Inhaled treprostinil for pulmonary hypertension related to interstitial lung disease
This study tests an inhaled powder medication called TPIP (treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder) to see if it can improve symptoms and exercise ability in people who have both interstitial lung disease and pulmonary hypertension. The study will compare TPIP against a placebo (a dummy treatment without the active drug) to understand how well it works and if it is safe.
Fresno, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07142356RecruitingPhase 2
New oral medication for high blood pressure not controlled by current pills
This study tests a new medication, RTN-001, for people whose blood pressure remains high even when taking multiple blood pressure medications. The goal is to see if this drug can lower blood pressure more effectively.
San Jose, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT07136623Recruiting
Can a smart stethoscope detect pulmonary hypertension?
This study is testing if a special digital stethoscope (CORE 500) can help detect a heart condition called pulmonary hypertension. You may join if you are 18 or older, not currently hospitalized, and will have a heart ultrasound or right heart catheterization around the time of your visit.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06911632Recruiting
AI-assisted check for pulmonary hypertension in interstitial lung disease
This study uses an AI tool to help doctors decide if you should be tested for pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs), which can be a complication of interstitial lung disease. If the tool suggests you might have it, you may get an echocardiogram (an ultrasound of the heart) and a right heart catheterization (a test to measure pressure in the heart) to find out for sure.

What taking part in a high blood pressure study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
