Sleep Apnea Syndromes clinical trials
The registry lists 1,084 studies for Sleep Apnea Syndromes across more than 10 countries. 171 are recruiting or about to start. 477 of them are mainly about Sleep Apnea Syndromes (how this is decided). Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-11-12. Counting its 3 narrower conditions too, such as Sleep Apnea, Obstructive: 3,028 studies, 575 open.
ClinicalTrials.gov finds 3,190 studies for Sleep Apnea Syndromes. How that becomes 1,083 here
This page counts the studies the registry files under Sleep Apnea Syndromes, and those it files under no condition that list Sleep Apnea Syndromesthemselves. Each study its search finds is placed by how the registry filed it and by the conditions it lists. ClinicalTrials.gov counts as of Nov 8, 2026. How condition pages count

How long Sleep Apnea Syndromes studies take
Of 25 phase 4 interventional studies under Sleep Apnea Syndromes, half reached primary completion within 34 months of starting, counting those still running.
| Start to primary completion | Every sponsor | Industry | Non-industry |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 2 | 46 mo26–56 · 17 studies | — | — |
| Phase 4 | 34 mo18–72 · 25 studies | — | — |
| Interventional, no phase | 26 mo11–56 · 268 studies | 11 mo4–18 · 68 studies | 42 mo15–60 · 200 studies |
| Observational | 43 mo15–83 · 149 studies | — | 43 mo16–83 · 130 studies |
Each figure is the month by which half the studies had reached primary completion, with the range in which the middle half did. Studies still running count until their last registry update; studies that stopped early are left out. Phase 1 includes early phase 1; observational means prospective or not stated, as retrospective and cross-sectional studies date a window of data rather than a study. How these figures are worked out
