New study aims to unlock secrets of COPD in chinese patients
NCT ID NCT06724848
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This observational study will follow 850 Chinese adults with COPD or pre-COPD for one year. Researchers will collect medical history, lung function tests, blood samples, and CT scans to identify different disease types and markers. The goal is to better understand how COPD develops and progresses in this population, which could lead to more personalized treatments down the road.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could help doctors better understand COPD in Chinese patients and pave the way for more personalized treatments in the future.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly help participants. It only follows patients for one year, which may not capture long-term disease changes.

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
This is a multi-center, longitudinal, observational study which includes COPD group with external healthy controls. External healthy controls will be selected from the healthy volunteers enrolled in the asthma translational study (D2287R00186, sponsored by AstraZeneca), whose characteristics match as the entry criteria for Cohort A in the study. Other than participating the procedures of asthma translational study with additional specific activities for COPD, no other activities will be performed in this COPD translational study for Cohort A.

Inclusion Criteria: * Capable of giving signed ICF * Able to perform acceptable lung function testing for FEV1 according to American Thoracic Society and European Respiratory Society 2019 acceptability criteria. * Able and willing to comply with the requirements of the protocol including ability to read, write, be fluent in the translated language of all participants facing questionnaires used at center. * Participants will be allowed to enroll into other non-intervention studies while taking part in this study. Exclusion Criteria: * The participant has a history of alcohol or drug abuse within the past year, which, in the opinion of the responsible physician, contra-indicates their participation. * The participant has an altered mental status at the time of informed consent. * Clinically significant abnormal laboratory values available vital signs, ECG, or laboratory testing at the screening assessment that, which in the opinion of the investigator, could interfere with the objectives of the study or safety of the participant. -Current diagnosis of asthma. * Clinically important pulmonary disease. * COPD exacerbation, within 2 weeks prior to enrollment or during screening period. * History of partial or total lung resection (single lobe or segmentectomy is acceptable). Surgical or endoscopic (eg, valves) lung volume reduction within the 6 months prior to enrollment. Expected need for lung volume reduction surgery during the study. * Unstable disorders. * Malignancy, current or within the past 5 years, except for adequately treated non-invasive basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin and cervical carcinoma-in-situ treated with apparent success more than one year prior to enrollment. Suspected malignancy or undefined neoplasms. * Terminal disease and/or organ failure or participants otherwise considered not appropriate for the study participation. * Participants receipt marketed or investigational biologics biologics within 3 months or 5 half-lives prior to visit 1, whichever is longer. * Female participants who are pregnant.
