Vena cava filter data study for specific filter type
This study checks outcomes and safety using real-world health data from people who received a specific type of vena cava filter. It may help improve future care by understanding how these devices perform after placement.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05895409Recruiting
Study risk factors in progressive lung scarring
This study looks at what factors contribute to worsening lung scarring seen on scans in people with certain lung diseases. Results may help doctors better understand and predict who will worsen over time.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–80 - NCT05903001Recruiting
Breathing muscle testing to help track lung disease
This study checks whether measurements of your breathing muscle (the diaphragm) can act as a useful “biomarker” to track lung disease. You might be asked to do breathing tests and follow study instructions, and your results may help researchers better monitor COPD, asthma, fibrosis, or pulmonary hypertension.
Aachen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT05908955Recruiting
Atrial fibrillation ablation with extra vein targeting
This trial studies a modified ablation procedure that targets the superior vena cava in addition to the pulmonary veins to help stop episodes of paroxysmal (coming and going) atrial fibrillation. It may help people whose symptoms continue despite antiarrhythmic medicines.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40–75 - NCT05925764Recruiting
AI tool to help grade lung adenocarcinoma biopsies
This trial tests an artificial intelligence (AI) method that reads whole slide pathology images to classify how aggressive your lung adenocarcinoma is. It may help doctors diagnose the lung cancer grading system more accurately using existing lab slides after surgery.
Zunyi, GuizhouAges 18–85 - NCT05934487Recruiting
Monitoring device trial for stable heart failure symptoms
This trial tests whether a wearable home monitoring system (myCordella™) can help people with moderate heart failure (NYHA class II or III) by tracking heart pressure and supporting follow-up care. It may help detect changes earlier so clinicians can adjust treatment sooner.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05934565Recruiting
Using mindfulness coaching to help people move more
This trial studies a program that uses mindfulness coaching to help people with chronic lung disease (COPD) and/or heart failure (HF) be more physically active. You may benefit if you can safely start exercising and track your steps using a Fitbit.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 40 years+ - NCT05948904Recruiting
Cryogenic catheters tested in donated lung tissue
This study tests a technique using a special cold (cryogenic) catheter to collect samples (biopsy) and destroy abnormal lung tissue (ablation) in lungs outside the body. It’s aimed at improving how pulmonary (lung) lesions could be diagnosed and treated in the future.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT05965024Recruiting
Using ctDNA blood tests to predict lung cancer return after surgery
This study checks whether a special blood test (ctDNA) taken before and after surgery can predict whether non-small cell lung cancer will come back. If it works, it may help doctors spot recurrence earlier and guide follow-up care after tumor removal.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05967117RecruitingPhase 4
Low-iodine dye for chest CT images
This trial tests whether using a lower amount of iodine dye during a chest CT scan can still produce good images. It may help doctors see chest structures clearly while using less iodine for the scan.
Bucheon-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT05986318RecruitingPhase 2
Reducing breathing issues from lung radiation in people with ILD
This trial tests whether a combination of two medications (dexamethasone and N-acetyl cysteine) can reduce breathing problems caused by radiation to lung tumors in patients who have both lung cancer and fibrotic interstitial lung disease (ILD). It aims to find a better way to manage side effects from radiation.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05996159Recruiting
Using very high power for short duration to treat atrial fibrillation
This study tests a new way to perform a common procedure (pulmonary vein isolation) for people with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Instead of using the standard amount of energy for a longer time, this method uses a very high amount of energy for a very short time. This might make the procedure faster and just as safe.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05997056RecruitingPhase 2
Nab-sirolimus for neuroendocrine tumors of gut, lung, or pancreas
This trial tests a new drug, nab-sirolimus, for people with certain types of neuroendocrine tumors that have spread or can't be removed by surgery. It's for those who haven't tried a similar treatment before.
Newport Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06001645Recruiting
Lung biomarkers and air leaks in severe lung injury
This study looks for markers in the blood and signs of air trapped in the lung tissue of people with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It uses CT scans to understand why air leaks happen and if certain lab tests can predict them.
CagliariAges 18 years+ - NCT06006884Recruiting
Understanding long-term lung effects after COVID-19
This study looks at why some people develop long-term lung problems after COVID-19. It compares people who had severe COVID-19 and were hospitalized to those who had mild infections and recovered at home.
