What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at how the immune system works in people with lung diseases like asthma, COPD, pneumonia, and tuberculosis. Researchers will take a single blood sample from 100 adults to study immune cell changes during inflammation and infection. Participants won't receive direct treatment, but the findings may help improve future diagnosis and care for lung diseases.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population includes only adult patients (≥18 years) with lung diseases who are capable of providing informed consent and are medically fit for a single venous blood draw. Minors, healthy volunteers, and adults lacking the capacity to consent are not included, as consent by legal representatives is not provided for, and the study involves no interventions beyond blood sampling. Women of childbearing potential may participate regardless of contraceptive use, as study participation poses no additional risk. Patients with insufficient German language proficiency may also be included; in such cases, study information is provided orally in a language the participant fully understands by a qualified translator, with the translation process documented, and written consent is given using the German-language consent form once full understanding has been ensured, allowing all participants to make an informed and voluntary decision.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Diagnosis of an acute or chronic inflammatory lung disease, infectious or non-infectious, including asthma, COPD, pneumonia, tuberculosis, or viral pulmonary infection (e.g., COVID-19, influenza). * Age ≥ 18 years at the time of informed consent. * Ability to provide informed consent and consent to the collection and processing of clinical and laboratory data, as well as to the analysis of blood samples as part of study participation. * Sufficient physical condition to undergo a single venous blood draw (approximately 50 mL), as assessed by the treating physician. Exclusion Criteria: * Active malignant disease or ongoing cancer therapy (e.g., chemotherapy or immunotherapy), due to potential immunological confounding. * Immunosuppressive therapy or known severe immunodeficiency that could interfere with the interpretation of cellular immune responses. * Pregnancy or breastfeeding, for general research-ethical reasons and to protect vulnerable populations. * Acute unstable clinical condition that, in the opinion of the treating physician, makes study participation unreasonable. * Known intolerance to blood sampling or relevant hematological disorders that could compromise the safety or feasibility of venipuncture. * Lack of capacity to provide informed consent or insufficient understanding of the study content despite supportive explanation.
