Clinical trials

New options in the treatment of lung disease

Taking part in a clinical trial may give access to new treatments, with regular follow-up and specialist supervision according to the study protocol.

Our aim is to make research participation available also to patients who do not achieve adequate disease control with current options, or who still have symptoms or periodic flare-ups.

Important: participation in a clinical trial does not guarantee a cure or a personal therapeutic benefit. Participation is voluntary. Before the study every participant receives detailed information about its purpose, process, expected benefits and possible risks, and decides on that basis.
