Nasal high flow vs. mask for COPD flare-up
This study compares two types of breathing support for people having a severe COPD flare-up with high carbon dioxide and acidic blood. It tests if a gentle air flow through the nose (nasal high flow) works as well as a mask (non-invasive ventilation) to help you breathe better.

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+ - NCT06188065Recruiting
Eosinopenia and Recovery in Severe COPD Exacerbation
This study is looking at people admitted to the hospital for a severe COPD flare-up. It checks if a low level of eosinophils (a type of white blood cell) in the blood is linked to how quickly you recover from the flare-up.
North ShieldsAges 35 years+ - NCT06201403Recruiting
COPD: Breathing Muscle Strength and Flexibility Study
This study looks at the strength and flexibility of muscles you use to breathe, including muscles in your chest and neck. If you have moderate-to-severe COPD and have been stable on your medications, it may help researchers understand how these muscles are affected.
Istanbul, ZeytinburnuAges 18–75 - NCT06247397Recruiting
High-flow therapy for long-term oxygen users
This trial tests if adding high-flow oxygen therapy to your usual long-term oxygen therapy can help you breathe better. It is for people with COPD or ILD who use oxygen at home for at least 15 hours a day.
Karlskrona, Blekinge CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT06253013Recruiting
CHARM-COPD program of care after a flare-up
This study tests a program of care called CHARM-COPD for people who recently left the hospital after a COPD flare-up. It offers virtual pulmonary rehab or remote monitoring to help you recover and manage your condition at home.
Toronto, OntarioAges 40 years+ - NCT06275230Recruiting
Growing lung stem cells from COPD patients
This trial aims to grow lung stem cells and create mini-lungs (organoids) from the tissue of people with COPD. It may help researchers understand the disease better and develop new treatments.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–55 - NCT06283004Recruiting
Walking training in COPD: comparing different slopes
This study tests whether walking on different types of slopes improves exercise ability in people with COPD. It aims to find the best slope training to help you breathe easier and walk farther.
Istanbul, Eyüp SultanAges 40 years+ - NCT06283966RecruitingPhase 3
Triple inhaler for COPD with heart risk
This study tests a triple-combination inhaler (budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol) to see if it can help protect the heart and lungs in people with COPD who also have heart problems or high risk for them.
Athens, AlabamaAges 40–80 - NCT06326957Recruiting
Online program for chronic breathlessness
This trial tests an internet-based self-guided program to help adults with chronic breathlessness. It is designed for people who still feel short of breath despite treatment for conditions like COPD, lung disease, or cancer.
LondonAges 18–110 - NCT06331416Recruiting
Home monitoring after COPD flare-up
This trial tests if people with COPD can use a home monitoring system after a flare-up to help doctors track their recovery. It aims to reduce hospital visits and improve care.
TriesteAges 18–90 - NCT06347536RecruitingPhase 3
Support pack after hospital stay for COPD flare-up
This study tests whether giving a 'rescue pack' with medications after leaving the hospital helps people with COPD avoid another flare-up. It is for patients recently discharged after a COPD worsening that required a hospital stay.
BarnsleyAges 40 years+ - NCT06349174Recruiting
Lung valve treatment for severe COPD
This study tests whether placing tiny valves in the airways can help people with severe COPD breathe easier. It is for people who still have trouble breathing despite quitting smoking and completing pulmonary rehab.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40–85 - NCT06366113Recruiting
Morning vs. afternoon exercise for COPD rehab
This study tests whether the time of day you exercise (morning vs. afternoon) affects how much you improve during a COPD rehabilitation program. It may help you get the most benefit from your rehab sessions.
LilleAges 18–85 - NCT06376994RecruitingPhase 3
Clean air study for COPD
This study tests if using air cleaners at home improves lung health in people with COPD. If you qualify, you may get an air cleaner for your home and be followed for 12 months.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 40 years+ - NCT06377410Recruiting
Ivy extract vs NAC for COPD: Which works better?
This study compares two treatments – a dry powder ivy extract and a common mucus-thinning medicine called NAC – to see which is safer and more effective for people with stable COPD. If you have COPD and are over 40, this trial could help find a better option to manage your symptoms.
