Understanding long-term lung effects after COVID-19
This study looks at why some people develop long-term lung problems after COVID-19. It compares people who had severe COVID-19 and were hospitalized to those who had mild infections and recovered at home.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05459116Recruiting
Record breathing effort to protect lungs during ventilation
This trial studies a way to measure how hard a patient is breathing and how the lungs and diaphragm are working while someone is on a breathing machine. The goal is to help the team use a “lung- and diaphragm-protective” ventilation strategy and see if it improves care.
Edegem, AntwerpAges 4 weeks+ - NCT06554353Recruiting
Breathing and exercise tests for shortness of breath
This study looks at how well two breathing tests work for people who have shortness of breath. You will do a breathing test and an exercise test to help doctors better understand your symptoms.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03800017Recruiting
Muscle strength and exercise function in lung scarring
This study looks at how well skeletal (muscle) function supports exercise in people with interstitial lung diseases (including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis). It may help better understand fitness and breathing limits, which can guide rehabilitation choices and future care.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 40–80 - NCT07516184Recruiting
Testing a breathing device to diagnose asthma
This study tests a portable handheld device that measures airway function to help diagnose asthma. Researchers want to see if this device can accurately identify asthma in people with breathing symptoms like wheezing and shortness of breath.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT07676435RecruitingPhase 2
Fisetin trial for healthy lung aging
This study tests whether a natural supplement called fisetin can help slow lung decline in older adults who are either lifelong nonsmokers or long-term smokers. You would take fisetin or a placebo for a period and be monitored regularly.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - 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+ - NCT05350332Recruiting
Testing how lung air volume affects airway narrowing during sleep testing
This study looks at whether changing lung air volume affects how open or blocked your upper airway is during a drug-induced sleep test (DISE). It may help guide surgical choices for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07261293Recruiting
Blood flow restriction exercise for COPD patients
This study tests whether adding mild blood flow restriction to aerobic exercise can improve lung function, exercise capacity, and inflammation in people with stable COPD. You would exercise on a bike or treadmill while wearing soft cuffs on your legs to lightly restrict blood flow.
IstanbulAges 40–80 - NCT06077019Recruiting
How lung function affects exercise in fit adults
This study looks at how your lung function may limit your exercise capacity, even if you are very active. If you are a healthy, highly fit adult aged 18-39, you may be able to help researchers better understand this connection.
CopenhagenAges 18–39 - NCT06286891Recruiting
Frailty and lung function after pulmonary endarterectomy
This study looks at how frailty, physical ability, and lung function change in people who have had surgery to remove blood clots from the lungs (pulmonary endarterectomy). It aims to help doctors better understand recovery after this procedure.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT05976919Recruiting
Testing different treatable traits in lung disease and controls
This study looks at “treatable traits” (specific features of lung disease) across people with chronic airflow problems, including cystic fibrosis, and compares them with healthy volunteers. You may be asked to do several breathing and exercise tests to see how well different traits can be measured and how they relate to symptoms.
Leeds, LeedsAges 18–65 - NCT07419555Recruiting
Belgian study on lung function over time
This study tracks lung function over time in people with chronic lung disease. It helps doctors understand how lung health changes and may improve future care.
EdegemAges 18 years+ - NCT05103670Recruiting
PET/CT lung scan to assess recovery after pulmonary embolism
This study uses a special scan (PET/CT) and an inhaled/linked tracer to measure how well air and blood flow work in different lung areas after a pulmonary embolism. It’s meant to better understand regional lung function and how rehabilitation may help some people recover.
BrestAges 18–99 - NCT05427136Recruiting
Study early lung problems after childhood cancer treatment
This study looks for early lung (breathing) problems in children after certain cancer treatments, using lung tests and sometimes MRI scans. It may help doctors spot breathing complications earlier and guide better care.
BaselAges 4–22 - NCT05473520RecruitingPhase 3
Doxycycline add-on therapy for lung improvement in tuberculosis
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding doxycycline to standard TB medicine can improve lung function and reduce lung tissue damage. It aims to see if patients recover better by targeting the lung response to TB.
Kota Kinabalu, SabahAges 21 years+ - NCT06110403RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a long-acting inhaler for COPD symptoms and lung function
This trial tests a once-daily inhaler that combines a long-acting bronchodilator with a corticosteroid to see if it improves breathing, lung function, and quality of life in people with moderate-to-severe COPD who have significant shortness of breath.
LilleAges 40–75 - NCT06494254Recruiting
Predicting lung function after lung cancer surgery
This study looks at how well your lungs work after surgery for lung cancer. It uses special scans and breathing tests to help doctors better predict your recovery.
Saint Leonards, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT07073950RecruitingPhase 4
A study on a triple inhaler for COPD with hyperinflation
This study tests a triple-combination inhaler (budesonide, glycopyrronium, formoterol) against a placebo inhaler to see how it affects your heart and lungs if you have COPD and over-inflated lungs.
AhrensburgAges 40–80 - NCT07116460Recruiting
Air filters for asthma in low-income housing
This study tests whether air filters placed in homes can reduce asthma symptoms in children and teens living in low-income housing in Northern Manhattan and the South Bronx. If you have asthma and are between 7 and 18 years old, you may be able to join.
New York, New YorkAges 7–18 - NCT07289789Recruiting

This study tests whether Buteyko or Pilates breathing, combined with neck exercises, can improve lung function and chest expansion in people with asthma and forward head posture. It may help you breathe better if your asthma is under control and you have that posture issue.
IslamabadAges 18–40 - NCT07356310Recruiting
Body scan and breathing test for airway health
This trial uses a special breathing test to measure how your airways react. It helps doctors understand airway tone and reactivity, which may relate to conditions like asthma.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung function tests?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 82 recruiting lung function tests 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 function tests 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 function tests 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.
