MRI for non-cancer lung diseases
This study uses MRI scans to look at the lungs of people with early-stage IPF, a lung scarring disease. It aims to see how well MRI can show lung changes without using radiation.
Pavia, LombardyAges Any age - NCT07493629Recruiting
Study on immune status and disease control in inflammatory airway diseases
This study looks at how the immune system works and how well diseases like asthma, COPD, and others are controlled. You may join if you have one of these conditions or if you are a healthy volunteer or smoker without lung disease.
Ningbo, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07495774Recruiting
Pediatric pulmonary hypertension registry study
This study collects information from children with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs) to better understand the condition and improve care. If your child has been diagnosed with PH, joining this registry will help doctors track their health over time.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Up to 18 years - NCT07498816Recruiting
Virtual reality and breathing during exercise in healthy adults
This study tests whether using an immersive virtual reality headset changes how hard you breathe during exercise on a stationary bike. It is for healthy adults aged 18–40 to explore if VR can make exercise feel easier.
Santiago, Santiago MetropolitanAges 18–40 - NCT07498933Recruiting
FAP-targeted imaging for lung cancer

Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07499674RecruitingPhase 3
A lung cancer surgery study to test a special imaging dye
This trial tests a dye called abenacianine (VGT-309) that may help surgeons see cancer more clearly during lung surgery. It looks at whether the dye is safe and effective for identifying cancer in people having surgery to remove a lung lesion or mass.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07500246Recruiting
Better diagnosis and treatment for childhood asthma
This study aims to improve how we diagnose and treat asthma in children. It tests whether a personalized approach can help children whose asthma is not well controlled with current inhaler treatments.
LuxembourgAges 5–16 - NCT07500818Recruiting
Robot vs. standard scope for lung biopsy in ILD
This study compares a robotic-assisted bronchoscope to a conventional one for performing a lung biopsy (cryobiopsy) in people with interstitial lung disease. The goal is to see which method is better at getting enough tissue for a diagnosis.
Lucerne, Canton of LucerneAges Any age - NCT07503509Recruiting
Study of high PEEP in noninvasive ventilation
This study tests whether using higher pressure settings (PEEP) on a noninvasive breathing mask can help people with low oxygen levels. The doctors will measure the pressure inside your esophagus to guide the treatment.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–100 - NCT07503808RecruitingPhase 1
IDE034 for advanced solid tumors with B7-H3 or PTK7
This study tests a new drug called IDE034 for people with advanced solid tumors that have certain markers (B7-H3 and PTK7). The drug may help by targeting these markers on cancer cells, and the study checks if it is safe and effective.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07504341Recruiting
Managing COVID-19 with vital signs
This trial looks at how patients' basic health signs like blood pressure and breathing rate affect their COVID-19 treatment. Doctors will review hospital records from a specific time period to learn more.
Chiayi CityAges Any age - NCT07504367Recruiting
AI assistance in tumor treatment meetings
This study tests whether a large language model can help doctors make better decisions in tumor multidisciplinary team meetings. It evaluates junior doctors with specific experience levels.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 25–33 - NCT07504731Recruiting
Effect of body position and breathing support on lung function
This study tests how changing a patient's body tilt and adjusting a ventilator's settings can help open up collapsed parts of the lungs. It may help patients with severe lung failure.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07505173RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted radiation plus osimertinib for brain metastases from EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests adding a brain-sparing radiation technique to the targeted therapy drug osimertinib for people with EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma that has spread to the brain and is causing symptoms. The goal is to see if this combination can better control the brain tumors while protecting the hippocampus, a key memory area.
TianjinAges 18–75 - NCT07505602Recruiting
Air purifiers for better breathing in COPD
This study tests whether using an air purifier at home can improve breathing and overall respiratory health in people with COPD. If you live in Shanghai and have COPD, this trial may help show if cleaner air makes a difference.
