Combination therapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new treatment combining stereotactic radiation (SFRT), the immunotherapy tislelizumab, and platinum chemotherapy for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that can't be removed with surgery. It aims to see if this combination helps shrink or control the cancer better.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–85 - NCT07131670Recruiting
Tracking symptoms during lung cancer chemoradiation
This study uses an app to track symptoms like pain and fatigue in patients with advanced lung cancer receiving chemotherapy and radiation. The goal is to see if digital check-ins can improve care and quality of life.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07132307Recruiting
Mouthpiece help after failed sleep apnea nerve stimulator
This study tests whether adding a special mouthpiece (mandibular advancement device) can help people whose sleep apnea wasn't fully treated by a nerve stimulator implant. You would use the mouthpiece at night and take home sleep tests to see if your breathing improves.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18–70 - NCT07132918RecruitingPhase 2
Heart-Sparing Radiation for Thoracic Cancers
This trial tests a new way to plan radiation for cancers in the chest area (like lung, esophageal, or thymus cancers) that aims to protect the heart from high doses of radiation. It is for people who need daily radiation for at least three weeks and who are expected to live more than a year.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT07133425RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new immune drug for resistant lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug (SAR445877) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose cancer continued to grow despite immunotherapy. It aims to see if this treatment can help when other options have stopped working.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07134387Recruiting
Long-term effects of BPD on family quality of life
This study looks at how bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a lung condition in premature babies, affects the long-term health and quality of life of children and their families. Parents or caregivers of children born early with or without BPD can join to compare experiences.
München, BavariaAges birth–18 years - NCT07134660Recruiting
Comparing two numbing medicines for lung surgery pain
This study compares two types of numbing medicine (liposomal vs. hydrochloride bupivacaine) injected near the ribs during lung surgery. The goal is to see which one provides better pain relief after the operation.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT07134673Recruiting
Long COVID and cell energy study
This study looks at how cells make energy in people with Long COVID compared to people who fully recovered. It involves a blood draw, a small muscle sample, and a skin biopsy to understand why symptoms last.
Jette, Brussels CapitalAges 18 years+ - NCT07135401Recruiting
Improving liver MRI with breath-holding and oxygen
This study tests whether breathing pure oxygen during an MRI scan can help patients hold their breath longer and produce better images of the liver. It might make the scan more comfortable and reliable for people who have trouble holding their breath.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT07135427RecruitingPhase 4
Genes and vaccines in alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency
This study looks at how genetic differences in alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency affect immune response to a pneumonia vaccine. It may help find better ways to prevent lung infections.
