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 is developing a simple breathing test to check how tobacco, cannabis, cocaine, opioids, or alcohol may affect your lungs. It could help you understand your lung health and guide future care.
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 uses a special device called an electronic nose to analyze your breath and look for signs of several diseases. It is a simple, non-invasive test that may help find health issues earlier, possibly leading to better treatment outcomes.
This study looks at patients admitted to the hospital with acute breathing issues or those with ongoing lung conditions. It aims to better understand these conditions and may help improve future care.
