Weight loss procedure plus lifestyle changes for sleep apnea
This study tests whether a stomach procedure called endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) plus lifestyle changes helps people with sleep apnea lose more weight and improve their breathing compared to lifestyle changes alone. If you have moderate to severe sleep apnea and have struggled to lose weight, this may be an option.

This trial checks how well antibodies from COVID-19 or monkeypox vaccines or treatments work in adults. It helps researchers understand your protection level.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - NCT07085975RecruitingPhase 1
Safety of inhaled ATP cough challenges
This study tests how safe and repeatable an inhaled ATP cough challenge is. It first enrolls healthy adults, then people with chronic cough or mild asthma who have not used steroid inhalers recently.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07086300Recruiting
Acupuncture with immunotherapy for older lung cancer patients
This trial tests whether adding electroacupuncture (a gentle, needle-based therapy) to a standard immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor) can help older adults with advanced lung cancer. It may improve treatment response and quality of life.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 65–100 - NCT07086391Recruiting
Inhaled Polymyxin B for Resistant Pneumonia
This trial tests different ways of giving an inhaled antibiotic (polymyxin B) to people on a ventilator who have pneumonia caused by tough bacteria that don't respond to usual antibiotics. The goal is to find the best way to deliver the medicine to help clear the infection.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–90 - NCT07086339Recruiting
Artificial bronchus implant for severe emphysema
This trial tests an implantable artificial bronchus to help people with severe emphysema breathe easier. It's for those who have stable COPD, can walk 100–400 meters in 6 minutes, and haven't smoked for at least 4 months.
LimogesAges 22 years+ - NCT07086456RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and two targeted drugs (surufatinib and tislelizumab) for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this approach works better than standard treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07086599Recruiting
Sleep problems in psoriatic arthritis and SAPHO syndrome
This study looks at sleep problems in people with psoriatic arthritis or SAPHO syndrome. Participants will stay in the hospital for special sleep tests to understand their sleep issues better.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07086612Recruiting
Sleep apnea and dental crossbite in children
This study looks at the link between sleep apnea (pauses in breathing during sleep) and a narrow upper jaw (crossbite) in children ages 6 to 16. It may help understand if treating the jaw can improve sleep breathing.
RouenAges 6–16 - NCT07086742Recruiting
Testing a smart mask that measures oxygen and pulse
This study tests a new 'smart mask' that can measure your oxygen levels and pulse rate. It is for healthy adults to see how well the mask works compared to standard devices.
GenkAges 18–65 - NCT07086989Recruiting
Heart health study for kids with chronic conditions
This study looks at heart disease risk in children and young adults (ages 6-25) with long-term health conditions like certain heart, kidney, or diabetes disorders. The goal is to better understand and manage heart risks early.
BudapestAges 6–25 - NCT07087080Recruiting
Using blood tests to tell if lung spots are cancer
This trial studies a blood test to help tell if a spot on your lung found by a PET-CT scan is cancer or not. It might help avoid unnecessary procedures in the future.
Genk, LimburgAges Any age - NCT07087587Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment for AFib: a personalized trial
This study tests whether treating sleep apnea with a CPAP machine can reduce the number of AFib episodes you have. It's a personalized 'N-of-1' trial, meaning you'll try both CPAP and no CPAP at different times to see what works best for you.
