Recruiting studies
- NCT03331302RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tested lung imaging scans in stable COPD patients
This study compares two ways of seeing how well your lungs work: a special MRI scan and another scan that uses a different gas. It may help researchers find which imaging test best reflects lung function in people with COPD.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04662658RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a special MRI gas scan of healthy lungs
This study tests a special MRI scan that uses a “hyperpolarized” gas to look at how well the lungs are working. It’s likely looking for safe imaging results and clear lung measurements in people without lung disease.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06945614RecruitingPhase 1
Xenon gas for brain inflammation safety study
This study tests an inhaled gas called xenon to see if it can safely reduce brain inflammation. The study is for healthy volunteers aged 55-75 to check safety and early signs of benefit.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 55–75 - NCT04696523RecruitingPhase 2
Xenon gas for brain injury after a ruptured brain aneurysm
This Phase 2 study tests whether xenon gas can reduce brain injury after an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (a bleeding caused by a brain aneurysm). It aims to help people who are very sick right after the bleeding by improving brain function outcomes.
Helsinki, HelsinkiAges 18 years+ - NCT03909477Recruiting
Study of MRI brain scans in cannabis smokers over time
This study follows people who currently or used to smoke cannabis to see how cannabis use may change certain MRI scan signals in the brain over time. You may help researchers understand the effects of cannabis smoking and how brain imaging changes can be measured safely.
London, OntarioAges 18–85 - NCT02740868RecruitingPhase 2
Breathing MRI using xenon gas to study lungs
This trial uses a special breathing MRI (you breathe a gas mixture) to measure how well your lungs work. It studies healthy kids and people with lung conditions like cystic fibrosis or asthma, and it may help researchers better understand lung function and flare-ups.
Toronto, OntarioAges 8 years+ - NCT02272049RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Hyperpolarized gas MRI scan for lung imaging in people 6+
This trial tests a special MRI scan that uses an inhaled, tracer gas to create clearer pictures of how your lungs work. It may help doctors see lung function more precisely in children and adults who can safely complete the scan.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 6 years+ - NCT07823010Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Xenon gas MRI scan study for children
This study is developing a new type of MRI scan that uses xenon gas to take pictures of the lungs. It may help doctors see how well your lungs are working without any radiation.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Any age - NCT07823036RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MRI scans of lungs after stem cell transplant
This study uses MRI scans to look at the lungs in people who have had a stem cell transplant (HSCT). It will help doctors understand and detect early lung problems, so they can act sooner.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 3 years+ - NCT04761393Recruiting
Testing a lung protein in COPD sputum samples
This study looks at a lung protein called MMP12 in sputum (mucus) to better understand COPD. It may help researchers learn which COPD changes are linked to disease severity and lung damage.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 40–85 - NCT07139899Recruiting
Mucus Plugs and Lung MRI in Severe Asthma
This study is looking at how mucus plugs in the airways affect lung function in people with severe asthma. If you are about to start a new injectable asthma treatment (dupilumab, tezepelumab, or benralizumab), you may be able to join and get a special type of lung MRI to see how your lungs are doing.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–65 - NCT06985225Recruiting
Study of mucus plugs and lung function in mucus-related lung disease
This study looks at how mucus plugs affect air flow in the lungs. It may help find new ways to treat people with lung conditions like cystic fibrosis, severe asthma, COPD, or bronchiectasis.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18–65 - NCT06925295RecruitingPhase 2
Xenon MRI to guide radiation for lung cancer
This trial tests whether a special MRI that uses xenon gas can help doctors better plan radiation therapy for lung cancer. You may join if you are scheduled for stereotactic body radiation therapy for your lung cancer.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–80 - NCT06909201Recruiting
Lung MRI scan to study radiation treatment effects
This study uses a special MRI scan with xenon gas to see how radiation therapy affects your lungs. It may help doctors better understand treatment response and side effects.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06853145RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Using a special MRI scan to study lung disease in IPF
This trial uses an advanced MRI technique with a special gas (hyperpolarized xenon-129) to look at lung function in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). It may help doctors better understand how the disease affects your lungs and could lead to improved care.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06856525RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
MRI scan to study lung health in e-cigarette users
This study tests a new type of MRI scan to see how e-cigarettes affect your lungs. It's for young adults who vape nicotine regularly. The results may help doctors understand vaping-related lung damage.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–35 - NCT04616313Recruiting
MRI and breathing tests in people who vape
This study uses a special lung scan (MRI) and breathing tests to understand how vaping affects lung structure and function. It may help researchers learn what early lung changes happen after starting vaping, even if you don’t feel sick.
London, OntarioAges 16 years+ - NCT06351345RecruitingPhase 2
Xenon imaging study for pulmonary hypertension patients on sotatercept
This trial uses a special imaging technique (xenon MRI) to see how well the lungs are functioning in people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) who are being treated with the drug sotatercept. It aims to understand if the drug improves lung function.

What Xenon is being studied for
Conditions with recruiting Xenon studies.
Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Xenon?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 26 recruiting studies that include Xenon, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Xenon trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Xenon an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Xenon or a specific trial is right for you.
