NCT ID NCT04664192
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study is building a bio-bank of blood samples from people who have had a lung transplant. Researchers will use these samples to study advanced lung diseases and improve transplant care. The goal is to better understand how infections and other factors affect patient outcomes. Participants will donate blood samples and have their medical data collected over time.
