This study tests whether vitamin C, an antioxidant, can help slow the progression of COPD and improve prognosis. If you qualify, you may take vitamin C and have your lung health monitored over time.
This study tests whether taking a probiotic can improve symptoms, lung function, and inflammation in people with COPD. It is for adults with stable COPD who have not had a flare-up or treatment change in the last two months.
This trial tests whether increasing omega-3 (from diet and/or supplements) helps people with COPD. It enrolls people with low omega-3 intake and asks them to follow a specific dietary plan during the study.
This study tests a new drug called WIN378 in people with moderate-to-severe COPD (chronic lung disease). It will check if the drug is safe and how the body processes it, which may help improve breathing and reduce flare-ups.
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 taking a daily fiber supplement can reduce inflammation in people with COPD (a lung disease that makes breathing harder) and improve their overall health. If you have stable COPD and get a certain amount of fiber from your diet, you may be able to join.
