This study tests a smartphone app designed to help you track and manage your COPD symptoms day-to-day. It includes a small device you use at home to measure your lung function, aiming to help you catch problems early and stay healthier.
Solna, Stockholm CountyAges 40 years+ - NCT07339280Enrolling by invitation
Probiotics for COPD: symptoms, lungs, and inflammation
This study tests whether taking a probiotic can improve symptoms, lung function, and inflammation in people with COPD. It is for adults with stable COPD who have not had a flare-up or treatment change in the last two months.
KarlovacAges 18 years+ - NCT07104136Enrolling by invitation
Training doctors to improve COPD treatment adherence
This trial trains primary care doctors to help their COPD patients stick with treatments. It tests whether a new coaching approach can improve medication use and health outcomes.
Tel AvivAges 18 years+ - NCT06652776Enrolling by invitation
Italian COPD patient registry study
This study is creating a registry to better understand Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in Italian patients. It will collect information from people with COPD to improve care and research.
Milan, MilanAges 40 years+ - NCT07762157Recruiting
Home-based exercise program for lung recovery after COPD flare-ups
This study tests whether a supervised home-based exercise program, delivered via video calls, can help people recovering from a COPD flare-up feel stronger and breathe easier, compared with usual care. If you join, you'll have regular online sessions with a rehab team from home.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07554352Recruiting
Home Device to Detect COPD Flare-Ups Early
This study tests a home monitoring device designed to catch COPD flare-ups (exacerbations) before they become severe. If you have had recent flare-ups, this device might help you stay healthier by alerting your doctor to problems early.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 21 years+ - NCT02800499Enrolling by invitation
COPD subgroup registry for people with cough and shortness of breath
This study enrolls certain people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to better understand COPD “subtypes” and symptoms like cough, mucus (sputum), and shortness of breath. It may help researchers predict what kind of COPD you have and improve future care.
Seoul, SeoulAges 40 years+ - NCT07751705Recruiting
Sputum collection with a chest vibration device for COPD
This study tests whether a chest vibration device helps people with COPD produce sputum (phlegm) more easily during a breathing test. It may help researchers collect better samples to understand and treat COPD.
Hanover, Lower SaxonyAges 40–70 - NCT07684820RecruitingPhase 2
A study of ExPD-101 for COPD with chronic bronchitis and frequent flare-ups
This study tests an experimental drug (ExPD-101) given daily as a pill for 52 weeks for people with COPD who have chronic bronchitis and frequent flare-ups. It compares the drug to a placebo (inactive pill) to see if it reduces flare-ups and improves symptoms.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 40–85 - NCT05825014Recruiting
Using computer prediction to reduce COPD complications
This study uses information from past hospital discharge records and breathing test results to predict who with COPD may have worse health outcomes later. It may help future COPD care by identifying higher-risk patients earlier.
Hong Kong, New TerritoriesAges 40 years+ - NCT05280132Recruiting
Testing quick tests to shorten antibiotics in severe COPD flare
This trial checks whether using fast test results (PCR from samples, a blood marker called procalcitonin, and sputum appearance) can safely reduce how long you need antibiotics during a severe COPD flare. It may help you receive fewer days of antibiotics while still controlling the infection risk.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05738720Recruiting
Home breathing rehab to reduce COPD flare-ups and hospital visits
This trial tests whether a breathing and exercise program done at home can lower COPD flare-ups and the chance of needing hospital care. It may help people with more severe COPD manage breathlessness and stay stable.
IstanbulAges 18–75 - NCT03564236Recruiting
Nasal high-flow oxygen for COPD flare-ups in hospital
This trial tests whether a special type of oxygen delivered through the nose (high-flow nasal oxygen) helps people hospitalized for a COPD flare-up. It is likely meant for people with significant breathing problems and recent repeat flare-ups.
ArnhemAges Any age - NCT06084117Recruiting
High-flow nasal oxygen for COPD flare-ups
This study tests whether high-flow nasal oxygen (a gentle breathing support through the nose) can help people with a severe COPD flare-up. If you have high carbon dioxide and slightly acidic blood, this treatment might improve your breathing and avoid the need for a breathing tube.
