Asthma clinical trials in Indiana: 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 Indiana, recruiting asthma studies are concentrated in Indianapolis and Noblesville. 2 of the 6 are run by a drug or device company, which usually means a larger study with travel reimbursement; the rest are academic or hospital-led.

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.

Showing 6 of 6 recruiting Asthma trials in Indiana

Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of PT027 Compared With PT007 Administered As Needed in Participants 12 to < 18 Years of Age With Asthma
PHASE3 Anchorage, Alaska +4 sites NCT06307665
This trial is looking for adolescents aged 12 to 17 with asthma. Participants will compare two treatments for asthma that are used when needed to see which is more effective and safe.
Recruiting
Dose Range Finding Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of Tozorakimab in Adults With Uncontrolled Asthma on Medium-to-High Dose Inhaled Corticosteroids
PHASE2 Bakersfield, California +4 sites NCT06932263
This trial is looking for adults with uncontrolled asthma who are already using medium to high doses of inhaled steroids. Participants will receive injections of a medication called tozorakimab to see how well it works and whether it is safe.
Recruiting
5HTP Regulation Of Asthma In Children
PHASE2 Indianapolis, Indiana NCT04160910
This trial is looking for children aged 8-18 with mild or moderate asthma to see if a supplement called 5HTP can help with breathing and anxiety. Participants will take either 5HTP or a placebo, and there will be five visits over about 12 weeks.
Recruiting
Acoustic Waveform Respiratory Evaluation
NA Indianapolis, Indiana +1 sites NCT06512064
This trial is looking for people aged 8 to 70 to participate in a study using smartphone speakers and microphones to check airway health. Participants will perform some breathing tests to help diagnose and monitor respiratory diseases like asthma and COPD.
Recruiting
Vitamin C to Decrease Effects of Smoking in Pregnancy on Infant Lung Function (VCSIP) Longer Term Follow Up
N/A Indianapolis, Indiana +1 sites NCT06106646
This trial is looking for pregnant women who smoke and their children. Participants will either receive vitamin C or a placebo during pregnancy, and their children's lung function will be followed up until they are 10 years old.
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 Indiana: common questions

How many Asthma clinical trials are recruiting in Indiana?
TrialFinder currently lists 6 recruiting Asthma clinical trials with study sites in Indiana. Results are updated regularly from ClinicalTrials.gov, the official U.S. registry of clinical studies.
Where are Asthma clinical trials located in Indiana?
Study sites for the Asthma trials listed on this page include Indianapolis. 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 Indiana?
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 Indiana 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 Indiana?
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.
