Breathing test for lung problems after bone marrow transplant
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a simple breathing test called Forced Oscillatory Technique (FOT) to detect early signs of a lung condition called bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome after a bone marrow transplant. Participating involves breathing normally into a mouthpiece during your regular lung function test.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You or your child must be 6 months old or older.
- You must have received a bone marrow transplant from a donor (allogeneic transplant).
- You are scheduled for a lung function test at the Hadassah Ein Kerem Institute of Pulmonary Medicine.
- You or your legal guardian must be able to give permission to join the study.
- You must be able to do the extra breathing test (FOT) which involves breathing normally into a mouthpiece.

This study follows lung health after a stem cell transplant from a donor, to understand and manage chronic graft-versus-host disease (a condition where donor cells attack the body). It may help people who are about to have their first donor transplant.
This study checks new ways to measure breathing in children who had a stem cell transplant to better detect a lung condition called bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome. If you join, you’ll do breathing and imaging tests, and researchers will look for patterns that may help with diagnosis.
This study looks for lab “clues” that can help predict how well someone’s lungs will do after a lung transplant. It may help doctors spot transplant-related problems earlier so care can be planned sooner.
This study tests whether the drug LAM-001 can help people who have developed a condition called bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) after a double lung transplant. BOS causes a slow decline in lung function, and this trial aims to see if LAM-001 can slow or stop that decline.
This study collects tiny airway samples during a planned bronchoscopy to better understand bronchiolitis obliterans (a long-term lung complication after transplant). Your samples may help researchers learn how the disease starts and changes over time.
This study tests two types of breathing muscle training exercises in people who have had a lung transplant. The goal is to see which type helps you breathe better and improves your daily living.
