NCT ID NCT06985225
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at how mucus plugs in the lungs affect breathing in people with severe asthma. Researchers will use special MRI scans to see air flow in blocked areas. Only 5 adults with severe asthma will take part, and the goal is to better understand lung function, not to test a new treatment.
