Prone breathing position test for severe lung failure
This trial studies whether turning patients onto their stomach (a positioning technique called prone positioning) changes a breathing-monitoring measure in people with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). If you qualify, the goal is to see if this positioning can improve how well your lungs exchange oxygen while you are on a breathing machine.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT05536076Recruiting
Breathing treatment to help recovery after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether a breathing-support treatment (for abnormal breathing during sleep) can improve breathing recovery in people living with a spinal cord injury. It aims to see if treating higher carbon dioxide levels and sleep-breathing problems leads to better breathing and recovery.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18–89 - NCT05536219Recruiting
Study how autoantibodies affect virus levels in severe lung infections
This study measures blood immune “autoantibodies” that may affect how much virus is in the body during severe respiratory infections. It may help doctors understand which patients are more likely to have higher virus levels and could guide future treatment choices.
Bron, RhoneAges Any age - NCT05537922Recruiting
Study uses data to tailor lung cancer care with immunotherapy
This study collects and analyzes medical information (and sometimes tissue samples) to help personalize treatment plans for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer using immunotherapy. It may help researchers find which people benefit most and how treatment can be better matched to each patient.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05538806Recruiting
Testing NovoTTF device use in routine treatment for pleural mesothelioma
This trial studies using the NovoTTF-200T device as part of regular care for people with pleural mesothelioma when surgery that could cure the cancer isn’t an option. It may help doctors understand how well this device fits into real-world treatment and outcomes.
Gauting, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT05539014Recruiting
Study of newly diagnosed tuberculosis patients at Avicenne Hospital
This study follows people who are newly treated for tuberculosis, including lung and non-lung (extra-lung) cases. It may help doctors better understand tuberculosis and how patients respond after treatment starts.
BobignyAges 18–80 - NCT05539482Recruiting
Community education to help detect COVID-19 early and prevent illness
This study tests community-based health education in Hong Kong to help people recognize COVID-19 early, get vaccinated, and use everyday self-protective steps. It may help participants learn practical ways to lower their risk and respond sooner if symptoms appear.
Hung HomAges 12 years+ - NCT05539560Recruiting
Olfactory training for loss of smell after COVID-19
This trial studies whether daily smell training can improve smell loss caused by COVID-19. It may help people regain smell and possibly reduce related symptoms like distorted smells.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT05539716Recruiting
Treating sleep apnea to study effects on metabolism
This study tests a sleep apnea treatment approach and looks at how it may affect your body’s metabolism. You may be eligible if you’re an adult with sleep apnea and meet health and medication rules, and possibly if you already use a PAP machine regularly.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–70 - NCT05541744Recruiting
Using tumor gene data to help guide care for lung cancer
This study looks at gene-related information from a lung tumor sample and pairs it with special imaging to better understand non-small cell lung cancer. If you have a confirmed diagnosis and the right samples/tests, this may help researchers match patients to the most useful information for planning treatment.
Hualien CityAges 20 years+ - NCT05543954RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET/CT scan test to see lung cancer using a new tracer
This early-phase study tests a special whole-body scan (PET/CT) that uses injected tracers to help show where lung cancer may be. It may help researchers see tumors more clearly and compare different tracers during the same time window.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05544240RecruitingPhase 1
First-in-human immunotherapy study for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests SYNC-T, an immunotherapy, in people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers. It aims to find the safest dose and see whether the treatment can shrink or control tumors.
Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT05549635Recruiting
Database and blood sample registry for hypersensitivity pneumonitis
This trial is building a patient database and collection of samples from people with hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), a lung condition caused by breathing in an allergy-like trigger. Your information and samples may help researchers learn how HP is diagnosed and tracked over time.

Test of a lung cancer prognosis kit after early tumor removal
This study tests a lab “prognosis kit” to better predict how early-stage lung cancer may progress after the tumor has been fully removed. You may be asked to provide tumor samples and possibly blood/body fluid samples so researchers can validate the kit.

Chemo and immunotherapy plus chest radiation for stage III lung cancer
This trial studies a treatment plan that combines chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation to the chest for people with unresectable stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help by delivering anti-cancer drugs while also shrinking tumors with targeted radiation, especially for people who are not able to have the standard “chemo and radiation at the same time.”
