Study of mucus plugs and lung function in mucus-related lung disease
Part of Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how mucus plugs affect air flow in the lungs. It may help find new ways to treat people with lung conditions like cystic fibrosis, severe asthma, COPD, or bronchiectasis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You have been diagnosed with a mucus-related lung disease (like cystic fibrosis, severe asthma, COPD, or bronchiectasis) for more than 1 year
- You can perform a breathing test (spirometry) correctly
- You do not have a lung infection or have not had one in the last 4 weeks
- Your body mass index (BMI) is 30 or less
- You are not pregnant (if female)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This Phase 1 study tests a lung scan that uses a special gas and MRI to measure how well your lungs work. It includes healthy volunteers and people with lung disease to see how well the scan works and how safe it is.
This study is looking at how mucus plugs in the airways affect lung function in people with severe asthma. If you are about to start a new injectable asthma treatment (dupilumab, tezepelumab, or benralizumab), you may be able to join and get a special type of lung MRI to see how your lungs are doing.
This study tests a new type of MRI scan that uses either special gas (xenon) or regular MRI to take detailed pictures of the lungs in people with cystic fibrosis. The goal is to see how well these scans can track lung health over time, without using X-ray radiation.
This study uses MRI scanning to better understand how the lungs differ in people with cystic fibrosis (CF) and in people with non-CF bronchiectasis. The results may help doctors understand disease changes over time and guide future care, especially for children and teens.
This trial uses a special breathing MRI (you breathe a gas mixture) to measure how well your lungs work. It studies healthy kids and people with lung conditions like cystic fibrosis or asthma, and it may help researchers better understand lung function and flare-ups.
This study tests an inhaled medicine (GDC-6988) to see if it is safe and helps clear mucus from the lungs in people with mucus-related lung diseases like chronic bronchitis, COPD, or bronchiectasis. You may qualify if your lung function is fairly stable and you produce daily mucus.
