Asthma clinical trials in Hawaii: what to expect

Most recruiting asthma trials are for moderate-to-severe asthma that stays uncontrolled on an inhaled steroid. They test biologic injections aimed at the type of inflammation driving your asthma, new inhaler combinations, and longer-acting versions of existing drugs. Others study asthma in children, exercise and self-management programs, and ways to reduce flare-ups that lead to urgent care visits.

In Hawaii, recruiting asthma studies are concentrated in Honolulu and Waianae.

Who asthma trials usually look for

Trials ask for a confirmed diagnosis, a daily maintenance inhaler at a stated dose, and usually one or two flare-ups in the past year that needed oral steroids. Breathing tests at screening must fall in a range, and biologic trials pick participants by a blood eosinophil count or allergy markers measured at the site. Most adult trials exclude current smokers and people with COPD or another lung disease. Separate studies enroll children aged 6 to 11 and teenagers.

What taking part involves

Screening includes spirometry and blood work, then a run-in of a few weeks while you record symptoms and inhaler use in a diary or app. Biologic trials give an injection every two to eight weeks for six to twelve months, with breathing tests at each visit; many are placebo controlled, with your regular inhalers continued throughout and rescue inhaler always allowed. Flare-ups during the study are treated as usual. Study treatment and tests are free and visits are usually paid.

Questions worth asking the study team

Whether your current inhalers stay the same or are switched to a study inhaler; how often breathing tests are needed; the chance of placebo and whether an extension follows; and what to do during a flare-up while enrolled.

Community Connections Through Native Hawaiian Cultural Values to Strengthen Youth Resilience, Health, and Well-Being
NA Waianae, Hawaii NCT07536256
This trial is looking for young people aged 12 to 25 who live in Wai'anae and have mental health or chronic health concerns. Participants will join a community program that connects them to their culture and land while completing surveys about their well-being.
Recruiting
Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Safety Profile of Understudied Drugs Administered to Children Per Standard of Care (POPS)
N/A Phoenix, Arizona +4 sites NCT04278404
This trial is looking for children and young adults who are 21 years old or younger and are currently taking certain medications, or who have had a recent COVID-19 infection. They cannot be pregnant or have had certain recent medical procedures like dialysis, organ transplants, or other serious treatments. If you think your child might fit this description, it could be worth considering.

Asthma clinical trials in Hawaii: common questions

How many Asthma clinical trials are recruiting in Hawaii?
TrialFinder currently lists 2 recruiting Asthma clinical trials with study sites in Hawaii. Results are updated regularly from ClinicalTrials.gov, the official U.S. registry of clinical studies.
Where are Asthma clinical trials located in Hawaii?
Study sites for the Asthma trials listed on this page include Waianae. Each trial page lists every participating site with contact details, so you can find the location closest to you.
Do I need insurance to join a Asthma clinical trial in Hawaii?
No. Study-related care is covered by the trial sponsor at no cost to participants, including the study treatment, required lab tests and study visits. Many Asthma trials in Hawaii also compensate participants for time and travel. Health insurance is not required to search or enroll.
How do I qualify for a Asthma clinical trial in Hawaii?
Each study sets its own criteria based on age, Asthma diagnosis details, prior treatments, current medications and general health. The fastest way to find out is to contact a research site directly — most will pre-screen you by phone in 10 to 15 minutes at no charge. You can also create a free TrialFinder profile to be matched automatically.
Do I need to stop my inhaler to join an asthma trial?
No. Trials add the study treatment to your maintenance inhaler, or replace it with a study-supplied version, and a rescue inhaler is always permitted. Any change is made by the study doctor.
What is an eosinophil count and why do trials ask about it?
It is a type of white blood cell measured in a routine blood test. Many biologic asthma drugs target the inflammation it signals, so trials set a minimum or maximum count. The site measures it at screening.
Are there asthma trials for children?
Yes. Biologics and inhalers approved for adults are studied in children aged 6 to 11 and in teenagers, with a parent consenting and attending visits. The listing states the age range.
