Telehealth lifestyle and exercise for COPD and sleep apnea
This study tests a telehealth program that combines lifestyle coaching and exercise to help people with both COPD and sleep apnea improve their breathing and daily function. It may be a good fit if you are overweight, have a history of smoking, and feel short of breath during light activity.
Boise, IdahoAges 18 years+ - NCT06413524Recruiting
Vibration exercises for people with COPD
This trial tests if different types of vibration exercises can help people with COPD (a chronic lung disease). It may be a good fit if you have severe COPD or have had recent flare-ups, are not already exercising regularly, and are willing to try a new therapy.
Taipei, Wenshan DistAges 40–99 - NCT06432972Recruiting
Pre-surgery exercise and smoking cessation program for lung cancer
This trial tests a short, intensive exercise program (pulmonary rehab) before lung cancer surgery. It also helps people quit smoking during the program. The goal is to see if this approach improves recovery after surgery.
Burlington, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT06476769Recruiting
Blow bottle and postural drainage for COPD
This study tests whether combining a simple blow-bottle breathing exercise with postural drainage (lying in different positions to help clear mucus) can help people with moderate to severe COPD breathe better. It is designed for older adults who are stable and do not have other major health issues.

Breathing exercise to increase lung capacity
This study tests a simple breathing device called the Lung Master to see if it can increase lung capacity. You will use it at home for a short time each day, and the researchers will track your progress.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT06530043Recruiting
Comparing two breathing exercises for COPD

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,257 recruiting chronic disease 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 chronic disease 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 chronic disease 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.
