Genetic study of asthma severity and types
Part of Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how genes are linked to different types and severities of asthma. It aims to understand why asthma affects people differently, which could lead to better treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a confirmed asthma diagnosis (based on breathing tests showing reversible blockage).
- You cannot be currently having an asthma flare-up or attack (if you are, you can join after 6 weeks of recovery).
- You cannot have other lung diseases like bronchiectasis, tuberculosis-damaged lung, or lung cancer.
- You cannot currently have pneumonia or acute bronchitis.
- You must be able to sign a consent form to participate.

This study looks at the tiny germs in your airways (airway microbiota) to better understand different asthma “types” and what might drive symptoms. It may help researchers find more personalized approaches to asthma care by learning how lung bacteria relate to your asthma features.
This study looks at how well guideline-based asthma treatment works for adults with more severe asthma (GINA steps 4 and 5). It may help improve real-world care for people whose asthma needs stronger medications to stay controlled.
This trial looks at how certain proteins (Transgelin-2, Metallothionein-2, and Ezrin) are associated with asthma. It may help researchers better understand asthma biology and potentially guide future treatments.
This study aims to identify specific treatable traits in people with severe asthma and build a personalized treatment plan. It will help doctors understand which treatments might work best for you based on a detailed evaluation.
This trial looks at people with severe asthma that is hard to control. It aims to find and treat specific health problems that make asthma worse, by doing a detailed check-up and using treatments that are right for you.
This study follows adults with asthma in real life to better understand asthma care and outcomes. You may be invited if you already joined another asthma-related or health-related observational study and don’t have certain major lung or health conditions.
