New drug combo vs standard for EGFR-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding a new targeted drug (SHR-A2009) to the standard pill aumolertinib works better than aumolertinib alone for people with advanced lung cancer that has an EGFR mutation. It's for those who haven't had treatment yet.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07183657Recruiting
Tracking inhaler use in lung disease
This study looks at how well people with COPD or asthma use their inhalers. It aims to understand common problems and find ways to improve treatment adherence.
Hradec KrálovéAges 18 years+ - NCT07185035RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing natural killer cells for leftover lung nodules
This trial is testing a new treatment using your own immune cells (called NK cells) to fight leftover high-risk lung nodules that cannot be surgically removed. It is for people who have already had some cancerous nodules removed and are looking for another option.
NanjingAges 18–70 - NCT07185178Recruiting
Video game breathing exercises for asthma-COPD overlap
This trial tests if breathing exercises performed through video games can improve respiratory function in people with Asthma-COPD Overlap Syndrome (ACOS). It may help those who have breathing difficulties but are otherwise stable.
Kocaeli, IzmitAges 40–80 - NCT07185659Recruiting
Walking Exercise for COPD Patients
This study looks at whether a walking exercise program can help people with COPD (a lung condition) feel better and breathe easier. It is designed for people who are currently in the hospital and can do gentle walking.
New Taipei City, Xindian Dist.Ages 40–100 - NCT07186699Recruiting
Understanding lung cancer in people with past alcohol or drug use
This study looks at the experiences of people with lung cancer (NSCLC) who also have a history of alcohol or drug use. It aims to help doctors better understand and support patients facing both challenges.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07186725Recruiting
Home sleep monitor for obstructive sleep apnea
This trial tests a new home-based sleep monitor that goes under your mattress. It may help people with obstructive sleep apnea who are using a mouthpiece (MAD) as treatment.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–80 - NCT07186933Recruiting
Ventilator settings to protect lungs during high-risk surgery
This study compares two ways of setting the ventilator during surgery to reduce lung complications. Researchers will test whether using a lower 'driving pressure' (a setting on the breathing machine) helps protect the lungs better than usual care. It is for adults having high-risk surgeries under general anesthesia with a breathing tube.
PátraiAges 18 years+ - NCT07187206RecruitingPhase 3
Fetoscopic surgery for severe diaphragmatic hernia
This trial tests if a special surgery (FETO) done while the baby is still in the womb can improve survival for babies with a severe form of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). The surgery places a small balloon in the baby's windpipe to help the lungs grow. We are looking for pregnant women whose baby has a left-sided CDH with a lung-to-head ratio (LHR) less than 30%, or a right-sided CDH with LHR less than 45%, and whose liver is herniated into the chest.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18–50 - NCT07187193RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose chemo plus thalidomide for untreated LCH
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, low-dose cytarabine and thalidomide, for adults with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) that has not been treated before with systemic therapy. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and effective for people with LCH in multiple body areas or multiple spots in one system.
BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT07188675Recruiting
Breathing muscle training for bronchiectasis
This trial tests whether a special breathing exercise device can help people with bronchiectasis. You may qualify if you are between 18 and 30, have been diagnosed with bronchiectasis, and are feeling stable.
IstanbulAges 18–30 - NCT07189260Recruiting
Breathing exercises to prevent pneumonia after hip fracture
This trial tests whether simple breathing exercises before and after surgery can help prevent pneumonia in people with hip fractures. It is not a medication study—you'd use a small device to help you breathe deeply.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT07189455RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing ZG006 to chemotherapy for relapsed small cell lung cancer
This study compares a new drug called ZG006 against standard chemotherapy for people with small cell lung cancer that has come back after prior treatment. The goal is to see if ZG006 works better or has fewer side effects.
