Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18 years+ - NCT06515184RecruitingPhase 3
Coenzyme Q10 for Gulf War illness study
This study tests whether coenzyme Q10 (a natural supplement) can improve symptoms of Gulf War illness, such as fatigue and body pain. It involves taking the supplement or placebo for several months, with regular check-ins via Zoom and a few blood draws at a local lab.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 50 years+ - NCT06670261Recruiting
Testing a new way to diagnose breathing problems
This study uses computer modeling to understand nasal breathing. It compares people without nasal symptoms and those with chronic nasal blockage from a deviated septum, to see if modeling can help diagnose the cause.
BordeauxAges 18–69 - NCT00471250Recruiting
Donate lung samples to help future lung and airway research
This study collects lung fluid and tissue (and sometimes nasal or breath samples) to store for future research. It aims to understand lung and airway biology, and you may help by donating samples during a short procedure.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 5–100 - NCT02272049RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Hyperpolarized gas MRI scan for lung imaging in people 6+
This trial tests a special MRI scan that uses an inhaled, tracer gas to create clearer pictures of how your lungs work. It may help doctors see lung function more precisely in children and adults who can safely complete the scan.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 6 years+ - NCT02316379RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Breathing MRI test to map lung airspaces in adults
This early trial uses a special “breathing” MRI scan to create a detailed picture of how air moves in the lungs. It’s mainly a calibration study to set up the scan correctly, and you may help improve the test for future use.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07641413Recruiting
How lungs and heart change over a lifetime of health
This study follows healthy adults over decades to understand how lung and heart function naturally change with age. Researchers will measure your breathing and heart health to help them spot early warning signs of disease in future patients.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 24–68 - NCT06179485Enrolling by invitation
Ketamine vs. Etomidate for emergency breathing tube: long-term study
This study compares how two common medicines (ketamine and etomidate) used during emergency breathing tube placement affect long-term recovery. It is only for patients already enrolled in another related trial.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07306468Recruiting
