Recruiting studies
- NCT07191080Enrolling by invitation
Using advanced genetic testing to diagnose hard-to-find respiratory infections
This study uses a powerful genetic test (next-generation sequencing) to find the cause of respiratory infections when standard tests fail. It may help identify hard-to-detect viruses, bacteria, or fungi in your lung or airway samples.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 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+ - NCT05973201Recruiting
Virtual reality to ease anxiety and pain during lung scope
This study tests whether virtual reality (VR) can reduce anxiety and pain and shorten the time during a non-emergency breathing tube/airway procedure in the ICU. If you’re eligible, you may use VR during your first bronchoscopy during this hospital stay.
Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18 years+ - NCT06601998Recruiting
Heart health after severe pneumonia
This study looks at how heart health changes in people who have recovered from severe pneumonia, including COVID-19. It compares survivors to healthy people and those with heart risk factors.
AlexandroupoliAges 18 years+ - NCT07337993Recruiting
Fungal chest infection: washing the chest cavity
This study tests a chest-washing procedure (lavage) for people with a fungal infection in the space between the lung and chest wall. It aims to see if this extra step helps clear the infection before or instead of surgery.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges Any age - NCT06168032Recruiting
COVID-19 vaccine for lung cancer patients
This trial is testing how well the COVID-19 vaccine works for people with lung cancer to prevent another infection. It also looks at certain biomarkers in your blood that might help predict your body's immune response.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT03120481Recruiting
Check how respiratory health changes in people without lung problems
This trial enrolls adults who recently had a chest X-ray as part of routine health screening and did not show major abnormal findings, and who do not have significant breathing symptoms. It may help researchers understand changes in respiratory health over time and improve how respiratory disease risk is monitored.
Seoul, SeoulAges 19–90 - 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 - NCT04775134Recruiting
Checking leftover COVID virus after recovery
This study looks for whether small amounts of the COVID virus are still present in the lungs after infection. It may help doctors understand how long the virus can remain and inform future care, using tissue removed during a medically needed lung procedure.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT05860387Recruiting
Testing faster diagnosis of serious lung fungal infection
This study aims to detect invasive lung aspergillosis earlier by testing samples from your lungs and measuring specific lab markers. It may help doctors start the right antifungal treatment sooner when the infection is suspected.
Havířov, Moravian-Silesian RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT06585020RecruitingPhase 2
Inhaled antibiotic for Mycobacterium xenopi lung infection
This trial tests an inhaled antibiotic (amikacin liposome) for people with a lung infection caused by a germ called Mycobacterium xenopi. The goal is to see if this treatment can help fight the infection with fewer side effects.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT07076238Recruiting
Phage therapy for hard-to-treat bacterial infections
This study looks at how well phage therapy works for people with stubborn bacterial infections, like NTM. If your doctor is already considering phage therapy as part of your care, this trial may help track your response.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07395297Recruiting
Airway clearance therapy for ICU lung infections
This trial tests a new airway clearance device in ICU patients with pneumonia. It may help clear mucus from your lungs and improve breathing without needing a breathing tube.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05773001RecruitingPhase 1
Study of an immune treatment for ozone-related lung inflammation
This early-phase study tests how an immune-targeting treatment affects inflammation in the lungs after ozone exposure. It may help researchers understand—and eventually reduce—lung inflammation triggered by air pollution.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–55 - NCT04439916Recruiting
Preventing CMV after lung transplant in special donor/recipient pairs
This study looks at how to prevent and monitor a virus called CMV after a lung transplant. It is for adults who are not carrying CMV themselves, but who receive lungs from donors who are CMV-positive, and it may help tailor safer follow-up care after transplant.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT04921943RecruitingPhase 4
Hypertonic saline to treat MAC lung infection
This trial tests whether inhaled hypertonic saline can improve symptoms and lung health in people with a specific lung infection called MAC. It targets adults with confirmed MAC infection and bronchiectasis who are not already on certain MAC medications.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06620185Recruiting
Flu immunity study: Vaccination and infection in lungs
This study looks at how your lungs and lymph nodes respond to flu infection and the nasal flu vaccine. It will help researchers understand how to create better protection against the flu.
LondonAges 18–55 - NCT07211529Recruiting
Nerve block during chest surgery to reduce complications
This trial tests whether a numbing injection near the spine (paravertebral block) given during keyhole chest surgery can lower the risk of problems after surgery. It might help patients recover more comfortably.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT07301320RecruitingPhase 2
Epetraborole for Mycobacterium abscessus lung infection
This study tests an investigational medication called epetraborole for people with a chronic lung infection caused by Mycobacterium abscessus bacteria. You may be able to join if your infection is stable enough to delay standard treatment and you have symptoms like cough, fatigue, or weight loss.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT06341543Recruiting
CMV blood test to guide treatment after organ transplant
This study uses a blood test (QuantiFERON-CMV) to help decide whether people with a silent (no symptoms) CMV infection after a solid organ transplant need treatment. If you have a low-to-moderate level of CMV in your blood without fever or organ issues, this trial may help your doctor choose the safest approach.
Grenoble, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06625944Recruiting
How viral infections affect lung disease
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+ - NCT05592626RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
T cell activator STAR0602 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests an experimental drug called STAR0602 that aims to boost your immune system's T cells to fight advanced solid tumors. It's for patients whose cancer has not responded to standard treatments or for whom such treatments are not suitable.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02299921Recruiting
Alcohol and drug effects on immunity in ICU breathing patients
This study looks at how alcohol and other drugs can affect the body’s immune system in people who are very sick in the ICU due to breathing problems. It may help doctors better understand immune changes during critical illness and respiratory failure.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung infection?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 53 recruiting lung infection 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 infection 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 infection 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.
