Recruiting studies
- NCT07356076Recruiting
Using electrical impedance tomography to look at lung disease
This study uses a special imaging test called electrical impedance tomography (EIT) to look at how well the lungs work in people with lung diseases like COPD, asthma, pneumonia, or long-term effects from COVID-19. It also includes healthy volunteers to compare results.
OlomoucAges 18 years+ - NCT03388476Enrolling by invitation
Breathing carbon dioxide measurement to detect lung high blood pressure
This trial tests whether measuring carbon dioxide you breathe out can help detect pulmonary hypertension earlier. It may help doctors spot this lung blood vessel condition sooner, especially around the time you get a heart test.
Giessen, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT06917573RecruitingPhase 2
Cemiplimab for advanced lung cancer with high PD-L1
This trial tests a drug called cemiplimab (an immunotherapy) for people with advanced lung cancer that has high PD-L1 levels. It uses a simple blood test to track how well the treatment is working.
Alicante, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT04543461Recruiting
Lung health study for young adults in the U.S.
This study follows young adults to learn about lung health and risk factors. It may help researchers better understand how breathing symptoms and exposures affect future lung outcomes.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 25–35 - NCT07704567Recruiting
Using MoblO2 to maintain oxygen levels during activity
This study tests a device called MoblO2 to help people with COPD or interstitial lung disease keep their oxygen levels up during activity. If you normally use oxygen when you walk or exert yourself, this might help you stay active more safely.
Denver, ColoradoAges 25–95 - NCT06046547Recruiting
Palliative care learning for lung rehab patients
This trial tests adding palliative care education to pulmonary rehabilitation for people with COPD or ILD and their caregivers. It aims to see if this helps improve symptom management and quality of life.
AveiroAges 18 years+ - NCT06574581RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Adipose stem cells for connective tissue disease with lung scarring
This trial tests whether stem cells from fat tissue can help people with connective tissue diseases (like lupus or scleroderma) whose lung scarring has worsened despite standard treatments. It aims to slow or stop lung damage.
TaichungAges 20–80 - NCT06702228Recruiting
Precision care for pulmonary fibrosis in Ireland
This trial is for people with scarring lung disease (pulmonary fibrosis) in Ireland. It aims to better understand and care for the condition, especially in families. The study will look at medical data and may help improve diagnosis and treatment.
DublinAges 18–85 - NCT07300696Recruiting
MRI to track lung disease changes in ILD
This study uses MRI scans to monitor how lung scarring changes over time in people with certain types of interstitial lung disease (ILD), like idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The goal is to see if MRI can be a helpful tool for tracking the disease without needing as many CT scans.
HeidelbergAges 18 years+ - NCT04190758Enrolling by invitation
Early arthritis study for RA, psoriatic arthritis, and psoriasis
This study looks at people with early arthritis related to rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, or psoriasis. Researchers want to understand how these early conditions behave and may help guide better treatment decisions.
GothenburgAges 18–80 - NCT06758700RecruitingPhase 2
Teniposide for advanced small cell lung cancer with c-Myc
This trial tests a chemotherapy drug called teniposide for people with a specific type of advanced small cell lung cancer that has gotten worse after prior treatment. The goal is to see if teniposide helps shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04467333Recruiting
Registry for lung cancer patients at a pulmonary hypertension center
This is a hospital registry study that collects information from people with lung cancer. It looks at pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs) in relation to lung cancer, which may help doctors understand risk and care needs.
Giessen, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT07490041RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR-NK cell therapy for refractory childhood rheumatic diseases
This trial is testing a new type of cell therapy (CAR-NK cells) that targets two markers on immune cells (CD19 and BCMA) to treat severe forms of childhood rheumatic diseases. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and can help when other medicines have failed.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 5 years+ - NCT04118660Recruiting
Thoracic specimen registry for adults with chest conditions
This study is a “specimen registry,” meaning it collects and stores samples from adults with chest (thoracic) diseases. It may help researchers better understand lung and chest conditions and improve future testing or treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04442789Recruiting
Study of lasting effects after COVID-19 hospitalization
This study looks at what health problems remain after a person was hospitalized for COVID-19. It may help doctors understand these long-lasting effects and how to care for people afterward.
GiessenAges 18 years+ - NCT05192057RecruitingPhase 4
Inhaling salty steam for lung MAC infection
This trial studies whether inhaling hypertonic (very salty) saline helps treat nodular-bronchiectatic lung disease caused by Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC). It may help reduce ongoing infection and symptoms if you have the right type of MAC lung pattern and have not recently started the usual MAC treatments.
NijmegenAges 18 years+ - NCT05270616Recruiting
Robotic or video-assisted lung surgery compared
This trial compares robotic surgery and video-assisted surgery for removing part of the lung (lobectomy or segmentectomy). It may help determine which approach is safer or works better for patients who can safely tolerate minimally invasive surgery.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–85 - NCT06189820RecruitingPhase 2
FAP protein as a marker for fibrotic lung disease
This trial is looking at a protein called FAP in the blood of people with fibrotic lung diseases. It aims to understand how this protein might be used as a marker to help doctors better diagnose and track these conditions.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06247397Recruiting
High-flow therapy for long-term oxygen users
This trial tests if adding high-flow oxygen therapy to your usual long-term oxygen therapy can help you breathe better. It is for people with COPD or ILD who use oxygen at home for at least 15 hours a day.
Karlskrona, Blekinge CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT06451029Recruiting
Preventing diseases caused by smoking
This study is looking at ways to prevent smoking-related diseases. It enrolls long-term smokers who are age 50 or older and who are not planning to quit.
Milan, Italy, MilanAges 50 years+ - NCT06923098Recruiting
PET/CT vs. CT for lung biopsy
This study compares two ways to guide a needle biopsy in people with suspected lung cancer: using a CT scan alone or using a combined PET/CT scan. The goal is to see which method better helps doctors get a clear diagnosis with fewer needle passes.
Bhubaneswar, OdishaAges 18 years+ - NCT06925373Recruiting
Housing and living conditions for better health
This study aims to learn how housing and living conditions affect health. It invites adults living in certain public housing sites in Birmingham to share their experiences to help improve community well-being.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung diseases?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 427 recruiting lung diseases 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 lung diseases 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 lung diseases 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.
