This trial tests a new medicine called CM326 for people with moderate to severe COPD. It aims to see if the drug can reduce flare-ups and improve lung function.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40–85 - NCT07416474RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two drug combos for first-line lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug (RC148) plus chemotherapy against another drug (Tislelizumab) plus chemotherapy for people with a type of lung cancer called squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has spread or can't be removed. It's for those who haven't had treatment for advanced disease yet.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT06816342RecruitingPhase 4
Emergency spacers vs. traditional spacers for asthma
This trial tests whether an emergency-use spacer works as well as a traditional spacer for delivering asthma medication through an inhaler. It may help people with mild to moderate asthma breathe better during an attack.
