Saline rinse for trapped lung infections
This trial tests if adding a simple saltwater rinse to standard chest tube drainage helps clear stubborn lung infections. It might be an option if you have an infected fluid pocket in your chest that isn't draining well.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - 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.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges birth–20 years - NCT05756582Recruiting
Screening for hidden TB infection in hospital staff and students
This trial checks hospital workers and certain medical students to see how many have “latent TB,” meaning TB bacteria in the body that may not cause symptoms. The goal is to better understand who might need follow-up and prevention.
RomaAges 18–72 - 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 - NCT05824988Recruiting
Testing antibiotic dose levels for MAC lung infection
This trial studies how much medicine is needed (based on lab results) to treat MAC lung disease, an infection in the lungs. If you already have MAC and are receiving the recommended core antibiotics, your care may help researchers link treatment details to lab measurements.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07228702Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Bacteriophage therapy for one patient with lung infection
This is a special program for one patient with a lung infection from Mycobacterium abscessus. The trial uses a treatment with bacteriophages, which are viruses that attack specific bacteria.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges Any age - NCT07095361RecruitingPhase 4
Daily enzyme therapy for infected pleural fluid
This trial tests a once-daily enzyme treatment given through a chest tube to clear infected fluid from around the lungs. It may help people with complicated pneumonia or empyema who still have fluid buildup after initial drainage.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT07211529Recruiting
Nerve block during chest surgery to reduce complications
This trial tests whether a numbing injection near the spine (paravertebral block) given during keyhole chest surgery can lower the risk of problems after surgery. It might help patients recover more comfortably.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT06476210RecruitingPhase 4
New drug combo for drug-resistant tuberculosis
This trial tests a three-drug combination (bedaquiline, delamanid, and linezolid) to see if it's safe and works well for people with multi-drug resistant or rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis. It may offer a new treatment option if standard drugs aren't working.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07453966Recruiting
Lung vibration therapy for people on breathing machines with lung infection
This study tests a device that delivers gentle vibrations to the lungs to help clear infection in people who are on a breathing machine. It may help improve oxygen levels and recovery.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06785246Enrolling by invitation
