This study compares two ways of seeing how well your lungs work: a special MRI scan and another scan that uses a different gas. It may help researchers find which imaging test best reflects lung function in people with COPD.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04200079Recruiting
Long-term follow-up study for people with COPD
This study follows people with COPD over time to better understand their lung health and how it changes. It may help researchers and doctors learn what factors affect breathing and long-term outcomes.
Kingston, OntarioAges 40–85 - NCT02803242Recruiting
Patient research network for people with lung symptoms
This trial enrolls adults to help build a patient-powered research network for chronic lung disease. If you join, you’ll likely be asked to complete surveys or provide information to help researchers learn how symptoms and health outcomes change over time.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT02755974Recruiting
Study of COPD flare-ups in adults with reduced lung function
This study follows people with COPD flare-ups (sudden worsening of breathing) to better understand what happens and what might help. You may be asked for consent and lung-function tests if you meet the breathing and age requirements.
LondonAges 40–100 - NCT03014609Recruiting
Testing cardiovascular risk in people with COPD
This trial studies cardiovascular (heart and blood vessel) risk in people who have stable COPD or a recent worsening of COPD. It may help researchers understand which risks to monitor during and after a COPD flare and how to prevent complications.
Grenoble, La TroncheAges 18–85 - NCT05306743Recruiting
Quality program for high-risk COPD, tested with primary care teams
This study looks at how well a quality-improvement program (called CONQUEST) helps people with higher-risk chronic lung disease (COPD) when delivered through primary care teams. It compares the program given right away versus usual care for a while, then the program later.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06163131Recruiting
How endobronchial valves affect diaphragm movement in emphysema
This trial measures how well your diaphragm (the main breathing muscle) moves after you get endobronchial valves (tiny one-way valves in your airways) for emphysema. It helps doctors see if the valves improve your breathing muscle function.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT07428785Recruiting
Measuring lung and blood volume in COPD
This study looks at how COPD affects the amount of air your lungs can hold and the total blood in your body. The goal is to better understand the disease, which may help improve future treatments.
CopenhagenAges 45–80 - NCT07854210Recruiting
High-flow nasal oxygen versus non-invasive ventilation for COPD
This trial compares two breathing support methods for people hospitalized with COPD and mild-to-moderate carbon dioxide retention. It aims to see if high-flow nasal oxygen is as effective as the standard mask-based ventilation.
Al Mansurah, Dakahlia GovernorateAges 40 years+ - NCT06198309Recruiting
Predicting worsening COPD in severe patients
This study builds a tool to predict which COPD patients are likely to have worsening symptoms. It may help your doctor better manage your care if you have severe COPD.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40–85 - NCT07860008Recruiting
Breathing and step exercises for COPD wellness
This study tests a program combining breathing training with step exercises to see if it improves breathing, exercise ability, and quality of life in people with COPD. You may join if you have COPD and are able to do light exercise and fill out questionnaires.
New Taipei City, New Taipei CityAges 40 years+ - NCT07870655Enrolling by invitation
Long-term effects of exercise habits in COPD
This study looks at how exercise habits from an earlier COPD exercise trial affect patients over the long term. It helps understand if the benefits last and how to keep patients active.
CopenhagenAges 40–80 - NCT05772013RecruitingPhase 4
Checking azithromycin prevention for COPD flare-ups
This Phase 4 study looks at optimizing how people with COPD take azithromycin to reduce flare-ups (exacerbations). If you already take azithromycin regularly, the trial may test ways to improve how it’s used safely.
CambridgeAges 40 years+ - NCT06068322Recruiting
Very intense interval training for people with COPD
This study tests whether a very intense, short burst of exercise (supramaximal high-intensity interval training) is safe and effective for people aged 60 and older with or without COPD. It aims to see if this type of exercise can improve fitness and daily life.
Hasselt, DiepenbeekAges 60 years+ - NCT07842510Recruiting
Controlled oxygen for copd flare-ups in the icu
This trial tests whether giving oxygen in a carefully controlled way (using a target range) works better than standard oxygen treatment for people in the ICU with a COPD flare-up. It aims to see if the controlled approach leads to better outcomes, like helping you recover faster.
Mahdia, Mahdia GovernorateAges 40 years+ - NCT07848815Recruiting
Lung cancer checks for COPD patients
This study looks at people with COPD to find lung cancer earlier using risk-based checks. It may help catch cancer sooner and guide better care.
