Recruiting studies
- NCT07697885Recruiting
Lefamulin safety and effectiveness in pneumonia
This study watches how well the antibiotic lefamulin works in real-life patients with community-acquired pneumonia. It helps doctors understand the drug's safety and effectiveness outside of a controlled research setting.

This study compares two types of flu shots for people 65 and older to see which works better. If you are a Kaiser Permanente member and get your flu shot at a Kaiser facility, this trial looks at your health records to see how well the vaccine protected you.
Oakland, CaliforniaAges 65 years+ - NCT05722938RecruitingPhase 3
Testing Trimodulin for severe pneumonia on breathing support
This trial tests an investigational medicine called Trimodulin (BT588) for people with severe pneumonia who need a breathing machine. The goal is to see if it helps them recover faster.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06134492RecruitingPhase 3
Acyclovir for pneumonia patients with HSV-1 on breathing support
This trial tests whether acyclovir, an antiviral drug, can help patients with pneumonia who are on breathing support and have herpes simplex virus in their lung fluid. The goal is to see if it improves recovery.
Freiburg im Breisgau, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT03031210RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Twice-daily amoxicillin for mild childhood pneumonia
This trial tests whether twice-daily amoxicillin helps treat non-severe pneumonia in children. It may be a good option if your child has a mild form confirmed by symptoms and a chest X-ray.
Montreal, QuebecAges 3 months–18 years - NCT03795662Recruiting
Surviving Pneumonia
This trial studies treatment for pneumonia by enrolling people who have pneumonia signs on a chest X-ray plus typical symptoms like fever, cough, trouble breathing, or chest pain. It may help doctors test approaches for better outcomes after pneumonia.
HillerødAges 18 years+ - NCT04647630Recruiting
Check which pneumococcus types cause pneumonia
This trial looks at which “pneumococcus” (a common germ) types are causing pneumonia in people admitted to the hospital. It uses a urine test kit to see how often different pneumococcal types are involved, which may help future treatment choices.
ShatinAges 18 years+ - NCT04681339Recruiting
Antibiotics in hospitalized children with community pneumonia
This study looks at how antibiotics are prescribed for children who are hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia. It may help doctors choose more appropriate antibiotic use for kids in the hospital.
Filderstadt, Baden-WurttembergAges 3 months–18 years - NCT05848713RecruitingPhase 3
Blood-thinner treatment for complications of community pneumonia
This Phase 3 trial tests whether an anti-clot “blood thinner” can reduce complications from community-acquired pneumonia in hospitalized adults who need extra oxygen. It may help by lowering harmful clot-related effects during serious lung infection.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05903352RecruitingPhase 3
Personalized antibiotic duration for hospital pneumonia patients
This trial compares how long antibiotics should be given to people hospitalized with moderately severe community-acquired pneumonia. It uses your early improvement to see which antibiotic duration works best and safely.
GarchesAges 18 years+ - NCT06114888Recruiting
New diagnostic tests for children hospitalized with pneumonia
This study tests new ways to diagnose pneumonia in children who are hospitalized. It aims to find the best methods to quickly identify the cause of pneumonia, so your child can get the right treatment sooner.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 6 months–18 years - NCT06229288RecruitingPhase 3
Pneumonia treatment: amoxicillin alone vs. with clavulanate for adults 65+
This trial compares two antibiotics for older adults hospitalized with pneumonia. It aims to see if amoxicillin alone works as well as amoxicillin combined with clavulanate, which might reduce side effects.
Saint-Nazaire, FranceAges 65 years+ - NCT06294600RecruitingPhase 3
Clarithromycin to prevent sepsis in pneumonia
This study tests whether the antibiotic clarithromycin can prevent pneumonia from getting worse and turning into sepsis. It is for adults with community-acquired pneumonia who have certain signs of infection in their blood.
Athens, AthensAges 18 years+ - NCT06295120RecruitingPhase 4
Finding the best antibiotic course for pneumonia in adults
This trial is testing how many days of antibiotics are best for adults with pneumonia who are treated by their regular doctor (not in a hospital). The goal is to find the shortest effective treatment to reduce side effects and antibiotic resistance.
GistrupAges 18 years+ - NCT06516601Recruiting
Severe community-acquired pneumonia observational study
This study looks at patients with severe pneumonia caught outside the hospital. Researchers will review medical records to learn more about how this serious infection progresses.
Trieste, TSAges 18 years+ - NCT06577558RecruitingPhase 2
SR1375 for severe pneumonia not improving on antibiotics
This trial tests a new drug called SR1375 for adults with severe community-acquired pneumonia (a lung infection) who are not improving with standard antibiotics. It may help reduce inflammation and speed up recovery.
Fuyang, AnhuiAges 18–85 - NCT06601998Recruiting
Heart health after severe pneumonia
This study looks at how heart health changes in people who have recovered from severe pneumonia, including COVID-19. It compares survivors to healthy people and those with heart risk factors.
AlexandroupoliAges 18 years+ - NCT06670833Recruiting
Tools to improve childhood pneumonia care
This trial tests new tools to help doctors diagnose and manage pneumonia in children. It may help children with cough or trouble breathing who are not severely ill.
DakarAges 2 months–12 years - NCT06710080RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a medicine to reduce inflammation in pneumonia patients
This trial tests if a medicine called icosapent ethyl can reduce inflammation in blood vessels for adults hospitalized with pneumonia. It aims to see if this treatment can help prevent complications.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06755814Recruiting
Registry for pneumonia in patients with weakened immune systems
This registry study collects information from patients hospitalized with pneumonia who also have a weakened immune system. The goal is to better understand how to treat and manage pneumonia in people like you.
Milan, MilanoAges 18 years+ - NCT06966310Recruiting
Awake prone positioning for community acquired pneumonia with high-flow oxygen

AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06986148Recruiting
