Salt Water Inhalation for Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Lung Disease
This trial tests whether breathing salt water vapor through a home nebulizer machine helps people with a specific type of lung infection (nontuberculous mycobacteria). The goal is to see if this simple treatment can improve breathing and reduce symptoms.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07646587RecruitingPhase 2
Safety Study of WIN378 for Moderate-Severe COPD
This study tests a new drug called WIN378 in people with moderate-to-severe COPD (chronic lung disease). It will check if the drug is safe and how the body processes it, which may help improve breathing and reduce flare-ups.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 40–80 - NCT07654400RecruitingPhase 2
Study of BL-M14D1 plus Atezolizumab for advanced small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination (BL-M14D1 and Atezolizumab) for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the combination can shrink tumors or slow the growth of the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07653100RecruitingPhase 3
RSV vaccine study for adults with chronic conditions
This study tests an RSV vaccine in adults aged 18 and older, especially those with chronic health issues like heart or lung disease. It aims to see how safe and effective the vaccine is at preventing RSV infections.

Sotatercept for Japanese Children With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
This study tests a new medicine called sotatercept in Japanese children who have pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)—a condition where blood vessels in the lungs become narrow and stiff, making it harder for the heart to pump blood through them. The medicine may help improve how well their hearts and lungs work together.
