Weight Loss Medicine for Sleep Apnea on CPAP
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a new injectable medicine (NNC0487-0111) to help people lose weight and improve obstructive sleep apnea (a breathing condition during sleep). You must already be using a CPAP machine (positive airway pressure device) for your sleep apnea.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have been diagnosed with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) confirmed by a sleep test
- You are currently using a CPAP or similar airway pressure machine to treat your sleep apnea
- You do not have diabetes or prediabetes (HbA1c blood test under 6.5%)
- You have not had sleep apnea surgery in the past 3 months
- You have not taken GLP-1 weight-loss medicines (like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro) or similar drugs before

This study tests two new experimental medications designed to help adults lose weight and improve weight-related health conditions like high blood pressure and sleep apnea. Participants will take one of these medications to see if it's safe and effective.
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 trial tests an investigational drug called XW003 to see if it helps people with obesity and obstructive sleep apnea who are already using a positive airway pressure (PAP) machine, like CPAP. It aims to improve weight loss and sleep apnea symptoms.
This study tests an investigational medication called eloralintide to see if it can improve sleep apnea in people who are overweight or have obesity. You will receive either the study drug or a placebo (inactive shot), and your sleep and weight will be monitored over time.
This trial tests an investigational weekly injection called XW003 for weight loss in people who have obesity and moderate-to-severe sleep apnea but do not use a CPAP machine. It aims to see if the drug can help with weight loss and improve sleep apnea without the need for a breathing machine.
This study tests a new medicine to see how well it helps people with excess body weight lose weight. It may be an option if you have tried to lose weight through dieting before but haven't had lasting success.
