Indianapolis, IndianaAges 12–19 - NCT06931938Recruiting
Awake Prone Position for Pneumonia and Low Oxygen
This trial tests whether lying on your stomach while awake (called awake prone positioning) can help people with pneumonia who have low oxygen levels in the ICU. It aims to see if this simple position change can improve breathing and avoid the need for a breathing machine.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06942533Recruiting
Using SpiroGym app to help Parkinson's breathing
This trial tests whether using a mobile app that gives visual feedback while doing breathing exercises can improve symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease. It may help you if you are on stable medication.
PragueAges 40–80 - NCT06992752Recruiting
Trial on breathing problems in people with thoracic outlet syndrome
This study looks at whether people with thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) have different breathing patterns and how that might relate to their symptoms. If you have had TOS pain for more than 6 months, you may be able to help researchers understand this condition better.
Ankara, AltındağAges 18–65 - NCT06994962Recruiting
Smartphone app to reduce heavy drinking in young adults

Doxapram to help COPD patients breathe easier off the ventilator
This trial tests if the drug doxapram can improve diaphragm movement in COPD patients who are being taken off a ventilator during a breathing trial. It aims to make the transition smoother and more successful.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 20–65 - NCT07060079Recruiting
Using entropy to measure sleep breathing in chronic lung disease
This study uses a special mathematical method called entropy to better understand sleep-disordered breathing in people with chronic respiratory disease. If you have a long-term lung condition, this research could help improve how sleep breathing problems are detected and managed.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07066566Recruiting
Comparing two ways to give high flow oxygen through the nose
This trial compares two types of high flow nasal cannula to see which one makes it easier for you to breathe. You may join if you are 18 or older and have normal oxygen levels without extra oxygen.
LarissaAges 18 years+ - NCT07067580Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for breathing?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 366 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.
