Asthma clinical trials in Louisiana: 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 Louisiana, recruiting asthma studies are concentrated in New Orleans, Lafayette, Shreveport and Baton Rouge. 4 of the 7 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 7 of 7 recruiting Asthma trials in Louisiana

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
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial on Efficacy and Safety of Fluticasone Propionate/Albuterol Sulfate Combination in Participants 12 Years and Older With Asthma
PHASE3 Phoenix, Arizona +4 sites NCT06664619
This trial is looking for people aged 12 and older who have been diagnosed with asthma for at least six months and currently use a quick-relief inhaler. However, it cannot include anyone who has had serious asthma attacks, recent respiratory infections, or other serious lung problems. If you're a current smoker or have recently smoked, you wouldn't be able to participate either.
Recruiting
A Study of Efficacy and Safety of Depemokimab Compared With Placebo in Adults and Adolescents With at Risk Type 2 Asthma
PHASE3 Little Rock, Arkansas +4 sites NCT07456033
This trial is looking for adults and adolescents with type 2 asthma who have experienced recent exacerbations. Participants will receive depemokimab along with their regular asthma treatment to see how well it works.
Recruiting
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
Nutrition for Asthmatics
NA Baton Rouge, Louisiana NCT06151405
This trial is looking for adults between 18 and 65 years who have asthma that isn't fully controlled. Participants will try different diets to see how they affect asthma control and lung function.
Recruiting
The Allergen Reduction and Child Health Study (ARCHS)
NA New Orleans, Louisiana NCT04331353
This trial is looking for children aged 5 to 17 who have asthma and are exposed to cockroaches. Participants will use a simple insect bait at home for 12 months to reduce cockroach numbers and improve asthma symptoms.
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 Louisiana: common questions

How many Asthma clinical trials are recruiting in Louisiana?
TrialFinder currently lists 7 recruiting Asthma clinical trials with study sites in Louisiana. Results are updated regularly from ClinicalTrials.gov, the official U.S. registry of clinical studies.
Where are Asthma clinical trials located in Louisiana?
Study sites for the Asthma trials listed on this page include Baton Rouge, New Orleans. 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 Louisiana?
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 Louisiana 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 Louisiana?
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.
Are Clinical Trials Safe? What Patients Should Know
How clinical trial safety works — phases, IRB oversight, informed consent, and your right to withdraw — plus the real risks and questions to ask.
How to Know If You Qualify for a Clinical Trial
Every trial has eligibility criteria based on diagnosis, age, and medical history. Here's how to tell if you qualify — and what to do if you're not sure.
