Recruiting studies
- NCT06722365Recruiting
Fetal lung study using ultrasound

Madison, WisconsinAges 18–45 - NCT06726590Recruiting
Gene testing for better medication outcomes
This study collects blood, urine, and cheek swabs, along with health information, to see how your genes affect your response to medications. You may be eligible if you take many medications or are on blood pressure or depression medication.
Bryan, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06719258Recruiting
Trial on heated humidifiers for breathing tubes
This trial studies how heating and adding moisture to the air breathed through a breathing tube (called a heated humidifier) affects patients in intensive care. It focuses on people who need the breathing tube for a longer time or special protective settings.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06244160Recruiting
High-flow oxygen therapy for spinal cord injury
This trial tests if high-flow oxygen therapy can help people with spinal cord injuries between the neck and upper back. It is designed for those admitted to a spinal injury ward within 24 to 48 hours of injury.
CardiffAges 18 years+ - NCT05816954Recruiting
Imaging test to predict lung injury risk in ARDS
This study looks at scan images to better predict the risk of a serious lung complication (barotrauma) in people with ARDS. It may help doctors choose safer treatment strategies in the ICU.
Catanzaro, CalabriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06503016RecruitingPhase 3
Phosphocreatine for medical emergency team patients
This study tests if a medicine called phosphocreatine helps people in the hospital who have a serious heart or lung emergency. It aims to see if the medicine can improve recovery and prevent further complications.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06715891RecruitingPhase 3
Raphamin for colds in children ages 3 to 12
This trial tests if Raphamin can safely treat common cold symptoms in children. It is for kids who have had cold symptoms for less than 24 hours and have a fever of at least 100°F with other symptoms like stuffy nose or sore throat.
GatchinaAges 3–12 - 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 - NCT06716502Recruiting
Testing a new portable breathing support device
This trial tests a new portable device that helps people breathe without using a tube in the windpipe. It may be an option for older adults who need breathing support but are not in the hospital for a sudden illness.
Lecce, ApuliaAges 65 years+ - NCT06707623Recruiting
Comparing rehab therapy vs physiotherapy for dysfunctional breathing
This trial compares two different types of therapy for people with dysfunctional breathing: a rehab program guided by a special exercise test (CPET) versus standard physiotherapy. The goal is to see which approach helps your breathing feel better.
Athens, AtticaAges 18 years+ - NCT06711614Recruiting
Can a special diet protect lungs from woodsmoke?
This study tests whether a special diet can help protect lungs from the effects of woodsmoke. If you join, you'll eat provided meals for several weeks while researchers check your breathing.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 19–40 - NCT06715306Recruiting
IV vs. Oral Antibiotics for Common Infections
This trial compares starting antibiotics through a vein (IV) to taking them by mouth for common infections like pneumonia, urinary tract infections, or skin infections (cellulitis). The goal is to see if oral antibiotics work just as well without the need for an IV line.
Aabenraa, Southern DenmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT06007547RecruitingPhase 4
Preventive surfactant therapy for preterm babies
This trial tests whether giving surfactant (a foam that helps lungs stay open) before breathing problems start can help very premature babies (born before 30 weeks) breathe better. It might reduce the need for a breathing tube.
Evanston, IllinoisAges Up to 15 minutes - NCT06001645Recruiting
Lung biomarkers and air leaks in severe lung injury
This study looks for markers in the blood and signs of air trapped in the lung tissue of people with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It uses CT scans to understand why air leaks happen and if certain lab tests can predict them.
CagliariAges 18 years+ - NCT06670443Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for COPD breathing and leg muscles
This trial tests if electrical stimulation can help people with COPD strengthen both their breathing and leg muscles. It may improve your ability to move and breathe more easily.
DokkiAges 40–65 - NCT06677268Recruiting
Sleep and breathing rehab study for COPD patients
This study tests whether a respiratory rehabilitation program improves sleep quality in people with COPD. It may help you breathe better and sleep more restfully.
AmiensAges 50 years+ - NCT06665100RecruitingPhase 2
Study of PUL-042 for RSV and Related Viruses in Immune-Compromised Patients
This trial tests an inhaled medicine (PUL-042) for people with blood cancers or who have had a stem cell transplant and now have a respiratory virus (parainfluenza, RSV, or human metapneumovirus). The goal is to see if the drug can help clear the virus and improve symptoms.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06655805Recruiting
Registry for automated breathing support in adults
This trial collects data from adults in the ICU who need oxygen therapy, non-invasive ventilation, or a breathing tube with a machine. It looks at how automated settings affect care.
Sankt Gallen, Canton of St. GallenAges 18 years+ - NCT06636890Enrolling by invitation
Testing a new method for detecting certain bacteria in lung infections
This study checks if a special test (Xpert Carba-R) can find a type of drug-resistant bacteria, called CRE, in fluid from the lungs and in rectal swabs. It might help doctors treat lower respiratory tract infections more effectively.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–90 - NCT06643039Recruiting
Study on hospital-acquired respiratory virus infections
This trial looks at respiratory viruses caught in the hospital. If you are an adult patient or healthcare worker with flu-like symptoms that started while in the hospital, you may help researchers learn more about these infections.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT06642454Enrolling by invitation
Breathing-guided nerve stimulation for Parkinson's disease
This study tests a type of nerve stimulation (vagus nerve) for Parkinson's disease. It compares a method that uses your breathing cycle to deliver stimulation versus standard stimulation. The goal is to see which works better for movement and non-movement symptoms.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 40–80 - NCT06627283Recruiting
Does breathing muscle training help tongue muscles?
This trial tests whether training the muscles you use to breathe can also improve your tongue muscle function. It looks for healthy adults between 18 and 65 who can follow instructions in French or Dutch.
LeuvenAges 18–65 - NCT06622902Recruiting
How flow changes affect CO2 in preemies on high-flow breathing support
This study watches how changing the flow of air through a breathing device (high-flow nasal cannula) affects carbon dioxide levels in preemies. It helps doctors learn the safest way to adjust breathing support for fragile infants.
HaifaAges Any age - NCT06615492Recruiting
Lung transplant study: comparing two ECMO methods
This study compares two ways of using a heart-lung machine (ECMO) during lung transplant surgery. The goal is to see if using ECMO only when needed works as well as using it for everyone. This could help reduce risks and improve recovery.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+

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.
