BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT07561125RecruitingPhase 2
IVIG for lung disease in very preterm infants
This trial tests whether giving intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) early after birth can help prevent or treat a serious lung condition called bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in babies born at 28 weeks or earlier. It may help reduce the need for breathing support and oxygen.
ShanghaiAges 1 day–2 months - NCT05722938RecruitingPhase 3
Testing Trimodulin for severe pneumonia on breathing support
This trial tests an investigational medicine called Trimodulin (BT588) for people with severe pneumonia who need a breathing machine. The goal is to see if it helps them recover faster.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07726147RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new allergy shot for Japanese cedar pollen
