Using genetics to predict chronic disease risk
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial uses genetic information to help predict your risk of developing chronic diseases. It aims to create a platform that can identify health risks earlier so you can take preventive steps.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You can attend a baseline medical check-up.
- You agree to have your information used for research, kept private and secure.
- You meet at least one specific criterion related to a chronic disease risk subgroup.
- You are not currently sick with an active infection, inflammation, or worsening chronic disease.

This study follows people to understand heart disease risk by combining a heart risk score with genetic risk (polygenic risk). It may help improve how doctors identify who is at higher risk and could guide prevention planning.
This trial is studying people with chronic lung conditions, like COPD or asthma, to find treatable traits. It also includes healthy volunteers for comparison, to better understand what makes these diseases different and how to personalize treatment.
This is an observational study that collects health and family history information to see how advanced data analysis can help people with genetic conditions. It may involve website forms, optional conversations, and sometimes an NIH visit, depending on your situation.
This study looks for new body markers (including possible genetic traits) to better predict who is likely to have future cardiovascular events. Your results could help doctors estimate risk and choose prevention strategies more accurately.
This study looks at how people’s health and disease risk show up in multiple types of information collected together (like blood-related measures and other data). It may help researchers understand what patterns are linked to health versus future disease.
This trial looks at how learning about your genetic risk for heart disease might help prevent it. You will get a personalized report and guidance.
