AI screening for pulmonary hypertension in scleroderma
This study uses artificial intelligence to find better ways to screen for pulmonary arterial hypertension (a type of high blood pressure in the lungs) in people with systemic sclerosis (scleroderma). The goal is to catch the condition earlier so treatment can start sooner.
Granada, AndalusiaAges 18–80 - NCT07237139Recruiting
Lung volume changes during breathing support in preterm infants

Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges Up to 4 weeks - NCT07239063Recruiting
Lung and colorectal cancer tissue test study
This study checks a new way to prepare large tissue samples from lung or colorectal cancer for faster testing. It may help improve how tumors are analyzed.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT07239661Recruiting
Acupuncture plus immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding electroacupuncture to a PD-1 inhibitor (a type of immunotherapy) can help people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have limited activity levels. It may improve treatment response and quality of life.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07239895RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Stem cell treatment for children with bronchiolitis obliterans
This early trial tests if airway basal stem cells can help children with a serious lung condition called bronchiolitis obliterans. It aims to improve lung function and reduce the need for oxygen or breathing support.
ShanghaiAges 4 weeks–18 years - NCT07240038Recruiting
Reducing breathing problems in NICU babies on ventilators
This study is testing a way to reduce the chance of a certain breathing problem (called NAV) in babies who need a breathing machine in the NICU. If your baby has been on the machine for two days or more, they may be able to join.
A Coruña, A CoruñaAges birth–6 months - NCT07240558RecruitingPhase 3
Flu vaccine study for organ transplant patients
This study tests whether a special flu vaccine, designed for a future pandemic, works safely in people who have had an organ transplant. It aims to find a better way to protect transplant patients from severe flu.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07241117RecruitingPhase 4
CHEST: Helping clinics use SMART for asthma
This study tests a program to help community health clinics use a special asthma treatment approach called SMART. The goal is to see if it improves asthma care and reduces flare-ups.
St Louis, MissouriAges 12 years+ - NCT07241182Recruiting
Mushroom extract supplement for lung cancer chemo patients
This study tests whether a supplement from a medicinal mushroom (Antrodia cinnamomea, also known as niu zhang zhi) can improve quality of life for people with lung cancer who are receiving platinum-based chemotherapy.
TaipeiAges 18–99 - NCT07241546RecruitingPhase 2
Inhaled study drug for people with mild allergic asthma
This trial tests an inhaled drug called ARO-RAGE to see if it can help people with mild asthma who have allergies. You'll take the drug and then do a special breathing test to see how your lungs respond.
