Recruiting studies
- NCT07666841Recruiting

Leicester, LeicestershireAges 18–100 - NCT07615504Recruiting
Better diagnostic testing for interstitial lung disease
This research study tests new diagnostic methods to better identify and predict outcomes in interstitial lung disease (a group of lung conditions causing scarring and breathing problems). Researchers are looking for people with ILD or those exposed to pigeons, which can trigger a type of lung disease.
BlackpoolAges 18–90 - NCT07597187Recruiting
Analyzing lung tissue samples to improve chronic lung disease diagnosis
This study uses a new imaging technology called LIBS to examine lung tissue samples that were already removed as part of your regular care. The goal is to see if this method can help doctors better understand and diagnose chronic lung diseases like interstitial lung disease, sarcoidosis, or emphysema.
GrenobleAges 18 years+ - NCT07512687Enrolling by invitation
Portable Oxygen During Daily Activity for Lung Disease
This study tests whether using portable oxygen during everyday activities helps people with certain lung diseases (like pulmonary fibrosis or COPD) who only experience low oxygen levels when moving around. Researchers want to see if a portable oxygen device improves how well participants can function and feel during daily life.

Robot vs. standard scope for lung biopsy in ILD
This study compares a robotic-assisted bronchoscope to a conventional one for performing a lung biopsy (cryobiopsy) in people with interstitial lung disease. The goal is to see which method is better at getting enough tissue for a diagnosis.
Lucerne, Canton of LucerneAges Any age - NCT07491523Recruiting
Adding anti-fibrotic to immunosuppression for scleroderma lung disease
This trial is testing whether adding an anti-fibrotic drug (a medicine that fights scarring) to two immunosuppressive drugs works better than the two drugs alone for people with scleroderma-related lung disease.
PátraiAges 18 years+ - NCT07486869RecruitingPhase 2
Emapalumab study for MDA5-related lung disease
This trial tests if emapalumab can help people with a serious lung condition linked to MDA5 antibodies. It may be an option for those with worsening breathing despite other treatments.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07406932Recruiting
JAK inhibitors vs standard therapy for lung scarring in Anti-Synthetase Syndrome
This trial tests whether a new class of drugs called JAK inhibitors (which block inflammation signals) is better than a standard treatment (calcineurin inhibitors) for people with lung scarring (interstitial lung disease) caused by Anti-Synthetase Syndrome. It is for people who have not yet taken any immune-suppressing medications for this condition.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07398287RecruitingPhase 2
Menthol for breathlessness in interstitial lung disease
This study tests if inhaling L-menthol can help reduce breathlessness in people with interstitial lung disease. You will cycle while breathing menthol or a placebo to see if it makes breathing easier.
Karlskrona, Blekinge CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07319598RecruitingPhase 4
Tetrandrine tablets for connective tissue disease-related lung disease
This study tests if tetrandrine tablets can help people with lung disease caused by connective tissue disorders. It is for adults 18-80 who have stable treatment and meet specific health criteria.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT06882265Recruiting
Remote monitoring for people on long-term oxygen therapy
This study tests if monitoring your vital signs remotely (like oxygen levels and heart rate) can help improve care for people who need long-term oxygen therapy due to COPD or ILD. It may help you feel more supported at home.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18–85 - NCT07285655RecruitingPhase 3
Study of L606 for lung disease with high blood pressure in the lungs
This trial tests a new treatment called L606 for people who have both a type of lung disease (ILD) and high blood pressure in the lungs (PH). The goal is to see if it is safe and helps with exercise and breathing.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–80 - NCT04767074Recruiting
Non-drug therapy to reduce long-term cough in lung scarring
This study tests a non-medication cough-control program for people who have lung scarring (interstitial lung disease) and a cough lasting more than 8 weeks. It may help you control coughing better without adding new medicines.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18–85 - NCT07234032RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term follow-up study of TPIP for PH-ILD
This trial is a long-term follow-up study for people who already completed a previous study of an inhaled treprostinil medication (TPIP) for pulmonary hypertension caused by interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD). It tests whether continued treatment with TPIP is safe and effective over a longer period.
Naples, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06696027Recruiting
Loss of Y chromosome in autoimmune and lung disease
This study looks at how the loss of the Y chromosome in blood cells may be linked to autoimmune and lung diseases in older men. By joining, you help researchers understand this connection better.
Bonn, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 50 years+ - NCT06948916Recruiting
Test of a 6-minute pegboard and ring exercise in ILD
This study will test a simple exercise test that uses a pegboard and rings to measure how your lungs and body work together. It may help doctors better understand your breathing ability.
AnkaraAges 18–75 - NCT07179380RecruitingPhase 3
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.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07175038RecruitingPhase 2

Hypnosis for managing severe breathlessness
This study tests whether hypnosis sessions can help you feel more in control of your breathlessness. If you have a chronic lung or heart condition and struggle with shortness of breath, you may be able to join a series of 3 hypnosis visits to see if it improves your daily life.
Geneva, Canton of GenevaAges 18 years+ - NCT07102589Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ild?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 67 recruiting ild 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 ild 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 ild 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.
