Asthma clinical trials in Kentucky: 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 Kentucky, recruiting asthma studies are concentrated in Owensboro, Louisville and Lexington. 9 of the 10 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.

A Phase II Study to Investigate Lung Function With 2 Different Doses of Inhaled Glycopyrronium Taken With BFF Compared to BFF in Participants of 4 to Less Than 12 Years of Age With Asthma
PHASE2 Bakersfield, California +4 sites NCT07525375
This trial is looking for children aged 4 to less than 12 who have asthma. Participants will take a medication called glycopyrronium along with another asthma treatment to see how it helps lung function.
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
ENV-294 for Moderate-to-Severe Asthma: A 12-Week Study in Adults
PHASE2 Birmingham, Alabama +4 sites NCT07301255
This trial is looking for adults with moderate to severe asthma. Participants will take either the study drug ENV-294 or a placebo once a day for 12 weeks while continuing their asthma treatments.
Recruiting
A Study Evaluating Disease Characteristics and Outcomes in Participants With Asthma in Routine Clinical Practice
N/A Bessemer, Alabama +4 sites NCT07556159
This trial is looking for people with asthma to understand their condition better. Participants will share details about their asthma severity, treatments, and health-related quality of life.
Recruiting
A Study of KT-621 Administered Orally to Adult Participants With Moderate to Severe Eosinophilic Asthma
PHASE2 Lancaster, California +4 sites NCT07323654
This trial is looking for adults aged 18 to 75 who have moderate to severe eosinophilic asthma that is not well controlled. Participants will take a medication called KT-621 to see how well it works and monitor any side effects.
Recruiting
A Study to Compare Safety of 4 Weeks Exposure to Propellants Hydrofluoroalkane 1,1-difluoroethane (HFA-152a) and HFA-1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (134a)
PHASE3 Owensboro, Kentucky +4 sites NCT07645248
This trial is looking for adults with asthma who have been stable for a while and are currently using certain asthma medications. Participants will use a specific inhaler containing one of two propellants for 4 weeks to compare safety.
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 Kentucky: common questions

How many Asthma clinical trials are recruiting in Kentucky?
TrialFinder currently lists 10 recruiting Asthma clinical trials with study sites in Kentucky. Results are updated regularly from ClinicalTrials.gov, the official U.S. registry of clinical studies.
Where are Asthma clinical trials located in Kentucky?
Study sites for the Asthma trials listed on this page include Owensboro. 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 Kentucky?
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 Kentucky 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 Kentucky?
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.
