Recruiting studies
- NCT07395076Recruiting
Study of immune causes of acute respiratory distress

How respiratory infections affect daily life in older adults
This study looks at how acute respiratory infections (like the flu, COVID-19, or RSV) affect older adults' daily functioning. If you are 60+ and in the hospital with one of these viruses, your participation would help doctors understand the lasting impact on independence and health.
Rochester, New YorkAges 60 years+ - NCT07379242Recruiting
Lung recruitment test for breathing failure patients on a ventilator
This trial uses a special imaging technique (electrical impedance tomography) to find the best ventilator settings for patients with acute breathing failure. It may help doctors tailor treatment to improve lung function.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07366593Recruiting
Immune & respiratory health in Down syndrome kids with pneumonia
This study looks at how the immune system and breathing are affected in children with Down syndrome who have pneumonia. It aims to find patterns that could lead to better treatments.
CairoAges 1–6 - NCT07370623Recruiting
AI system to help assess breathing trouble in children
This study is testing an artificial intelligence system that helps doctors evaluate breathing problems in children. It uses a camera and clinical data to see if the AI can make accurate assessments in the emergency room.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges birth–12 years - NCT06795971Recruiting
Comparing oxygen methods for hypoxemic respiratory failure
This trial compares three ways of giving extra oxygen to people with low blood oxygen levels: a face mask with continuous pressure, a noninvasive ventilator, or high-flow oxygen through the nose. The goal is to see which method helps people avoid needing a breathing tube.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07352774Enrolling by invitation
Laughter therapy for breathing and pain in older adults
This study tests whether laughter therapy can improve breathing and reduce pain in people aged 60 and older. It may be a fun, drug-free way to feel better.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 60 years+ - NCT07359287Recruiting
Study on antibiotic use for respiratory infections
This study tests a program to help doctors prescribe antibiotics more carefully for common respiratory infections like colds, flu, bronchitis, and sinusitis. It may lead to better treatment for you.
CaenAges Any age - NCT07334379RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized treatment for hospitalized patients with breathing problems
This study tests a personalized approach for hospitalized patients with acute breathing problems. It uses a blood test to guide whether they receive a common steroid or a targeted medication (tocilizumab) to reduce inflammation, with the goal of improving recovery.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07342205RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Fecal transplant for sepsis-related lung injury
This study tests if transferring healthy gut bacteria (fecal microbiota transplant) can help people with acute lung injury caused by sepsis. It aims to reduce inflammation and improve breathing.
Shanghai, PutuoAges 18 years+ - NCT07317050RecruitingPhase 3
Aprotinin for acute respiratory distress syndrome
This trial tests a drug called aprotinin for people with moderate to severe ARDS who are on a breathing machine. The goal is to see if it helps treat the lung injury.
Ciudad Real, Ciudad RealAges 18 years+ - NCT07317154RecruitingPhase 1
Dendritic cell vaccine for HPV type 6 recurrent respiratory papillomatosis
This Phase 1 trial is testing a vaccine made from your own immune cells (dendritic cells) that may help your body fight the virus causing recurrent papillomas in your voice box. It is for people whose papillomas are caused by HPV type 6, who have had at least one recurrence in the past year.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07314593Recruiting
Fish oil for preventing colds and respiratory infections
This trial tests whether taking fish oil with free fatty acids can help healthy adults avoid colds and other respiratory infections. If you are generally healthy and willing to take fish oil capsules daily, you may be able to join.
ReykjavikAges 18–80 - NCT07307066Recruiting
Ventilation feedback study for lung protection in ARDS
This study tests a computer system that gives real-time breathing machine advice to help protect the lungs of patients with severe lung injury (ARDS). It may help doctors adjust the ventilator settings to cause less damage.
Qujing, YunnanAges 18–75 - NCT07314905RecruitingPhase 3
Treatments for respiratory infections in community settings
This study is testing different treatments for people with respiratory infections like the flu who are not in the hospital. You may be able to join if you have a positive test, have symptoms like cough or fever, and start within a few days of feeling sick.

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.
