New sleep apnea device study for CPAP users
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a new device for sleep apnea that you can use instead of a CPAP machine. If you have moderate to severe sleep apnea and CPAP isn't working well for you, this study may help find an easier option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have been diagnosed with moderate to severe sleep apnea (AHI score of 15 or higher).
- You should either not be able to use a CPAP machine as prescribed or be interested in trying a different sleep apnea therapy.
- You must be able to use your hands to put in and remove the study device by yourself.
- You cannot be pregnant or have an active COVID-19 infection.
- You cannot have a bleeding disorder, take blood thinners, or have allergies to silicone, lidocaine, or neosynephrine.

This study is for people who already finished a previous study using a device called a nasopharyngeal airway (a small tube placed in the nose to help with breathing during sleep). It will check how well the device works over a longer time.
This study evaluates a new APAP (automatic positive airway pressure) device called Elara for treating obstructive sleep apnea. You'll use the device and have sleep monitoring to see how well it works for you.
This study compares two different continuous positive airway pressure (PAP) machines, the KPAP and the ResMed AirSense 11 with EPR, to see if one works better for treating obstructive sleep apnea. If you're already using a PAP machine, you may be able to join and help find out if a newer device improves your therapy.
This study tests a new wearable CPAP device for people with obstructive sleep apnea. It compares the device used with a mask system to standard treatment. You may be a good fit if you already use a ResMed AirFit N20 Medium mask and an APAP machine.
This study tests a new device that may help people who use CPAP for sleep apnea. You will be asked to take a supervised daytime nap of up to 90 minutes using the device during one clinic visit.
This study tests a new proactive therapy for people recently diagnosed with moderate or severe sleep apnea. It aims to see how well patients stick with the treatment outside of a sleep lab.
