Recruiting studies
- NCT07281118Recruiting
Nerve freezing for pain after double lung transplant
This trial tests a procedure called intercostal cryoanalgesia, which freezes nerves in the chest to reduce pain after a double lung transplant. It may help you feel less pain and use fewer painkillers after surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06990711RecruitingPhase 1
Siltuximab for antibody-mediated rejection after lung transplant
This trial tests a drug called siltuximab to see if it can help treat a type of lung rejection called antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) in people who have had a lung transplant. You may be eligible if you are currently hospitalized for AMR and are already planning to receive standard treatments.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05586906Recruiting
Breath test to detect lung transplant problems early
This trial looks at a simple, noninvasive breath test to spot early lung transplant dysfunction after a lung transplant. Because it focuses on testing after the transplant, it may help your care team catch issues earlier.
ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT05284877Recruiting
Study of HPV and skin cancer after organ transplant
This study looks at how human papillomavirus (HPV) and skin cancer behave in people who have had a solid organ transplant. It also includes healthy people for comparison, to understand what might be different after transplant and immune medicines.
Copenhagen NV, Capital RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT05215327RecruitingPhase 2
Higher-dose flu vaccine vs standard dose after lung transplant
This trial tests whether a higher dose of flu vaccine works better than the standard dose for people who have had a lung transplant. It may help improve protection against seasonal flu while monitoring safety.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 16 years+ - NCT06514378RecruitingPhase 1
Safety of stem cells for chronic lung transplant rejection
This trial tests whether a single dose of stem cells given through a bronchoscope is safe for people whose lungs are failing after a transplant. It may help those with a condition called bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), a type of chronic rejection that makes it harder to breathe.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT07243964Recruiting
Predicting lung transplant outcomes with molecular analysis
This study uses advanced blood and tissue testing to predict how well a new lung will work after transplant. If you've had a lung transplant and are stable, you may help researchers improve care for future patients.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06706154Recruiting
Exercise capacity in kidney transplant recipients
This study looks at how well your body can handle exercise after a kidney transplant. It aims to understand your current fitness level, which can help guide your recovery and long-term health.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT06513091Recruiting
National lung transplant recipient registry study
This study collects information from all lung transplant recipients in the United States to track their health and outcomes over time. It helps doctors learn how to improve care for people who have had a lung transplant.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges Any age - NCT06853223RecruitingPhase 2
Immune drug to prevent lung transplant failure
This trial tests an immune-suppressing medicine to stop a serious complication called primary graft dysfunction that can happen soon after a lung transplant. It may help people who are already on the transplant waiting list and plan to receive a standard anti-rejection drug regimen.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05947071RecruitingPhase 2
Higher-dose flu vaccine versus standard dose in child transplant patients
This trial compares a higher-dose flu vaccine to the standard dose in children who recently received a kidney, heart, and/or liver transplant. It aims to see which dose better protects children against influenza while checking for safety.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 3–17 - NCT06066957RecruitingPhase 2
Oral letermovir to prevent CMV after heart or lung transplant
This trial tests if an oral medication called letermovir can prevent CMV infection in heart or lung transplant recipients who are at risk for CMV. It may offer a convenient option to protect against this virus after transplant.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06615492Recruiting
Lung transplant study: comparing two ECMO methods
This study compares two ways of using a heart-lung machine (ECMO) during lung transplant surgery. The goal is to see if using ECMO only when needed works as well as using it for everyone. This could help reduce risks and improve recovery.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT03500731RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lung and bone marrow transplant for lung and blood failure
This Phase 1/2 study tests a special lung-and-bone-marrow transplant approach for people with severe lung disease and bone marrow failure (low blood counts). The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and whether it can improve outcomes when standard long-term immune-suppressing medicines are a poor fit.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–60 - NCT07192458RecruitingPhase 2
High vs. Standard Dose Flu Vaccine in Lung Transplant
This study compares a high-dose flu vaccine to the standard dose in lung transplant recipients. It aims to see if a higher dose gives better protection against the flu.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05837663Recruiting
Study using blood tests to better assess lung cancer
This study looks at whether a specialized blood test can help doctors better assess lung cancer. It may be helpful if you are an adult who can safely participate and provide a sample for testing.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06706492Recruiting
Muscle oxygen and frailty in kidney transplant patients
This study looks at how well muscles use oxygen and how frailty affects kidney transplant recipients, especially those with weak breathing muscles. It may help understand why some patients feel more tired or weak after transplant.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT05502913RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant plus cancer immunotherapy for lung cancer
This trial studies whether giving a fecal microbiota transplant (a stool-based sample from a carefully screened donor) alongside immune checkpoint inhibitors can improve outcomes in people with lung cancer. It aims to change the gut bacteria to help the immune system work better against the cancer.
BeershebaAges 18 years+ - NCT03779854RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing graft-versus-host disease in kids after stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether removing certain immune cells (T cells) from the donor transplant can lower the risk of chronic graft-versus-host disease (long-term immune attack after transplant) in children and young adults with blood cancers. If you qualify, it may help improve transplant outcomes while tracking safety and side effects.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 6 months–26 years - NCT04787822Enrolling by invitation
Follow-up for people in a lung transplant research group
This study checks long-term health and well-being in people who previously joined a lung transplant research study. It may help doctors understand long-term changes after transplant and improve future care.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 13 years+ - NCT06422273Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
TXA vs Saline to Prevent Bleeding After Lung Transplant Biopsy
This trial tests whether a medication called tranexamic acid (TXA) can help prevent bleeding after a lung transplant biopsy. It compares TXA to a saltwater solution (saline) to see if it reduces the need for procedures to stop bleeding.
Grand Rapids, MichiganAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT05041140Recruiting
Xenon MRI test for lung problems after stem cell transplant
This study uses a special MRI test with xenon gas to look at lung function in adults who had a stem cell transplant and now have breathing-related complications. It may help doctors measure lung impairment more clearly and track changes over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05896839RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
