Old vaccines, new hope: can MMR or BCG shots ease COPD?

NCT ID NCT06257212

Summary

This study tested whether giving standard vaccines (MMR or BCG) could 'train' the immune systems of people with COPD to become less inflamed. 60 participants received either one of the vaccines or a placebo saline shot. The main goal was to see if the vaccines caused beneficial, long-term changes in the body's natural immune response to help control COPD.
