Testing a breathing drug for exercise-induced larynx problems
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests if a drug called ipratropium bromide can help people with exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO), a condition where the voice box closes during exercise, making it hard to breathe. If you have EILO, you may be able to join to see if this treatment improves your breathing during exercise.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with EILO confirmed by a special test that looks at your voice box during exercise
- You can complete an exercise test on a bike or treadmill
- You have trouble breathing (dyspnea) during exercise
- You and your parent or guardian agree to follow all study procedures

This study looks at how many children with asthma also have a condition called EILO (Exercise-Induced Laryngeal Obstruction), which can cause breathing problems during exercise. The goal is to better understand the link between asthma and EILO in teenagers.
This trial tests a treatment approach for exercise-related breathing difficulty called EILO. It aims to help people whose breathing problems show up during peak exercise and who want ongoing follow-up.
This study looks at how the vocal cords move during exercise in young adults who have trouble breathing while active. It may help researchers understand why this happens and how to better diagnose and treat it.
This trial tests a device that briefly opens your airways to help release trapped air after exercise. It may reduce shortness of breath and improve your daily life with COPD.
This study tests whether a new approach can help relieve severe shortness of breath in people with COPD who are already on standard inhaler therapy. It may help you breathe easier and improve your daily life.
This study looks at how signals from your muscles during exercise affect your breathing and body temperature. It may help understand how active people can exercise safely.
