Screening for high-risk chronic lung disease
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study aims to identify people at high risk for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a lung condition that makes breathing hard. If you have a long-term cough, mucus, or breathing trouble, this screening may help catch it early.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a long-term cough or produce mucus regularly.
- You have trouble breathing or have had repeated lung infections.
- You have been exposed to things that can harm your lungs, like smoke or pollution.
- You are willing to join the study and sign a consent form.
- You do not have confusion, dementia, or a mental condition that prevents you from understanding your health.

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 offers free lung cancer screening (a CT scan) to people aged 50 and older who are at higher risk due to smoking, wood smoke exposure, or COPD. It aims to catch cancer early, when it's easier to treat.
This study looks at chronic airway diseases like asthma and COPD. Researchers want to learn more about how these conditions affect people and may explore treatments. You might join if you have asthma or COPD and no other major health issues.
This study looks at different forms of COPD to find better ways to treat them. It may help you understand your own condition and receive more personalized care.
This study looks at how lung cancer screening can also help find and manage COPD, a lung condition that often goes undetected. If you are a current or former smoker and meet certain age and smoking history criteria, you may join to help improve screening and care for both lung cancer and COPD.
This trial is studying people with chronic lung conditions, like COPD or asthma, to find treatable traits. It also includes healthy volunteers for comparison, to better understand what makes these diseases different and how to personalize treatment.
