BRONCHIECTASIS

This phase 3 trial tests whether a daily tablet called florensocatib can reduce the number of lung flare-ups in people with bronchiectasis, a chronic lung condition. About 904 participants aged 12 to 85 will be randomly assigned to receive either the drug or a placebo for up to 7…

This study tests whether frequent sauna baths can reduce or eliminate bacteria that cause stubborn lung infections in people with conditions like COPD, asthma, or bronchiectasis. Researchers will track how long participants go without needing antibiotics and whether the bacteria …

This study tests whether taking a low dose of the antibiotic azithromycin every day for a year can reduce the number of serious lung infection flare-ups in adults with non-CF bronchiectasis. About 500 participants will receive either azithromycin or a placebo pill, added to their…

This study evaluates a portable device that measures lung function using oscillometry—a technique that sends gentle sound waves into the lungs—to diagnose chronic respiratory diseases like COPD, asthma, and bronchiectasis. Researchers will enroll about 4,000 adults across 50 cent…

This study will test a handheld ultrasonic spirometer against a conventional hospital spirometer in 100 adults with chronic respiratory diseases like COPD or asthma. Each participant will use both devices to see if the portable one gives accurate and reliable results. If successf…

This study looks at whether adding a continuous saltwater mist to warm, humidified air can make thick lung mucus easier to clear. 35 adults hospitalized with lung conditions like COPD or cystic fibrosis will receive both treatments on separate days. Researchers will measure mucus…

This study tests whether a 12-week telerehabilitation program—supervised resistance and endurance training done at home—can improve exercise capacity and quality of life in 80 adults with bronchiectasis. Participants are randomly assigned to either the training program or usual c…

This study tests whether a herbal medicine called Lifei Qingchang Granules can improve breathing and quality of life in people with stable bronchiectasis, a chronic lung condition. About 150 adults aged 18-75 who have had at least one flare-up in the past year will take either th…

This pilot study will test the Simeox 200, a device designed to help clear mucus from the lungs, in 35 adults with bronchiectasis who produce a lot of phlegm. Participants will use the device twice daily for two weeks, and researchers will measure how much mucus is cleared, along…

This study follows people with chronic lung diseases like bronchiectasis, cystic fibrosis, and COPD to understand how bacteria become resistant to antibiotics. Researchers will collect samples and health data over time to map resistance patterns and genetic causes. The goal is to…

This study will test 60 adults with bronchiectasis (a chronic lung condition) to see if they have an undiagnosed genetic disorder called primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). Researchers will measure nitric oxide in the nose and examine tiny hair-like cells from a nasal swab under a …

This study looks at 300 adults with bronchiectasis, a chronic lung condition, to understand why many also experience anxiety and depression. Researchers will collect blood, sputum, and stool samples to analyze metabolic pathways and identify biomarkers. The goal is to find clues …
