Recruiting studies
- NCT06769360Recruiting
Pressure support breathing trial for ICU patients
This trial tests a new way to set the breathing machine's pressure support based on your muscle effort. It may help you breathe more comfortably and improve recovery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07424014RecruitingPhase 4
Heliox and breathing control during exercise
This trial tests whether a special gas mixture called heliox (helium and oxygen) can help control breathing during exercise. It is for healthy, active adults age 18–40 who exercise regularly and have no major health problems.
Bloomington, IndianaAges 18–40 - NCT07422441Recruiting
Guided abdominal wall closure for large hernia repair
This trial tests a new way to close the abdominal wall after surgery for a large hernia, using lung compliance measurements to guide the closure. It aims to improve recovery by finding the best closure technique for each patient.
GdanskAges 18 years+ - NCT07419555Recruiting
Belgian study on lung function over time
This study tracks lung function over time in people with chronic lung disease. It helps doctors understand how lung health changes and may improve future care.
EdegemAges 18 years+ - NCT07420530RecruitingPhase 2
Exercise and breathing study for young adults with vocal cord issues
This study looks at how the vocal cords move during exercise in young adults who have trouble breathing while active. It may help researchers understand why this happens and how to better diagnose and treat it.
Bloomington, IndianaAges 18–26 - NCT07419438Recruiting
Airway device study for preterm babies needing breathing help
This study tests a supraglottic airway device (a tube that sits above the voice box) versus a face mask for helping premature babies breathe right after birth. It may help doctors choose the best way to support your baby's first breaths.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges birth–1 day - NCT05474196Recruiting
Monitoring pressures in the lungs for people with ARDS
This trial studies how pressure measurements from a special breathing and temperature monitoring system relate to fluid outside the lung blood vessels in people with ARDS. It may help doctors understand what those measurements mean and how to monitor patients more accurately.
Le Kremlin-BicêtreAges 18 years+ - NCT06123962Recruiting
Identifying lung injury subtypes to guide treatment
This study looks at different patterns in patients with a severe lung condition called ARDS, to better understand why some respond to treatments differently. You may help doctors learn how to personalize care.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07414108Recruiting
Predicting response to breathing support in COPD
This study looks at whether nighttime breathing problems can predict long-term success with a non-invasive breathing machine in people with COPD who have high carbon dioxide levels in their blood. The goal is to help doctors decide who will benefit most from this therapy.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT04670172Recruiting
Chronic sinusitis patient registry using a phone app
This study builds a real-world record of symptoms and outcomes in people with chronic sinusitis. You may help by using a smartphone app to report your symptoms over time.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT05724745Recruiting
3D lung breathing test during MRI versus standard spirometry
This study compares a new 3D MRI-based breathing test with the usual breathing test called spirometry. It may help doctors measure lung function more precisely in healthy people and in people with asthma, COPD, or after a double lung transplant.
Orsay, FranceAges 18–90 - NCT07402512RecruitingPhase 3
Study of deuremidevir for RSV in infants and young children
This trial is testing a new medicine called deuremidevir for babies and young children with RSV infection. It is for those who have symptoms like fast breathing and wheezing, and have been sick for no more than 96 hours.
Xiamen, FujianAges 1 month–3 years - NCT07399119Enrolling by invitation
Study on Wim Hof Method and Exercise in Healthy Young Adults
This trial tests how the Wim Hof method (a breathing and cold exposure technique) affects your heart and exercise performance during aerobic training. It is designed for healthy young adults.
Beirut, Tariq EL JedidaAges 18–25 - NCT07406295Recruiting
Breathing exercises to improve brain and immune health
This trial tests whether a daily breathing exercise device can improve blood flow to the brain and immune function in people with obesity. It may help reduce health risks linked to excess weight.
Tallahassee, FloridaAges 18–45 - NCT05783908Recruiting
Self-guided breathing help during MRI-guided radiotherapy for moving tumors
This study tests whether a self-guidance approach for breathing can improve radiotherapy sessions when the tumor moves during breathing and is treated with an MRI-guided machine. It may help make treatments more accurate and easier to follow during each session.
Dijon, Côte d'OrAges 1.5 years+ - NCT06829732Recruiting
Closed-loop oxygen control for ICU patients on a breathing machine
This trial tests a closed-loop system that automatically adjusts the oxygen level in your breathing tube, aiming to keep your oxygen levels in a safe range with less need for manual changes. It may help if you are in the ICU, need a breathing machine, and have low blood oxygen despite receiving extra oxygen.
Sabadell, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07391280Recruiting
Finding cancer, COPD, and heart failure early in the ER
This trial tests a computer program that looks at chest X-rays to help doctors spot early signs of cancer, COPD (a lung disease), and heart failure. It aims to catch these conditions sooner so patients can get the right care faster.
GlasgowAges 18 years+ - NCT07392086Recruiting
Comparing two types of ventilation during one-lung surgery
This trial compares two ways of helping you breathe during chest surgery: flow-controlled ventilation and volume-controlled ventilation. The goal is to see which method works better for oxygen and lung protection while one lung is temporarily deflated.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 18–80 - NCT04256798RecruitingPhase 3
Respiratory care after high-risk abdominal surgery
This trial looks at a breathing-focused care plan given around the time of major abdominal surgery to improve recovery and outcomes. You may be eligible if you’re having a large midline abdominal incision and can be followed after surgery.
Botucatu, São PauloAges 10–100 - NCT07383350Enrolling by invitation
Information sheets for better communication on antibiotics
This study tests if using simple information sheets helps you and your doctor talk better about infections like sore throat, sinusitis, or bronchitis, and make wise decisions about antibiotics — so you only get them when truly needed.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT05908227Recruiting
Testing nasal high-flow settings in stable preterm babies
This study tests how different nasal high-flow “flow strength” settings affect breathing stability in preterm infants. It may help clinicians choose settings that keep heart rate and breathing steadier.
Mainz, Rhineland-PalatinateAges 5 months–7 months - NCT06840717Recruiting
Genetic links to type 2 asthma in kids
This study looks at how certain genes might be connected to type 2 asthma in children. It aims to find out which kids are more likely to have asthma so doctors can better treat it.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 3–14 - 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+ - NCT06065215Recruiting
Early-life MRI to Predict Breathing Problems in Extremely Preterm Infants
This study uses an MRI scan to look at how the lungs develop in babies born very early (before 29 weeks of pregnancy). The goal is to see if early MRI images can help predict future breathing problems, so doctors can better support these infants.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for respiratory?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 922 recruiting respiratory 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 respiratory 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 respiratory 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.
