Recruiting studies
- NCT05717192Recruiting
Bronchoscopy treatment to shrink severe emphysema using heat
This trial studies a bronchoscopy procedure that uses heat (thermoablation) to reduce over-inflated lung tissue in people with severe emphysema. If you qualify, it aims to improve breathing and walking ability after trying standard treatments first.
BerlinAges 40–75 - NCT06524856Recruiting
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+ - NCT06419036Enrolling by invitation
Using medical devices to monitor COPD at home
This study tests whether wearable medical devices can help monitor your COPD symptoms at home. You will use a smartphone app and a small chest patch to track your breathing, which may help you and your doctor better manage your condition.
GlasgowAges 18 years+ - NCT06419062Enrolling by invitation
Using wearables to monitor COPD at home
This study tests if a wearable device can help track your COPD symptoms between doctor visits. You'll use a smartphone or computer to share data, which may help your care team stay on top of your health.
GlasgowAges 18 years+ - NCT06376994RecruitingPhase 3
Clean air study for COPD
This study tests if using air cleaners at home improves lung health in people with COPD. If you qualify, you may get an air cleaner for your home and be followed for 12 months.

Ivy extract vs NAC for COPD: Which works better?
This study compares two treatments – a dry powder ivy extract and a common mucus-thinning medicine called NAC – to see which is safer and more effective for people with stable COPD. If you have COPD and are over 40, this trial could help find a better option to manage your symptoms.
Cheras, Kuala LumpurAges 40 years+ - NCT06334575RecruitingPhase 4
COPD treatment study based on eosinophil levels
This trial tests if inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) work better for COPD patients with different eosinophil levels. You must already be taking two long-acting bronchodilators and have stopped smoking for at least 6 months.
MarburgAges 40 years+ - NCT06253013Recruiting
CHARM-COPD program of care after a flare-up
This study tests a program of care called CHARM-COPD for people who recently left the hospital after a COPD flare-up. It offers virtual pulmonary rehab or remote monitoring to help you recover and manage your condition at home.
Toronto, OntarioAges 40 years+ - NCT05952999Enrolling by invitation
Studying Hospital-At-Home care done from home
This trial looks at how well a “Hospital at Home” program works when people start from the emergency department or are already in the hospital and can be cared for at home. It may help teams improve care at home for certain medical conditions and situations.
Peoria, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05743582Recruiting
Studying natural immunity in COPD and in healthy adults
This study looks at how the body’s “innate” (first-line) immune system works in people with COPD compared with healthy volunteers. It may help researchers understand COPD inflammation and how immune responses could be targeted in the future.
EdinburghAges 18–77 - NCT05196698Recruiting
Home high-flow oxygen after COPD hospital flare
This study tests whether using a special oxygen device at home helps prevent another acute COPD flare after you’ve been hospitalized. It’s mainly for people with severe breathing problems who may need oxygen support long-term.
RouenAges 18–85 - NCT03799354Recruiting
Strength training study for people with COPD
This trial tests whether a maximal strength training program can help people with COPD who are stable. It is looking at people with moderate-to-severe airflow limitation and excludes several other lung and health problems.
Lumezzane, BresciaAges 50–80 - NCT06258681Recruiting
Breathing exercise device for recovery after heart surgery
This trial tests a new breathing exercise device designed to help your lungs recover after heart surgery. It may make your breathing easier and speed up your return to daily activities.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 40–65 - NCT06019949Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation to improve breathing after spinal cord injury
This trial is testing if a device that sends mild electrical pulses to the spinal cord (spinal cord stimulation) can help improve breathing in people with chronic spinal cord injury. It may be a good option if your injury is above the T5 level and you have reduced lung function.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT07297303Recruiting
Lung health study after stem cell transplant
This study follows lung health after a stem cell transplant from a donor, to understand and manage chronic graft-versus-host disease (a condition where donor cells attack the body). It may help people who are about to have their first donor transplant.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT04670172Recruiting
Chronic sinusitis patient registry using a phone app
This study builds a real-world record of symptoms and outcomes in people with chronic sinusitis. You may help by using a smartphone app to report your symptoms over time.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT06529913Recruiting
Metals, pollutants, and risk of allergies
This study looks at whether heavy metals, nanoparticles, and other pollutants in the environment increase the risk of allergic diseases like contact dermatitis. If you have a metal allergy or are a healthy adult, you may help researchers understand how these exposures affect your health.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT05417685Enrolling by invitation
Digital physical therapy for musculoskeletal pain
This trial studies a smartphone/tablet-based care program to help people with neck, back, shoulder, elbow, wrist/hand, hip, knee, or ankle pain. It may help reduce pain and improve function using guided exercises, as long as it is safe for you to do light-to-moderate activity.
Draper, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT01793168Recruiting
Rare disease registry and history study
This study keeps a registry (a structured list) of people with rare diseases and may also track how the condition changes over time. It can help researchers better understand rare illnesses and find gaps in care, which may improve future treatments.
Sioux Falls, South DakotaAges Any age - NCT07232550Recruiting
Breathing study for children needing bronchoscopy
This study collects samples (like fluid from the lungs) during a planned bronchoscopy to look for new ways to understand and predict children's breathing problems. It might help if your child already needs this procedure for a medical reason.
WarsawAges Up to 17 years - NCT07215871Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Second H10N7 flu challenge for prior participants
This study tests whether people who have already been exposed to a lab-made H10N7 flu virus can be safely exposed again. It checks how their immune system responds and how long they shed the virus, in a controlled, isolated setting.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–55 - NCT06966271Recruiting
Lung medication study for asthma or COPD patients
This study uses computer modeling to see how much of your inhaled medication reaches your lungs. It helps doctors understand how to better treat breathing conditions like asthma or COPD.
BudapestAges 18 years+ - NCT07239583Recruiting
RSV infection and health impact in older adults in Vietnam
This study looks at how common RSV (a virus that can cause serious breathing problems) is in older adults who are hospitalized with respiratory symptoms or worsening heart/lung conditions. By joining, you help researchers understand the virus and improve care for people your age.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic respiratory disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 244 recruiting chronic respiratory 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 respiratory 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 respiratory 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.
