DundeeAges 18 years+ - NCT06883617Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for sleep breathing problems
This trial tests a new device that uses gentle electrical stimulation to improve breathing during sleep. It is for people who have moderate to severe sleep-disordered breathing and cannot use or do not get enough help from other treatments like CPAP.
Asunción, ParaguayAges 18 years+ - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Goodyear, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07272434RecruitingPhase 3
RSV vaccine trial for adults 60 and older
This trial tests a new RSV vaccine for people aged 60 and above. RSV is a common virus that can cause serious breathing problems in older adults. The study will see if the vaccine is safe and helps protect you from RSV.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 60 years+ - NCT07276724RecruitingPhase 3
Study of GB-0895 for severe uncontrolled asthma
This study tests a new medicine called GB-0895 for people with severe asthma that is not well controlled by current treatments. The medicine is added to your usual asthma medications to see if it can reduce asthma attacks and improve breathing.
Northridge, CaliforniaAges 12–80 - NCT07276789RecruitingPhase 2
Single-dose dye imaging for lung cancer surgery
This trial tests a single dose of a special dye (LS301-IT) that helps surgeons see lung cancer cells more clearly during surgery. It aims to make lung cancer removal more precise and complete.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07274852RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a radioactive drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug (177Lu-BL-ARC001) for people with advanced lung, breast, head and neck, or other solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug can target and shrink tumors while limiting side effects.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT07269782RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery treatment for stage II-III lung cancer
This study tests two investigational drugs (HLX43 and serplulimab) given before surgery to people with stage II to III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink the tumor and make it easier to remove completely during surgery.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07270744Recruiting
Lung Sound Study with Eko Devices
This study uses a digital stethoscope to record lung sounds from adults with or without lung conditions. It aims to collect data that may help improve detection of breathing problems.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 18 years+ - NCT05589831Recruiting
Test breathing support and brain health in premature babies
This study checks how a type of breathing machine support affects brain health in very premature infants. It may help doctors choose safer breathing support strategies to protect the brain.
Toronto, OntarioAges 3 days+ - NCT05598983Recruiting
Remote monitoring to catch COPD flare-ups early
This study tests a non-contact, at-a-distance monitoring system to help detect COPD flare-ups early. If you’ve had flare-ups before, it may help track changes sooner and support better care decisions.
