Weight loss procedure plus lifestyle changes for sleep apnea
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether a new injectable medicine called NNC0487-0111 helps people with excess weight and moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where breathing stops repeatedly during sleep) lose weight and improve their sleep apnea—without needing a CPAP machine. The goal is to see if better weight loss can reduce sleep apnea symptoms.
This study tests a new procedure called endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty with fundal mucosal ablation to help with weight loss. It is an option for people with obesity who have not had success with other methods and who have not had prior stomach surgery.
This study tests a lifestyle and physical activity program as a treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. It is for people who have not tried CPAP and want to see if exercise and healthy habits can help.
This trial tests a procedure called Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) as a non-surgical option for weight loss. It aims to help people who have not been able to lose weight with diet and exercise, and who either cannot or prefer not to have bariatric surgery.
This study looks at how a procedure called endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (a way to reduce stomach size without surgery) affects hormones and gut bacteria. It may help people with obesity lose weight and improve related health issues.
This study combines two endoscopic procedures to help you lose weight: one that reduces the size of your stomach and one that alters the stomach lining. It is designed for people who are ready to commit to long-term diet changes.
