Breathing sample study to improve exhaled biomarker testing
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study works on better ways to collect and analyze substances from your breath. It may help researchers test how well these “breath markers” reflect lung or whole-body inflammation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 4 and 110 years old
- You have a respiratory problem, or a condition with whole-body inflammation, or you have no lung disease
- You can cooperate with collecting a breath sample
- You are willing to provide the required specimens (breath samples)

This study is testing a simple breath test (Inflammacheck device) to see if it can measure airway inflammation in people with various lung conditions, including lung cancer, pneumonia, asthma, and COPD, as well as healthy volunteers. It aims to find better ways to diagnose and monitor respiratory diseases using your breath.
This study looks at the germs in exhaled (breathed-out) air to compare people with COPD to people without COPD. It may help researchers better understand lung differences and what could drive COPD.
This study analyzes breath samples from adults with lung or airway problems. It may help researchers understand these conditions better by looking at what’s in your exhaled breath.
This study tests how analyzing your breath can help researchers detect or understand health conditions. If you’re an adult and can safely participate, you may be able to take part and have your exhaled breath measured.
This study uses a simple breath test to detect different lung diseases. By analyzing the chemicals in your breath, researchers hope to find a faster, non-invasive way to diagnose lung conditions. It may be an option if you have a known lung disease and have a recent CT scan.
This study uses a special machine to analyze exhaled breath to learn about different illnesses in children and teens. It may help researchers find breathing “signals” that reflect conditions like breathing problems, nervous system issues, or new/worsening type 1 diabetes.
