Breathing practice for brain and mental health in cancer and other illnesses
This study tests a simple breathing practice to see if it can improve brain health and mental well-being for people with cancer, multiple sclerosis, or their caregivers. You will do light exercises and answer questionnaires, and some participants will also have an MRI brain scan.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–85 - NCT06789770Recruiting
Nasal vs mouth breathing during drug-induced sleep
This study compares how breathing through the nose versus mouth affects sleep, using both natural and medication-induced sleep. It may help people with sleep apnea understand their breathing patterns better.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06792045Recruiting
Predicting tongue blockage during sleep in children
This study uses a special camera during sleep to see if the tongue is blocking the airway in children with sleep-disordered breathing. It may help doctors better understand why some children still have trouble breathing after tonsil surgery.
BrusselsAges 6–17 - NCT06763549Enrolling by invitation
AI-powered wearable patch for heart and lung monitoring
This study tests an AI-powered wearable patch (the COR ECG) to see if it can better track heart and lung health. It may help doctors find problems earlier without needing bulky equipment.
Melbourne, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06753734Enrolling by invitation
Breath test to predict gestational diabetes in high-risk women
This study uses a simple breath test to predict gestational diabetes early in high-risk women. Researchers want to see if your breath can reveal signs of diabetes before symptoms appear, helping you get care sooner.
TianjinAges 18–55 - NCT06739681Enrolling by invitation
Can Imagery Exercises Improve Archery Focus and Performance?

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for breathing?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 354 recruiting breathing 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 breathing 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 breathing 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.
