Neoadjuvant drug combo for stage 3 EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests two drugs, sacituzumab tirumotecan and limertinib, given before surgery to people with stage 3 non-small cell lung cancer that has an EGFR mutation. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink the tumor enough to allow surgery.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07323420Recruiting
Breathing patterns for kids during dental anesthesia
This study tests whether changing how your child breathes during dental surgery (the ratio of breathing in vs. out) affects how well they recover from anesthesia. The goal is to find a breathing pattern that helps children wake up more smoothly and safely.
KirikkaleAges 2–12 - NCT07323641RecruitingPhase 2
Telisotuzumab Vedotin and Osimertinib for Advanced Lung Cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—telisotuzumab vedotin and osimertinib—for people with a specific type of advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has stopped responding to osimertinib alone. The goal is to see if adding the second drug can help control the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07323732RecruitingPhase 2
BIO 300 and radiation for lung cancer with lung scarring
This trial tests if adding BIO 300 to chest radiation is safe and helps people who have both non-small cell lung cancer (early stage) and interstitial lung disease (scarring of the lungs). It aims to find better treatment options for this specific group.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07324707RecruitingPhase 2
Asthma study testing PA9159 inhaled spray
This trial tests an inhaled asthma medication, PA9159, in adults with stable or mild-to-moderate asthma. It aims to see if the drug improves lung function and is safe. You may qualify if you have asthma with some airflow limitation and have not had recent severe flare-ups.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–75 - NCT07324941Recruiting
EEG and caffeine timing in premature infants
This study uses EEG brain scans to find the best time to stop caffeine treatment in premature babies. Caffeine is given to help with breathing, and the goal is to see if brain activity can guide when to safely stop it.
BursaAges Up to 1 month - NCT07324980Recruiting
Ultrasound for breathing trouble in the ER
This study tests if a quick ultrasound can help doctors figure out why you are having trouble breathing when you come to the emergency room. It may lead to faster and more accurate care.
NovaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07325812Recruiting
Lung opening maneuvers during spine surgery
This study tests whether periodic lung opening maneuvers during back surgery can reduce lung collapse and improve breathing mechanics. Doctors will use ultrasound to monitor your lungs.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT07325864Recruiting
Studying lung cancer and its spread to find new treatments
This trial collects tissue samples from your lung tumor and any tumors that have spread to other parts of your body. They will study the genetic makeup of these samples to better understand lung cancer and improve future treatments.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT07326215Recruiting
A study of a device that removes carbon dioxide from the blood
This trial tests a device called PrismaLung+ that helps remove extra carbon dioxide from the blood of patients on breathing machines. It may help people whose lungs are struggling despite gentle ventilation settings.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07326293Recruiting
Oxygen monitor for older adults in cancer surgery
This study looks at a special monitor (oxygen reserve index) to help doctors catch drops in oxygen early in older patients having cancer surgery. It may add an extra layer of safety during anesthesia.
Ankara, ÇankayaAges 65–100 - NCT07326358Recruiting
AI help for doctors finding problems in nose and throat exams
This study uses artificial intelligence to help doctors better see and find issues during nose and throat camera exams. If you are getting this exam and agree to participate, your images may be checked by the AI system to see if it can improve detection.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07326995RecruitingPhase 2
Inhaled PA9159 for Adults with Moderate Asthma
This trial tests a new inhaled medicine called PA9159 for adults with moderate asthma. It compares the medicine to a placebo to see if it safely improves breathing and controls asthma symptoms.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–75 - NCT07328035Recruiting
Asthma remission in adults with severe asthma
This study looks at whether adults with severe asthma in Thailand can reach a state where their asthma symptoms go away (remission). You may join if you have severe asthma and can do the required breathing tests.
Pathum ThaniAges 18 years+ - NCT07328152Recruiting
European health data study for rare diseases
