Study how donor genetic material behaves after lung or heart transplant
This study looks at how transplanted genetic material (DNA) changes and settles in the body after lung or heart transplant. It may help doctors understand transplant healing and improve future care for transplant recipients and candidates.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at whether a specialized blood test can help doctors better assess lung cancer. It may be helpful if you are an adult who can safely participate and provide a sample for testing.
This study looks at how well donor hearts work and how that affects outcomes after heart transplantation. It may help transplant teams choose and use donor hearts more effectively.
This study looks at ways to improve outcomes for people who are waiting for or have recently received a lung transplant. It aims to find better management strategies for both donors and recipients.
This study is following people who have had a liver, kidney, heart, or lung transplant. It will look for markers in your blood that might help predict how you do in the short and long term after transplant.
This study looks at the genes (genomics) of people receiving heart transplants. It may help doctors understand how to improve care for future transplant patients.
This study uses advanced blood and tissue testing to predict how well a new lung will work after transplant. If you've had a lung transplant and are stable, you may help researchers improve care for future patients.
