Tainan, TaiwanAges 30–85 - NCT06751537Recruiting
Testing a wearable device for COPD severity
This trial tests a wearable device (WearME) that tracks your breathing and activity to see how well it can measure COPD severity. It may help you and your doctor better understand your lung function at home.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21–100 - NCT06749262Recruiting
Inclined vs. standard exercise for COPD
This study compares walking on an incline to standard walking for people with COPD. It aims to find which exercise method is better for improving breathing and mobility.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 45–80 - NCT06717659Recruiting
Probiotics for lung rehab in COPD patients
This trial tests if adding probiotics (healthy bacteria you take as a supplement) to your regular lung rehab program helps people with COPD breathe better and feel stronger.
New Taipei CityAges 18 years+ - NCT06702696Recruiting
Study on aronia berries for COPD inflammation
This trial tests whether eating aronia berries (black chokeberries) can help reduce inflammation in people with COPD. It may offer a natural way to manage COPD symptoms.
Istanbul, ZeytinburnuAges 50–80 - NCT06682832Recruiting
Comparing lung health in COPD and PRISm patients
This study compares how people with COPD, those with a lung condition called PRISm (Preserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry), and healthy individuals feel and function. It aims to understand differences in symptoms and daily life.
AnkaraAges 40 years+ - NCT06677268Recruiting
Sleep and breathing rehab study for COPD patients
This study tests whether a respiratory rehabilitation program improves sleep quality in people with COPD. It may help you breathe better and sleep more restfully.
AmiensAges 50 years+ - NCT06670443Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for COPD breathing and leg muscles
This trial tests if electrical stimulation can help people with COPD strengthen both their breathing and leg muscles. It may improve your ability to move and breathe more easily.
DokkiAges 40–65 - NCT06652776Enrolling by invitation
Italian COPD patient registry study
This study is creating a registry to better understand Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in Italian patients. It will collect information from people with COPD to improve care and research.
Milan, MilanAges 40 years+ - NCT06652204Recruiting
Questionnaire for caregivers of COPD patients
This study tests a French questionnaire for caregivers of people with COPD. It aims to better understand caregiver burden and support needs.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT06653413Recruiting
Using dynamic chest x-ray to diagnose COPD
This study tests if a new type of chest x-ray (dynamic chest x-ray) can help diagnose COPD. You would breathe normally and deeply while the x-ray takes images for 20 seconds. This could be a more comfortable way to check for COPD compared to standard breathing tests.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 40–80 - NCT05495698Recruiting
One or multiple inhalers plus app support for COPD
This trial looks at whether using one or more inhalers, together with a smartphone app, can help people manage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) better. You may be eligible if you have COPD, need “triple therapy” (three medicine types), and can use the app and surveys.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 40 years+ - NCT05717192Recruiting
Bronchoscopy treatment to shrink severe emphysema using heat
This trial studies a bronchoscopy procedure that uses heat (thermoablation) to reduce over-inflated lung tissue in people with severe emphysema. If you qualify, it aims to improve breathing and walking ability after trying standard treatments first.
BerlinAges 40–75 - NCT06603246RecruitingPhase 1
Study of inhaled GDC-6988 for mucus lung diseases
This study tests an inhaled medicine (GDC-6988) to see if it is safe and helps clear mucus from the lungs in people with mucus-related lung diseases like chronic bronchitis, COPD, or bronchiectasis. You may qualify if your lung function is fairly stable and you produce daily mucus.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 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.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 305 recruiting pulmonary disease, chronic obstructive (copd) 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 pulmonary disease, chronic obstructive (copd) 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 pulmonary disease, chronic obstructive (copd) 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.
