NCT ID NCT01264055
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 275 adults with a lung condition called bronchiectasis, where airways are stretched and trap mucus, leading to infections. The goal was to learn more about the physical traits, lung scans, and germs in the lungs of people with the unexplained form of the disease. Participants gave blood, did breathing tests, and provided sputum samples. No new treatments were tested; this was purely to gather information for future research.
