COPD cycling study pulled before it began
NCT ID NCT06869720
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study was designed to test whether eccentric cycling (a type of exercise that focuses on lengthening muscles) could improve heart and lung fitness and quality of life in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The plan was to compare eccentric cycling to standard care in patients who had already done pulmonary rehab. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available.
