Study of ABBV-142 for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
This trial is testing a new antibody drug, ABBV-142, to see if it can reduce disease activity in adults with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). It may help if your IPF was diagnosed within the last 7 years and you meet certain health criteria.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 40 years+ - NCT07775820Recruiting
Retrying immunotherapy after lung inflammation
This trial looks at whether people with lung cancer who had lung inflammation from immunotherapy can safely try immunotherapy again. It aims to see if restarting treatment helps without causing severe side effects.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07777445Recruiting
Oxygen treatment during exercise for lung and pulmonary vascular disease
This study compares breathing normal air versus low-flow liquid oxygen during exercise to see if oxygen helps improve performance in people with conditions affecting the lungs or the blood vessels in the lungs. You would exercise while using a portable oxygen device and then without it to compare the effects.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT07777367Recruiting
Exercise with liquid oxygen in chronic lung disease
This study compares how well people with chronic lung diseases perform during exercise when breathing regular air versus when using low-flow liquid oxygen. It aims to see if using liquid oxygen during exercise can improve exercise ability and quality of life.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT07628049RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
RSV and hMPV combination vaccine study for adults
This study tests a new vaccine that may protect against two common viruses that cause breathing problems, RSV and hMPV. It is for healthy younger adults (18-49) and older adults (60-80) to see if the vaccine is safe and works well.
Lenexa, KansasAges 18–80 - NCT07776353Recruiting
Understanding weight loss in advanced cancer
This study looks at how weight loss and muscle loss affect people with advanced cancer. It aims to find different types of weight loss to better guide treatment and care.
Pleasanton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07775235Recruiting
Treatment outcomes for muscle inflammation with rapid lung disease
This study looks at how well treatments work for people with muscle inflammation (myositis) that causes a fast-progressing lung condition. It may help doctors find better ways to manage this serious combination.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT06494540Recruiting
TDC treatment for advanced non-squamous lung cancer
This study is looking at how well a new treatment called TDC (which includes durvalumab and chemotherapy) works for people with a certain type of advanced lung cancer that has spread and has specific genetic features. It aims to see if this treatment is effective and safe in the real world, and it might be an option if you are starting this therapy anyway.
Bad HomburgAges 18–120 - NCT07777822RecruitingPhase 3
First-line treatment for metastatic non-squamous lung cancer with RAS mutation
This trial tests whether adding a new drug (zoldonrasib) to standard chemotherapy and immunotherapy can help people with a specific type of lung cancer. It is for those with a RAS G12D mutation and no prior treatment for metastatic disease.
Plantation, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06133777Recruiting
