This study looks at how viral infections impact people with chronic lung conditions like COPD or bronchiectasis. It aims to understand symptoms and triggers better, which could help improve future treatments.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT00001532Recruiting
How Genes Affect Lung Disease Development
This research study examines how genetic factors contribute to various lung diseases, including alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, cystic fibrosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Researchers want to understand why some people develop lung disease and how genetics plays a role, which may help improve treatment in the future.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–90 - NCT01851642Recruiting
Study how lung disease affects white blood cells
This study looks at how lung disease changes a type of blood cell called white blood cells. It may help researchers understand what’s happening in the lungs and how to better monitor or treat lung problems.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04026360Recruiting
Study early lung, virus, and gut changes in children with cystic fibrosis
This study looks at how a child’s early lung function, viral infections, and gut (microbiome) changes affect cystic fibrosis over time. It may help doctors understand what predicts how lung disease develops, which could improve future care.
BernAges birth–18 years - NCT06093867Recruiting
Tracking lung health after stem cell transplant
This study follows people getting a stem cell transplant to watch for lung problems, like infections or other lung diseases, that can happen after the transplant. The goal is to catch these issues early.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 5–70 - NCT06626178Recruiting
AI for preventing smoking-related diseases
This study uses artificial intelligence to analyze CT scans and other health data to better identify people at risk for smoking-related diseases like lung cancer. Researchers hope to improve early detection and prevention.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT05935605Recruiting
Study pulmonary hypertension in heart failure and valve disease
This study looks at pulmonary hypertension—high blood pressure in the lung arteries—in people with certain heart conditions (heart failure with preserved or reduced pumping function, or significant valve disease). It may help doctors better understand how lung blood pressure changes in these heart problems and guide care.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT03630211RecruitingPhase 2
Study of stem cell transplant for systemic sclerosis in youth
This Phase 2 study tests whether an “autologous” stem cell transplant—using your own stem cells—can reduce systemic sclerosis disease activity. It is mainly for children, teens, and young adults whose disease did not improve despite standard medicines.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 8–60 - NCT07761377Recruiting
Using AI to spot lung scarring on CT scans
This study tests whether an AI tool can correctly find lung scarring (pulmonary fibrosis) on CT scans as well as doctors do. The results could lead to faster, more consistent detection of this condition.
