Kogarah, New South WalesAges Any age - NCT04339270RecruitingPhase 4
Testing azithromycin in chronic lung disease with frequent flare-ups
This Phase 4 study tests whether a long course of azithromycin can reduce flare-ups in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who have had recent exacerbations. It also looks at mucus properties and how flare-ups happen.
BordeauxAges 40–85 - NCT04375280Recruiting
Study of mobility problems in people with long-term illnesses
This study observes how people with chronic health conditions affect their ability to move and do everyday activities. It may help researchers better understand mobility limits and what factors influence them.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18–90 - NCT04391335Recruiting
Breathing tests to spot lung scarring after stem cell transplant
This study checks new ways to measure breathing in children who had a stem cell transplant to better detect a lung condition called bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome. If you join, you’ll do breathing and imaging tests, and researchers will look for patterns that may help with diagnosis.
Toronto, OntarioAges 6–18 - NCT04419480Recruiting
Monitoring to help prevent complications after cardiogenic shock
This study tests a special monitoring approach (likely using an implanted device) to help prevent serious complications after you survive cardiogenic shock in the hospital. It may help the care team detect problems earlier so treatments can start sooner.
Falls Church, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04442711Recruiting
Study of worsening lung symptoms in people with IPF
This study looks at people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who are currently having a sudden worsening of breathing symptoms. It may help doctors better understand what happens during these flare-ups and how to manage them.
Hellerup, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT04478292RecruitingPhase 3
New treatment strategy for children with newly diagnosed liver cancer
This Phase 3 study tests a modified treatment plan for children newly diagnosed with hepatoblastoma, a type of liver cancer. It may help improve how well treatment works and how safely it can be given by using a structured approach.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 18 years - NCT04539977RecruitingPhase 2
PD-L1 antibody plus chemotherapy for limited-stage small-cell lung cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding a PD-L1 antibody to chemotherapy helps people with newly diagnosed limited-stage small-cell lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. It may benefit patients who have not had any prior cancer treatment for SCLC and can meet health and lab requirements.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04570163Recruiting
Registry tracking right-heart valve procedures and outcomes
This is a registry that collects information about people who have planned or recent right-heart valve procedures (such as tricuspid or pulmonary valve problems). It helps researchers understand what care is done and how patients do over time, which may improve future treatment planning.
BerlinAges 18–120 - NCT04615065Recruiting
Biobank study collecting emergency data for very sick patients
This study collects health and sometimes blood sample information from people arriving at the emergency department with high-risk or serious conditions. The goal is to build a large emergency “biobank” to help researchers better understand and improve urgent care.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT04664491Recruiting
Program to reduce COPD flare-ups with standardized care
This study tests whether a structured care program for COPD can lower how often your symptoms flare up. It may help by improving everyday management and preventing future worsening.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40 years+ - NCT04676828Recruiting
SPECT-guided radiation to avoid healthy lung in lung cancer
This study tests a special imaging-guided radiation plan that aims to treat lung cancer while reducing radiation to healthy lung tissue. It may help lower lung side effects while keeping the cancer treatment focused on tumor areas.
