Comparing COPD, PRISm, and healthy adults
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study compares the health of people with COPD (chronic lung disease) and those with PRISm (a milder lung condition) to healthy adults. The goal is to understand how these conditions affect daily life and overall health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 40 years old or older.
- You have a diagnosis of COPD or PRISm, or you are a healthy adult without any chronic disease.
- You are not currently having a worsening of your lung condition (exacerbation).
- You do not have a severe heart, bone/joint, or brain condition.
- You are not being treated for another lung disease besides COPD or PRISm.

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how health knowledge, physical abilities, thinking skills, and daily habits affect quality of life in people with COPD. It aims to find ways to better support patients.
This study looks at lung function in people with early COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) to understand what happens over time. If you meet the lung test and health requirements, you may be able to help researchers learn how to better track and manage early COPD.
This study compares the lungs of people with airway disease to healthy volunteers to understand inflammation and lung function. You may be eligible if you have airway disease or are a healthy adult.
This study follows people with stable COPD to learn how the disease progresses and affects different patients in different ways. Researchers will track your lung function and symptoms over time to better understand COPD and improve treatment.
This study compares how people with COPD, those with a lung condition called PRISm (Preserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry), and healthy individuals feel and function. It aims to understand differences in symptoms and daily life.
This study follows people with early COPD patterns (or no lung disease) to understand how COPD starts and progresses over time. You may have breathing tests and possibly CT scans, and some participants may join an added lung procedure (bronchoscopy).
