Recruiting studies near Washington, D.C.
- NCT05452941Recruiting
Pneumonia vaccine study for hospitalized adults 65 and older
This study tests a pneumococcal vaccine designed for 20 types of bacteria in older adults who are hospitalized with suspected community-acquired pneumonia. It aims to see how the vaccine works in real-world care and whether it affects how pneumonia happens or progresses.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 65 years+ - NCT07322146Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Shorter antibiotics for children with common infections
This study tests whether shorter courses of antibiotics are as effective as longer ones for children hospitalized with pneumonia, skin infections, or urinary tract infections. It may help children get back to normal faster and reduce side effects.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 2 months–17 years - NCT05123755RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new medicine in hospitalized pneumonia patients needing oxygen
This Phase 2 trial tests an investigational medicine (given in increasing doses) for hospitalized people with pneumonia who need supplemental oxygen. It aims to see if the medicine is safe and potentially helps the pneumonia process in the early hospital period.
Hyattsville, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT00077909Recruiting
Study of Lung Proteins in Patients With Pneumonia
This research study examines proteins in fluid collected from your lungs during a breathing tube procedure (bronchoscopy) to better understand pneumonia. By studying these proteins, researchers hope to improve how doctors diagnose and treat lung infections.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–99 - NCT00001352Recruiting
Understanding Why Some People Get Fungal Infections
This study looks at genetic reasons why some people are susceptible to a serious fungal infection called cryptococcosis. Researchers will collect blood samples and perform genetic testing to understand the immune system differences that make certain individuals more vulnerable to this infection.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT00006150Recruiting
Understanding Hyper-IgE Syndrome: Natural History and Genetics
This study follows people with or suspected Hyper-IgE syndrome (a rare immune disorder causing repeated infections and skin problems) to understand how the condition develops, how best to manage it, and which genes are involved. Researchers also welcome healthy relatives of patients to help identify genetic patterns.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 month–120 years - NCT06521502Recruiting
Studying inflammation in the heart and lungs in the ICU
This study collects blood samples from people in the ICU with sudden heart or lung problems caused by inflammation. The goal is to learn more about these conditions and improve future treatments.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04987840Enrolling by invitation
Hospital program to reduce unnecessary lung culture tests in kids
This trial studies a hospital quality-improvement program that aims to use fewer “respiratory culture” tests in pediatric intensive care units (PICUs). It may help reduce unnecessary testing while maintaining good care for critically ill children.
Baltimore, MarylandAges Any age - NCT04278404Recruiting
Drug safety study for children already on certain medicines
This study measures how certain medicines move through the body and checks their safety in children. It may help doctors better understand dosing and side effects in kids who are already receiving these treatments, or in some kids who recently tested positive for COVID-19.
Baltimore, MarylandAges birth–20 years

Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
