Personalized treatment for sleep apnea
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests alternative treatments for people with moderate to severe sleep apnea who cannot use CPAP. It aims to find more tolerable options.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have moderate to severe sleep apnea (AHI score of 15 or higher)
- You have tried CPAP but cannot tolerate it or do not use it regularly
- You are willing to try other treatments for sleep apnea
- Your AHI score is less than 65

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.
This study looks at different types of sleep apnea to find the best treatment for each person. If you are newly diagnosed and haven't tried CPAP yet, your participation could help doctors personalize therapy for better results.
This study compares two common treatments for moderate to severe sleep apnea: a device that keeps your airway open during sleep and a machine that delivers air pressure. It aims to see which works better for people like you.
This trial tests whether giving CPAP (a machine that helps you breathe at night) right away, without waiting for a formal sleep study, can help people who likely have sleep apnea. It aims to provide quicker treatment, especially in areas where sleep studies are not easy to get.
This study tests if a treatment chosen based on your specific type of sleep apnea works better for people with Down syndrome. It looks for participants who have sleep apnea but are not already using a CPAP machine regularly.
This trial tests a device that sends mild electrical pulses through the skin to help keep your airway open while you sleep. It may be an option if you have tried CPAP but found it too difficult to use regularly.
