Lung tissue repair study for COPD patients through exercise
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a special exercise program can help repair lung tissue in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). It aims to find new ways to improve lung health and quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have COPD with a lung function test result (FEV1) between 30% and 85% of normal after using a bronchodilator
- You are on the best medical treatment for COPD as recommended by your doctor
- You haven't smoked for at least one year and are not currently smoking
- You haven't had a COPD flare-up (exacerbation) in the last 4 weeks
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 18 and 35
- You don't have other serious health problems that would make exercise difficult

This study follows people who currently smoke and people who may have newly found COPD (chronic obstructive lung disease) based on breathing test results. It aims to better understand lung disease in real life and what it means for health over time.
This study looks at how exercise habits from an earlier COPD exercise trial affect patients over the long term. It helps understand if the benefits last and how to keep patients active.
This study tests whether special stem cells can help repair lung damage in people with COPD. It may help us understand how to improve lung function for those who smoke or have smoked.
This study tests whether a personalised exercise programme helps people with COPD improve their fitness. It focuses on using a special exercise test to create an individualised plan.
This study looks at how inflammation and oxidative stress affect COPD. It tests whether a pulmonary rehabilitation program helps reduce these factors in people with stable COPD who are former smokers.
This study tests whether a community exercise program can improve health in people with heart or lung problems. It may help if you are not already doing regular, structured exercise.
