Recruiting studies
- NCT06642610Recruiting
Using CGM to predict prediabetes in cystic fibrosis
This study uses a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), a small sensor worn on the skin, to track blood sugar levels in people with cystic fibrosis (CF) who do not have diabetes or have prediabetes. The goal is to find patterns that might predict who will develop diabetes, so it can be caught earlier.

Testing a new inhaler medicine for cystic fibrosis
This study tests an experimental inhalable medicine called ARCT-032 for people with cystic fibrosis who cannot take or benefit enough from current CFTR modulators. The goal is to see if it safely improves lung function and quality of life.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06836453Recruiting
New sweat test for cystic fibrosis diagnosis

StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07363304Recruiting
How ETI therapy affects body and gut in cystic fibrosis
This study looks at how the triple combination therapy (elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor, or ETI) affects your body's metabolism, epigenetics, and gut bacteria in people with cystic fibrosis. It aims to understand the broader health benefits of this treatment.
Bari, BariAges 2 years+ - NCT01852448Recruiting
Study genes affecting insulin in people with cystic fibrosis
This study looks at how genes may affect insulin and “incretin” hormones in people with cystic fibrosis. It may help researchers understand why some people develop blood-sugar problems and how to predict or prevent them.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 2 years+ - NCT01851694Recruiting
Study incretin hormone response in adults with cystic fibrosis
This study tests how the body’s “incretin” hormones affect insulin (sugar control) in adults with cystic fibrosis and certain blood sugar patterns. It may help explain what drives diabetes risk in cystic fibrosis and how the body responds to these hormone signals.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07484607Recruiting
Study on infections and treatments in cystic fibrosis exacerbations
This study looks at how lung infections and inflammation affect people with cystic fibrosis during severe flare-ups. It aims to understand which antibiotics work best and why, so your care team can choose the right treatment for you.
CardiffAges 16 years+ - NCT07508904Recruiting
Exercise effects in children with cystic fibrosis
This study tests whether a specific exercise program can improve muscle strength, breathing, and fitness in children with cystic fibrosis who are stable and able to exercise.
LahoreAges 6–18 - NCT07569419RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing Linaclotide for Cystic Fibrosis Bowel Function
This early-stage study tests whether a medication called linaclotide can help improve bowel function in people with cystic fibrosis. Researchers will use MRI scans and other tests to see how the medication affects your digestive system.
NottinghamAges 18–65 - NCT06132048Recruiting
Testing a smartphone app for cystic fibrosis
This study tests a smartphone app called MuCopilot that helps you track your cystic fibrosis symptoms at home. Researchers want to see if the app is easy to use and can give accurate information about your condition.
RouenAges 18 years+ - NCT07369414Recruiting
NTM Germs in CF Homes: A Household Study
This study looks at whether people with cystic fibrosis (CF) can pick up nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) from their home environment. It compares homes of people with CF who have NTM to those who don't, to see where germs might be hiding.
Borstel, Schleswig-HolsteinAges Any age - NCT02965326Recruiting
Testing blood and swab markers to track new cystic fibrosis treatments
This study looks for simple signals (markers) that may show whether cystic fibrosis treatments are working. It includes people who take CF “modulator” medicines like ivacaftor, people who don’t, and people whose cystic fibrosis was ruled out after testing.
ParisAges Any age - NCT04700358Recruiting
Study of antibacterial antibodies in adults with cystic fibrosis
This study looks at how your body’s antibacterial antibodies work in people with cystic fibrosis. It may help researchers understand immune responses in cystic fibrosis and guide better future treatments.
CologneAges 18 years+ - NCT05982795Recruiting
How CF modulators affect lung bacteria
This study looks at how highly effective CF modulator therapies change the bacteria living in the lungs of people with cystic fibrosis. Understanding these changes may help improve future treatments.
Lebanon, New HampshireAges 18–99 - NCT05998629Recruiting
Sweat sensor test for cystic fibrosis
This trial tests a new skin sensor that measures sweat to help diagnose cystic fibrosis. It compares results from people with CF and healthy volunteers to see if the device works accurately.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cystic fibrosis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 155 recruiting cystic fibrosis 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 cystic fibrosis 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 cystic fibrosis 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.
