This study tests how resting healthy adults respond to breathing low levels of ozone (a common air pollutant) compared to clean air. Researchers will measure lung function and signs of inflammation in your blood or breath.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–35 - 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+ - 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 - NCT06644898Recruiting
Walking on slopes to improve balance in COPD
This study tests whether walking on different slopes (like hills) can help people with COPD improve their balance. It compares different types of incline walking to see which works best.
Istanbul, Eyüp SultanAges 40 years+ - NCT06950515Recruiting
Anesthesia vs sedation for lung nodule biopsy
This trial compares general anesthesia with conscious sedation during a special ultrasound-guided lung biopsy. It aims to find which approach is safer and more comfortable for diagnosing small lung lesions.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06947460RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR-T cell therapy for resistant lupus, sclerosis, and Sjögren's lung disease
This trial tests a special immune cell therapy (CAR-T cells targeting CD19 and BCMA) for people with lupus nephritis, systemic sclerosis, or Sjögren's-related lung blood vessel disease that hasn't improved with usual treatments. The goal is to see if this one-time cell infusion can calm the overactive immune system and improve symptoms.
Beijing, China,BeijingAges 10–65 - NCT06947473RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T-cell therapy for lupus, sclerosis, and Sjogren's
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CAR T-cells from umbilical cord blood) for people with certain autoimmune diseases that haven't responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if targeting two proteins (CD19 and BCMA) can help calm the overactive immune system.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 6–65 - NCT06940427RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new PET scan for lung scarring
This trial is testing a new type of PET scan (FAPI PET) to help doctors see if lung scarring (fibrosis) is getting worse or getting better. It may help decide if a treatment change is needed.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT06937905RecruitingPhase 3
Tarlatamab vs chemo for advanced NEC after one prior treatment
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug called tarlatamab, which targets the DLL3 protein on cancer cells, versus standard chemotherapy for people with advanced neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC). You may qualify if your NEC has gotten worse after just one prior platinum chemotherapy and your tumor has DLL3.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT04114435Recruiting
Heart and lung testing in extremely premature babies
This study looks at how the hearts and lungs work in babies born very early (before 29 weeks). It may help researchers understand why some babies develop breathing and heart circulation problems and how to measure their recovery.
Montreal, QuebecAges 1 week–5 years - NCT04106479Recruiting
Baby heart ultrasound study in newborn congenital heart defects
This study records newborn heart measurements (using medical imaging) to compare babies with certain congenital heart defects to healthy-term babies. The goal is to see how well one test matches another, which may help doctors better understand heart conditions in newborns.
Montreal, QuebecAges birth–1 week - NCT06714513RecruitingPhase 1
TB vaccine study in older adults aged 55 to 74
This study tests a new tuberculosis (TB) vaccine (ID93+GLA-SE) in healthy adults aged 55 to 74. It aims to see if the vaccine is safe and can help protect against TB, especially in people who may have latent (inactive) TB infection.
Gwangmyeong, Gyeonggi-doAges 55–74 - NCT06925295RecruitingPhase 2
Xenon MRI to guide radiation for lung cancer
This trial tests whether a special MRI that uses xenon gas can help doctors better plan radiation therapy for lung cancer. You may join if you are scheduled for stereotactic body radiation therapy for your lung cancer.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–80 - NCT06923267Recruiting
Ultrasound to check heart function during breathing trials
This trial tests if using ultrasound to monitor your heart during a breathing test can help predict if you will need the breathing tube again. It is for people on a ventilator for at least 24 hours who are at higher risk of needing the tube reinserted.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - NCT06929897Enrolling by invitation
Comparing Two Ablation Methods for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pulmonary?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,310 recruiting pulmonary 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 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 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.
