Lung Cancer Biomarker Study (BIRD Biobank)
This study collects blood, tissue, and other samples from people with lung nodules, suspected lung cancer, or confirmed lung cancer to find better ways to diagnose and treat the disease. By joining, you help researchers discover new biomarkers that could improve care for future patients.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT06062212Recruiting
Effects of lung pressure on recovery in severe ARDS on ECMO
This trial looks at how changes in lung pressure during breathing might affect recovery in patients with severe ARDS who are on a heart-lung bypass machine (ECMO). It could help doctors improve treatment for people with this serious lung condition.

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.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 8 months–1.8 years - NCT06070688Recruiting
A test to tell if your breathing infection is bacterial or viral
This study tests a new way to quickly figure out if a respiratory infection is caused by bacteria or a virus. Knowing this could help doctors choose the right treatment faster and avoid unnecessary antibiotics.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06072690Recruiting
COPD and Heart Health Study
This study looks at how COPD affects your breathing and heart health. It is for people who are newly diagnosed with COPD and have a history of smoking.
Kaunas, Kaunas CountyAges 40 years+ - NCT06074614Recruiting
Breathing and brain control in Parkinson's disease
This study looks at how the brain controls breathing in people with Parkinson's disease compared to healthy volunteers. It may help us understand breathing problems that can occur in Parkinson's.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06074380RecruitingPhase 4
Surfactant therapy comparison for preterm infants
This trial compares a new method of giving surfactant (a substance that helps babies' lungs work better) to preterm infants who have breathing problems. The goal is to see if giving surfactant through a thin tube without a breathing tube works as well as the usual method.
Evanston, IllinoisAges Up to 2 days - NCT06102330Recruiting
Helping parents decide about home breathing machines
This study helps parents like you who are deciding whether their child should have a breathing machine at home. You'll use a website or get support by phone to learn about your options and share what matters most to your family, so doctors and families can make better choices together.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06102499Recruiting
Comparing oxygen readings from different pulse oximeters in the ICU
This study tests how well different pulse oximeters measure oxygen levels compared to a direct blood test in patients in the intensive care unit. It aims to find which devices are most accurate for monitoring oxygen.
Montreal, QuebecAges birth–100 years - NCT06104956Recruiting
Weaning from high-flow oxygen therapy in the ICU
This trial is testing a way to safely reduce high-flow oxygen therapy for patients in the ICU who have low oxygen levels. It might help find the right time to stop this treatment.
BloisAges 18–90 - NCT06113861Recruiting
Better TB testing for kids in Bolivia
This trial tests new ways to diagnose tuberculosis (TB) in children with breathing problems. It aims to make TB detection faster and more accurate for kids who might have the infection.
Santa CruzAges 2 months–14 years - NCT06114667Recruiting
Nasal high flow vs. mask for COPD flare-up
This study compares two types of breathing support for people having a severe COPD flare-up with high carbon dioxide and acidic blood. It tests if a gentle air flow through the nose (nasal high flow) works as well as a mask (non-invasive ventilation) to help you breathe better.
Montpellier, MontepllierAges 18–85 - 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+ - NCT06148467Recruiting
Understanding breathing patterns and adjusting ventilator support
This study looks at a specific breathing pattern called reverse triggering in people with ARDS (a serious lung condition) who are on a ventilator. The goal is to see how adjusting the ventilator settings affects this pattern and improves breathing coordination.
GuadalajaraAges 18–90 - NCT06168019Recruiting
Flu and COVID-19 study for pregnant women in Nagpur
This study follows pregnant women in Nagpur to understand how influenza and COVID-19 affect them and their babies. Participants will be contacted twice a week for symptom checks and may provide blood samples at key points during pregnancy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for respiratory?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 966 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.
