Breathing ozone vs. clean air at rest
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests how resting healthy adults respond to breathing low levels of ozone (a common air pollutant) compared to clean air. Researchers will measure lung function and signs of inflammation in your blood or breath.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 35 years old, in good general health.
- You must have normal lung function (tested by breathing tests).
- You cannot have a history of heart disease, asthma, diabetes, or other chronic illnesses.
- You must not be a current smoker or have smoked in the last 2 years (including vaping and hookah).
- You cannot be pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or breastfeeding.

This early-phase study tests how an immune-targeting treatment affects inflammation in the lungs after ozone exposure. It may help researchers understand—and eventually reduce—lung inflammation triggered by air pollution.
This trial studies how immune cells in the lungs respond after ozone exposure, to better understand lung injury. It may help researchers learn what drives inflammation and what could protect the lungs in the future.
This study tests how short periods of low oxygen (like at high altitude) affect your body's breathing control. It is for healthy people and may help researchers better understand breathing during sleep.
This study looks at how short drops in blood oxygen levels affect lung function, symptoms, and overall health in people with moderate COPD. It involves simple tests like walking and cycling to help understand your condition better.
This study looks at a new, easy breathing test called oscillometry to see if it can help doctors understand how children's lungs react to exercise. It may help find breathing problems that standard tests miss.
This trial tests whether breathing in nitric oxide gas can improve how well your lungs exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide. It may help people with mild or moderate COPD, and also includes healthy volunteers for comparison.
