Screening for heart rhythm and kidney disease at home
This study is testing whether screening people at home can catch early signs of an irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) and kidney disease. If you're in the right age group and live in one of the selected regions, you could join and help researchers learn more about spotting these conditions early.
AmsterdamAges 50–75 - NCT02924818Recruiting
Research study for adults with long-term breathing lung diseases
This study enrolls adults with chronic lung conditions like COPD, cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis, or interstitial lung disease. It’s designed to learn more about these illnesses and to develop better ways to study or improve care.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - NCT06198309Recruiting
Predicting worsening COPD in severe patients
This study builds a tool to predict which COPD patients are likely to have worsening symptoms. It may help your doctor better manage your care if you have severe COPD.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40–85 - NCT07125352Recruiting
NLR blood test for COPD flare-ups
This study looks at whether the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in your blood can help doctors understand how serious a COPD flare-up is. You may join if you are 18 or older and admitted to the hospital with a COPD exacerbation.
Cairo, AbbasyeaAges 18 years+ - NCT06653413Recruiting
Using dynamic chest x-ray to diagnose COPD
This study tests if a new type of chest x-ray (dynamic chest x-ray) can help diagnose COPD. You would breathe normally and deeply while the x-ray takes images for 20 seconds. This could be a more comfortable way to check for COPD compared to standard breathing tests.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 40–80 - NCT03450603Recruiting
Predicting COPD flare-up risk in adults
This study looks at factors that can predict when chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) will flare up. It may help doctors identify people at higher risk sooner and tailor care to prevent flare-ups.
ShanghaiAges 40 years+ - NCT07082738RecruitingPhase 2
Study of AZD6793 for people with moderate to very severe COPD
This trial tests a new drug called AZD6793 for people with moderate to very severe COPD. It aims to see if the drug can help improve breathing and reduce flare-ups.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 40 years+ - NCT04160429Recruiting
Biospecimen testing to measure chemicals during treatment
This trial collects small samples like blood, sweat, and saliva while you’re taking certain medicines. Researchers will analyze these samples to see if they can detect chemical levels, which may help improve monitoring for people with chronic or infection-related illnesses.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04986332Recruiting
Program for COPD or heart failure in people with other illnesses
This trial studies a detailed, whole-body program to improve outcomes in people with COPD or heart failure, especially those who also have several other chronic conditions. It may help by improving activity and monitoring health markers over about 24 weeks.
PalermoAges 45–75 - NCT05896800Recruiting
Inhaled nitric oxide for moderate to severe COPD symptoms
This study tests whether inhaled nitric oxide gas can improve outcomes in people with moderate-to-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It may help reduce breathing problems by targeting how airways and blood vessels respond in the lungs.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 40–75 - NCT05939999Recruiting
Elastic tape plus rehab for COPD breathing problems
This trial studies whether using elastic tape during pulmonary rehabilitation can improve breathing and physical function in people with moderate to very severe COPD. It may help you tolerate rehab exercises more comfortably if you meet their specific health and safety requirements.
São Paulo, São PauloAges Any age - NCT06480435Recruiting
Chest physiotherapy and lung squeezing for men with COPD
This study explores whether a chest physiotherapy technique (called lung squeezing) can help men with moderate-to-severe COPD breathe more easily. Participants will receive the therapy and be monitored for improvements.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT06480422Recruiting
Breathing exercises for moderate COPD
This study tests two breathing exercises—autogenic drainage and segmental breathing—to see if they help people with moderate COPD breathe easier. It may help you clear mucus and improve your lung function.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT06579872Recruiting
Heart-Lung Function and Foot Pressure in COPD
This study looks at how your heart and lungs work together (cardiopulmonary function) and how you put pressure on your feet while walking (plantar pressure) in people with COPD. It may help design better rehabilitation programs.
New Taipei CityAges 45–65 - NCT07474220Recruiting
Study of SLC25A48 in COPD
This study measures a protein called SLC25A48 in people with COPD (a lung condition that makes breathing hard) and in healthy people to learn if it plays a role in the disease.
New Taipei CityAges 18 years+ - NCT06714721Recruiting
Magnetic diaphragm stimulation for COPD

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,255 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.
