both depression and sleep apnea. You may benefit if your depression and sleep apnea are both being treated.
Bron, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT07446634Recruiting
Jaw advancement surgery for sleep apnea
This study tests jaw advancement surgery for people with obstructive sleep apnea who haven't been helped by CPAP or mouthpieces. It looks at whether moving the jaw forward can improve breathing during sleep.
Falun, Dalarna CountyAges 18–70 - NCT06755840Recruiting
Sleep breathing problems and multiple health conditions study
This study is for people who may have sleep-related breathing problems (like sleep apnea). It looks at how these issues connect with other health conditions. Participants will do a one-night sleep test and some simple health checks at Xiangya Hospital.
ChangshaAges Any age - 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 - NCT06566482RecruitingPhase 4
Medicine for pain after surgery in sleep apnea patients
This trial tests a combination of two medicines (dexmedetomidine and esketamine) given in small doses to help with pain after surgery. It is for people who have sleep apnea or are at risk for it, and who are having chest or belly surgery with a scope.

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.
