Turkish validation of a breathing symptoms questionnaire in COPD
This study tests a Turkish version of a questionnaire that measures breathing-related symptoms in people with stable COPD. It aims to ensure the questionnaire is accurate and useful for Turkish-speaking patients.
IstanbulAges 18–75 - NCT07343375Enrolling by invitation
Exercise training before lung surgery for COPD
This trial tests if high-intensity interval training before lung volume reduction surgery can improve lung function in people with COPD. It may help you get stronger for surgery and recover better afterward.
CopenhagenAges Any age - NCT07319039Recruiting
Brain scan study of breathlessness in cancer, COPD, and heart failure
This study uses a brain scan (fMRI) to learn how the brain processes shortness of breath in people with advanced heart failure, COPD, or lung cancer. It aims to help doctors better understand and treat breathlessness.
Geneva, Canton of GenevaAges 18 years+ - NCT07302425Recruiting
Strength training after a COPD flare-up
This study tests whether doing high-intensity strength training (like lifting weights) helps people recover faster after a serious COPD flare-up that required a hospital stay. It's for people who are stable enough to walk and don't have other major health issues.
Lumezzane, BresciaAges 18 years+ - NCT07293429Recruiting
Posture and breathing training for COPD with forward head posture
This study tests a program that combines posture correction and breathing muscle exercises for people with COPD who also have a forward head posture. It aims to improve breathing and reduce shortness of breath.
LahoreAges 40–60 - NCT07288554RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BBT002 for healthy people and COPD patients
This trial tests an experimental drug called BBT002 in healthy volunteers and people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a lung condition that makes breathing hard. It aims to see if the drug is safe and how the body processes it.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT07292714RecruitingPhase 2
Testing 9MW1911 for people with moderate to severe COPD
This trial tests a new medication called 9MW1911 to see if it can help people with moderate to severe COPD who have had recent flare-ups. It is for current or former smokers ages 40 to 75 who are already on standard COPD treatments.
Chizhou, AnhuiAges 40–75 - NCT07285122RecruitingPhase 1
Inhaled study drug for healthy smokers and people with COPD
This study tests an inhaled medication called RB042 in healthy adults, healthy smokers, and people with COPD. It aims to see how the drug works in the body and whether it is safe, which could help in developing a new treatment for COPD.
Nedlands, Western AustraliaAges 18–80 - NCT05598983Recruiting
Remote monitoring to catch COPD flare-ups early
This study tests a non-contact, at-a-distance monitoring system to help detect COPD flare-ups early. If you’ve had flare-ups before, it may help track changes sooner and support better care decisions.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07267104Recruiting
Home ventilation study for COPD patients
This study looks at signals from non-invasive home ventilators to better track COPD. It may help understand how to manage the condition using data from your device.
Sabadell, BarcelonaAges 40–80 - NCT07261293Recruiting
Blood flow restriction exercise for COPD patients
This study tests whether adding mild blood flow restriction to aerobic exercise can improve lung function, exercise capacity, and inflammation in people with stable COPD. You would exercise on a bike or treadmill while wearing soft cuffs on your legs to lightly restrict blood flow.
IstanbulAges 40–80 - NCT07245576Recruiting
Testing new ways to diagnose asthma and COPD in primary care
This study compares simple breathing tests (oscillometry and FeNO) used by your primary care doctor against a specialist's diagnosis to see if they can accurately tell if you have asthma or COPD. If you have symptoms like wheezing, cough, or shortness of breath but haven't been diagnosed yet, this trial may help improve how these conditions are found.
Buenos AiresAges 18 years+ - NCT07249567Recruiting
Comparing COPD, PRISm, and healthy adults
This study compares the health of people with COPD (chronic lung disease) and those with PRISm (a milder lung condition) to healthy adults. The goal is to understand how these conditions affect daily life and overall health.
KarabükAges 40 years+ - NCT05962164Recruiting
Passive heat therapy for COPD in non-smokers
This study tests whether using passive heat (warming therapy, not exercise) can improve breathing and body comfort in people with COPD who are not currently flaring up. It may help by seeing if heat changes how well you tolerate breathing and physical activity during testing.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for copd?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 415 recruiting copd 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 copd 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 copd 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.
