NCT ID NCT07556432

First seen May 08, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 6 times

Summary

This study looks at people who have both sleep apnea and chronic insomnia. All 120 participants will receive standard CPAP therapy for sleep apnea. Half will also get a digital program to treat their insomnia starting at the same time as CPAP. The other half will follow usual care and can access the program after 6 months. The goal is to see if early insomnia treatment helps people use CPAP more regularly and improves their health.

What this could lead to

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage trial with only 120 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The digital program may not work as well as in-person therapy.
