Recruiting studies
- NCT05002478Recruiting
Prone positioning for very sick babies with lung distress
This trial tests whether turning very sick, ventilated infants onto their stomach (prone positioning) can improve breathing when they have severe lung distress from likely pneumonia or bronchiolitis. It may help your baby get better oxygen levels and recover faster, while doctors closely monitor safety.
ViennaAges Up to 1 year - NCT06861582Recruiting
Faster troponin test for chest pain in the ER
This study tests a faster way to measure a heart-muscle protein (troponin) in the emergency room, to see if it can help doctors decide sooner whether your chest pain is from a heart attack. If you are having chest pain that started a few hours ago, you may be able to join.
São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07576660RecruitingPhase 3
Dexamethasone for lung injury from sepsis
This trial tests whether the steroid dexamethasone can help people with sepsis who develop acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a severe lung injury. If you have an infection and need breathing support, this study may help find a better treatment.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges Any age - NCT07086755RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Vadadustat treatment for lung injury from infection
This trial tests a pill called vadadustat for people with a serious lung condition called ARDS, which makes it hard to breathe. The drug may reduce inflammation and improve oxygen levels, helping patients recover without needing a breathing tube.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07616089RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new pill for advanced blood cancers
This trial tests a new pill for people with certain blood cancers that have not gotten better with standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and works, and it may help shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07542366Recruiting
Testing a new lung imaging method in ICU patients
This study tests whether a special imaging technique called EIT (electrical impedance tomography) combined with a safe contrast injection can measure blood flow in the lungs of patients on breathing machines. If it works, it could help doctors better manage critically ill patients.
Wuhu, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06936618Recruiting
Electrical impedance guided ventilator settings for breathing failure
This trial tests whether using electrical impedance tomography (EIT), a safe and non-invasive monitoring technique, helps doctors set the ventilator better for patients with low oxygen levels. It may improve your breathing support during mechanical ventilation.
BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT06052436RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Treg cell therapy for COVID-19 and acute respiratory distress
This trial tests a new cell therapy using Treg cells from thymic tissue to calm an overactive immune response in severe COVID-19 and ARDS. It aims to improve breathing and reduce inflammation.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–65 - NCT06001645Recruiting
Lung biomarkers and air leaks in severe lung injury
This study looks for markers in the blood and signs of air trapped in the lung tissue of people with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It uses CT scans to understand why air leaks happen and if certain lab tests can predict them.
CagliariAges 18 years+ - NCT07566377RecruitingPhase 2
Cord Blood Transplant for Children and Young Adults With Blood Cancer
This study tests whether using cord blood stem cells (collected from umbilical cords after birth) can help treat high-risk blood cancers in children and young adults when a matched donor is not quickly available. Cord blood transplants may help prevent cancer from coming back.
New York, New YorkAges Up to 26 years - NCT07258290Recruiting
Freesolve Magnesium Scaffold for Heart Artery Blockages
This trial tests a new dissolvable magnesium scaffold to treat blockages in heart arteries. It is designed for people with stable heart pain or certain recent heart attacks, and it aims to open blocked arteries and then slowly dissolve over time.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–80 - NCT06026436Recruiting
Predicting clot and bleeding risk in kidney disease patients after a heart attack
This trial tests whether a blood test looking at platelets and tiny cell particles can help predict future blood clots or bleeding in people who have both chronic kidney disease and a recent heart attack. The goal is to improve treatment safety.
MarseilleAges 18–90 - NCT06128317Recruiting
Heart attack and chest pain registry study
This study is a registry that collects information from people who come to the hospital with heart-related symptoms like chest pain or high troponin levels. It helps doctors better understand different heart conditions and improve care.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06733168Recruiting
Electric imaging to guide breathing machine settings for ARDS
This trial tests whether using a special imaging technique (electrical impedance tomography) to set the breathing machine's pressure can improve oxygen levels and lung function in patients with moderate to severe ARDS, a serious lung condition.
HanoiAges 18 years+ - NCT05416385Recruiting
Stress echo scan with special contrast to study carotid plaque
This study uses a heart stress ultrasound test, plus a contrast dye, to look for new blood vessel growth inside carotid plaque (the buildup in neck arteries). It may help doctors better judge the risk of stroke and determine which people need closer care.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT07252245Recruiting
Improving how emergency teams decide who needs urgent heart care
This study is testing a way to help doctors decide which patients with chest pain need immediate transfer to a cardiac emergency department. It aims to improve the process of triaging patients who might be having a heart attack.
HapsAges 18 years+ - NCT07077057Recruiting
AI tool for heart attack detection
This trial tests an artificial intelligence system that helps doctors quickly identify heart attacks (myocardial infarction) in patients with symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath. It aims to speed up diagnosis and treatment.
Lugano, Canton TicinoAges 18 years+ - NCT07039149Recruiting
Dual antiplatelet therapy for acute coronary syndrome
This trial tests giving two blood-thinning medicines early to people who have had a heart attack or unstable chest pain. Researchers want to see if this approach reduces future heart problems.
AmmanAges 18 years+ - NCT06845826Recruiting
Quick Troponin Test in the ER for Chest Pain
This trial is checking a quick bedside blood test (troponin) for people who come to the emergency room with chest pain. It aims to see if the test can help doctors decide faster if you are having a heart attack.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18–75 - NCT06327984Recruiting
Sex hormones and inflammation in heart disease

Glendale, ArizonaAges 21 years+ - NCT06014112Recruiting
Glucose monitor test for heart attack recovery
This study tests a continuous glucose monitor (FSL Pro iQ) in people with heart attack to see if blood sugar patterns can predict recovery. It may help doctors better manage your care after a heart attack.

Finding the Best Lung Pressure Settings in Critically Ill Patients
This study tests two different methods to help doctors adjust breathing machine settings for patients with severe lung injury. The trial compares gentle chest/belly compressions with a special imaging technique to find the safest pressure levels.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - NCT06696638Recruiting
Guiding breathing help with lung imaging vs. pressure in ARDS
This trial compares two ways to set the breathing machine for people with ARDS (a serious lung injury). One method uses a special imaging belt (EIT) to see how the lungs are working, while the other uses pressure measurements. The goal is to find the best way to adjust ventilator support to help you breathe more easily.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for acute chest syndrome?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 65 recruiting acute chest syndrome studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a acute chest syndrome trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a acute chest syndrome trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
