Synthetic THC for better sleep with sleep apnea
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether a synthetic form of THC (a compound related to marijuana) can improve sleep in people with sleep apnea who use CPAP. It may help reduce breathing pauses during sleep.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether dronabinol, a cannabis-like medicine, can help people with moderate sleep apnea breathe better at night. It may be an option for those who haven't found other treatments helpful.
This early study tests a medicine that is meant to improve how your brain and breathing muscles work during sleep for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). If you qualify, you would be monitored during sleep to see whether the treatment changes breathing events and oxygen levels.
This trial tests whether taking a ketone supplement can improve sleep apnea in people who use CPAP. You may qualify if you have moderate to severe sleep apnea and use your CPAP regularly.
This trial tests whether the medication trazodone can help people with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). If you have OSA and are not taking certain medications or have other sleep disorders, you may be able to join.
This study tests whether atomoxetine and DAW2022 can improve how severe obstructive sleep apnea is. It may help by changing breathing patterns during sleep, measured through physiology tests.
This trial studies a “rescue” set of medicines for obstructive sleep apnea when two common treatments haven’t worked well enough. If you still have frequent breathing pauses during sleep, the study may test whether these medicines can reduce them and improve safety and symptoms.
