Yet OSA heterogeneity goes largely unaddressed in current management pathways, which are characterized by high treatment failure rates of \u223c50%. Growing knowledge of OSA pathogenesis has stimulated new lines of investigation for therapies targeted to specific underlying mechanisms or \u201cendotypes.\u201d OSA endotypes include the primary anatomic predisposition to pharyngeal collapse, as well as \u201cnonanatomic\u201d mechanisms of low arousal threshold, unstable control of breathing (high loop gain), and impaired pharyngeal dilator muscle function. Identification of interindividual differences in OSA endotypes and disease expression, or \u201cOSA phenotypes,\u201d offers promise for a more targeted approach to OSA management in which appropriate treatments are tailored to individual needs. However, these concepts have largely been limited to the research setting, and more evidence is needed to support clinical translation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Goals<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To outline the rationale for clinical use, challenges, and key research priorities required to translate OSA endophenotyping for delivery of a more tailored approach to improve patient care and outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>An international multidisciplinary working group with expertise in OSA epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnostics, and treatments was convened.
