MRI study of lung fluid changes in acute heart failure
This study uses MRI scans to measure lung fluid (pulmonary edema) in people hospitalized for acute heart failure. It aims to see how well the lung fluid responds to standard treatments like water pills (diuretics) given in the first couple of days.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT04078412Enrolling by invitation
Registry for adults with nontuberculous lung infection
This is a research registry that collects information from adults diagnosed with nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung disease. It may help doctors better understand the disease and improve care over time.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT02924818Recruiting
Research study for adults with long-term breathing lung diseases
This study enrolls adults with chronic lung conditions like COPD, cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis, or interstitial lung disease. It’s designed to learn more about these illnesses and to develop better ways to study or improve care.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - NCT06199180Recruiting
Comparing two ablation methods for repeat atrial fibrillation treatment
This trial tests a newer type of energy (pulsed field ablation) against the standard heat-based method (radiofrequency) for people who have already had one ablation and now have atrial fibrillation again. The goal is to see which works better for keeping your heart in a normal rhythm.
GroningenAges 18–80 - NCT06477458Recruiting
AI analysis of CT scans for lung health before chest surgery
This study uses a computer program (deep learning) to analyze your chest CT scan and lung function test results before surgery. The goal is to see if the AI can help doctors better assess your lungs and plan your operation.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06856525RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
MRI scan to study lung health in e-cigarette users
This study tests a new type of MRI scan to see how e-cigarettes affect your lungs. It's for young adults who vape nicotine regularly. The results may help doctors understand vaping-related lung damage.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–35 - NCT06833827Recruiting
Clot removal vs clot-busting drugs for severe lung clots
This study compares two ways to treat a large blood clot in the lungs that is causing life-threatening symptoms. One method uses a device to remove the clot, the other uses medicine to dissolve it.
Leiden, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07295938RecruitingPhase 2
Traditional Chinese medicine as an add-on treatment for mycobacterium abscessus in the lungs
This study tests if adding traditional Chinese medicine to standard treatment helps people with a lung infection called Mycobacterium abscessus. It may improve recovery and reduce side effects.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06513416Recruiting
Gut bacteria and lung problems after surgery in older adults
This study tests whether the bacteria in your gut are linked to lung complications after a long abdominal surgery. If you are 65 or older and having a scheduled upper abdominal surgery, researchers want to understand how your microbiome affects your recovery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 65 years+ - NCT05674994RecruitingPhase 3
Steroid versus placebo for sudden worsening of lung scarring
This Phase 3 trial studies whether glucocorticoid (steroid) medicine helps people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who have a sudden flare-up, compared with an inactive placebo. You may be helped if steroids improve breathing and recovery during these acute episodes, but the study is designed to test that clearly.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT07174076RecruitingPhase 4
Cordyceps sinensis to prevent MAC lung disease from coming back
This study looks at whether cordyceps sinensis, a natural fungus, can help prevent a lung infection caused by MAC bacteria from returning. If you have finished treatment for MAC lung disease and your sputum tests are negative, you may be able to join.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT06384885Recruiting
Ultrasound for swimming lung fluid in open water athletes
This study uses ultrasound to check for fluid buildup in the lungs (swimming-induced pulmonary edema) in athletes who swim in open water races. It helps doctors understand how common this condition is and how to spot it quickly.
Parker, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07575503Recruiting
Advanced CT scan to detect small blood clots in the lungs
This study tests a new type of CT scan (photon-counting CT) to see if it's better at finding small blood clots in the lungs. If you have symptoms like sudden shortness of breath, chest pain, or fainting and doctors suspect a blood clot, this trial may help confirm the diagnosis with clearer images.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06613412Recruiting
Robot-assisted lung biopsy for suspicious lung spots
This trial tests if a remote-controlled robotic bronchoscope can safely and reliably take tissue samples from hard-to-reach spots in the lung. If you have a suspicious lung nodule that needs a biopsy, this study may help determine whether the robot-based approach works as well as standard bronchoscopy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07683728Recruiting
Observational study of progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) in China
This study is a registry that collects information from people in China who have progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF), a lung condition that gets worse over time. It aims to better understand the disease and help doctors improve care.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pulmonary?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,304 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.
