This early-phase study is testing whether a combination of two existing cancer drugs can help control a rare condition where HPV causes recurring wart-like growths in the airways and lungs. The trial will enroll about 20 adults to see if the drugs are safe and can shrink the grow…

This study is testing a new way to deliver radiation therapy for advanced lung cancer. The goal is to use a special SPECT scan to map which parts of the lung are healthiest and working best, and then avoid giving high radiation doses to those areas. Researchers want to see if thi…

This study is testing whether adding a special lung rehabilitation program helps patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) who are on high-flow oxygen therapy. Researchers will compare 70 patients who receive the rehab exercises with those who get standard medical care alone. The…

This study aims to find which of three breathing therapies works best to help patients' lungs recover after heart surgery. Researchers will compare three different devices that help expand the lungs to prevent complications like lung collapse. The goal is to see which method impr…

This study is testing whether an 8-week Pilates exercise program can improve breathing and overall health in overweight and obese women. Participants will do core and abdominal exercises three times a week. Researchers will measure lung function, core strength, and quality of lif…

This study aims to understand what patients think about pulmonary rehabilitation programs across Türkiye and how different team setups affect their satisfaction. Researchers will survey 384 people who have completed pulmonary rehab and the coordinators who run these programs. The…

This study aims to identify specific proteins in lung fluid that could help doctors understand what causes different types of pneumonia. Researchers will analyze fluid samples from 750 patients undergoing a standard lung washing procedure for diagnosis. The goal is to find biolog…

This study aims to build a large database of detailed medical images and health information from 50,000 adults. Researchers will collect data from advanced CT and MRI scans, along with lab results and health records, to look for hidden patterns in the images. The goal is to disco…

This study aims to understand the long-term effects of curative therapies, like stem cell transplants, for sickle cell disease. Researchers will follow 750 people to see if these cures improve or worsen heart, lung, and kidney health over time compared to standard treatments. The…

This study aims to understand how pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) progresses over time by tracking 270 adults, including patients and healthy volunteers. Researchers will collect blood samples and perform heart and lung scans to identify new biological markers that could im…
