Omega-7 oil effects on blood fats and fullness
This study tests whether an omega-7 (palmitoleic acid–rich) oil changes your blood fat levels and how full you feel. It includes healthy adults and may help explain nutrition-based ways to support heart health.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT02682667Recruiting
Providing blood samples for cancer immunotherapy research
This study collects and stores blood/tissue samples (called biospecimens) to support immunotherapy research at the cancer center. If you may qualify, your samples help researchers test new immune-based cancer treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT04216342RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new breathing-drug ingredient in healthy adults
This early study (Phase 1) tests how safe and tolerable Fx-5A is, and how the body processes it, in healthy volunteers. It’s mainly looking to understand side effects and drug levels rather than treating a disease.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT07566494RecruitingPhase 1
Testing VAS-101 for sickle cell disease
This early-phase trial tests a new drug called VAS-101 for people with sickle cell disease. It aims to find a safe dose and see how the drug affects the body.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT05213572Recruiting
Study of organ health in adults with sickle cell
This observational study looks closely at how major organs (like brain, kidneys, heart, lungs, liver, and joints) are working in adults with sickle cell. It may help researchers understand what changes happen after curative treatments (like transplant or gene therapy) or with ongoing care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT05403151Recruiting
Healthy blood vessel and control study
This study looks at healthy adults and how their blood vessels work. It may help researchers understand normal circulation so they can better compare changes in future conditions.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT05072483Recruiting
Study of CADASIL’s natural course using blood tests and MRI
This study follows people with CADASIL (a genetic brain blood-vessel condition) to learn how it progresses over time. It uses blood and possibly tissue samples and brain MRI scans to better understand changes in the brain.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT07613099RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new PET scan to detect lung and heart scarring
This study tests a new imaging scan (called 18F-FAPI PET/CT) that may help detect scarring in the lungs, heart, or blood vessels. If you have a heart, lung, or blood vessel condition that could cause scarring, this scan might show damage earlier and help doctors plan better treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT04008368RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Second stem cell transplant for sickle cell with declining donor cells
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether repeating a stem cell transplant can help people with sickle cell disease (SCD) whose donor cells are no longer holding strong. It may help restore healthier blood cell production and reduce symptoms such as pain crises and severe anemia.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–80 - NCT01621594Recruiting
Testing new radiation methods for heart CT images
This trial studies newer ways to take heart and blood vessel CT scans while using radiation more carefully. It may help improve image quality for people needing coronary CT angiography.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT00106925Recruiting
Long-term follow-up for people after stem cell transplant
This study follows people who are at least 3 years out from their first stem cell transplant to learn how they are doing long term. It may help improve future transplant care by tracking outcomes over time.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 7–80 - NCT01927783Recruiting
Community weight loss program for people in Washington area
This study tests a community-based behavioral weight loss program. It may help participants learn practical habits for healthier weight by working with people in local faith communities.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 19–85 - NCT05904093RecruitingPhase 1
Check if increasing fostamatinib doses are safe in sickle cell
This Phase 1 study tests whether increasing doses of fostamatinib are safe and tolerated in adults with stable sickle cell disease. It may help researchers understand if the drug could be a future treatment option for people with stable sickle cell.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT00001620Enrolling by invitation
NIH screening to see which blood studies fit you
This study is a general screening step at the NIH Clinical Center to check whether you might qualify for other NHLBI research protocols. It helps match you (or a donor/healthy volunteer) to the right study and confirms you can consent to participate.

What taking part in a lung diseases 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.
