Recruiting studies
- NCT05938738Recruiting
PEP buddy device for COPD breathing trouble
This trial studies whether using a handheld breathing device (called a PEP buddy) helps people with COPD feel less short of breath. It also looks at how the device may work to improve breathing during daily activities.
Groningen, Provincie GroningenAges 40 years+ - NCT05696782RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab after chemoradiation for stage III lung cancer
This trial tests giving durvalumab (an immune therapy) soon after standard chemotherapy and radiation for stage II–III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this “quick start” approach improves outcomes compared with waiting longer to begin durvalumab.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05103670Recruiting
PET/CT lung scan to assess recovery after pulmonary embolism
This study uses a special scan (PET/CT) and an inhaled/linked tracer to measure how well air and blood flow work in different lung areas after a pulmonary embolism. It’s meant to better understand regional lung function and how rehabilitation may help some people recover.
BrestAges 18–99 - NCT05061368RecruitingPhase 2
Sildenafil by mouth to improve breathing in COPD
This Phase 2 trial tests whether sildenafil tablets can improve exercise ability, shortness of breath, and heart-lung function in people with COPD. It also compares against people without COPD to better understand how sildenafil affects breathing tests.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 40–80 - NCT05015153Recruiting
Rehab after blood clot in the lungs to improve daily life
This study looks at whether pulmonary rehabilitation (a supervised exercise and support program for lung recovery) improves quality of life after a lung blood clot. It focuses on people who have ongoing breathing-related limits after treatment with blood thinners.
Brest, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT04253964RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy plus immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This study tests a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread or cannot be removed with surgery. The goal is to see how well this treatment works in patients with different levels of daily activity.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for dyspnea?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 54 recruiting dyspnea 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 dyspnea 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 dyspnea 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.
