Studying fats in asthma patients
Part of Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how certain fats (sphingolipids) in the body may affect asthma. It aims to find new ways to understand and treat the condition by studying people with asthma who do not have other major health issues.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a doctor-confirmed diagnosis of asthma.
- You cannot have other serious lung diseases like COPD, bronchiectasis, or pneumonia.
- You cannot have obstructive sleep apnea or a history of cancer.
- You cannot have severe heart disease.
- You cannot be pregnant.

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how weight and blood-sugar/fat changes in the body may affect the airways in people with asthma. You may be asked to complete breathing tests and possibly an airway procedure (bronchoscopy) to help researchers compare groups.
This early-phase study looks at how asthma-related inflammation works and whether a diet-related approach could help. It may be most relevant if you have confirmed asthma and can follow the study’s diet requirements.
This Phase 2 study tests anti-inflammatory lipid mediators in people with asthma. You may be eligible if your asthma is not well controlled despite regular inhaler use and you meet the specific lung function and health criteria.
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 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 uses brain scans to compare inflammation in the brain between people with severe asthma and healthy volunteers. It aims to understand how asthma may affect the brain.
