BRIDGE study using health records and genetics for bronchiectasis
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how bronchiectasis (ongoing lung damage with mucus and infections) may happen by using your medical records and genetic information. It may help researchers find better ways to understand different bronchiectasis types and guide future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are under the care of a respiratory specialist and have a primary diagnosis of bronchiectasis
- Your past chest CT scan showed bronchiectasis, and your symptoms fit (cough, mucus/sputum, and/or repeated lung infections)
- In the last 4 weeks, you have been clinically stable with no antibiotic or steroid treatment for a lung flare-up
- You are able to understand the study and sign consent
- You do not have active tuberculosis (a current TB infection)
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

This study looks at the genes and health data of people with bronchiectasis to better understand the disease. It may help find new ways to treat or manage your condition.
This study looks at what factors are linked to flare-ups and serious outcomes in people with non–cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. You may be followed because your lung scans and recent stability help researchers understand what predicts worsening.
This trial tests the LibAirty system, a device that helps clear mucus from your lungs, in people with bronchiectasis. Participants use the device at home to see how well it works in daily life.
This study looks at how bacteria live in the lungs of people with bronchiectasis and how they may adapt over time. It may help researchers understand why infections keep coming back and how to better manage chronic lung colonization.
This study looks at how different types of inflammation in your sputum (mucus you cough up) relate to your lung health over time. It aims to understand why some people with bronchiectasis do better than others, which may help improve future treatments.
This study looks at why bronchiectasis gets worse over time. It may help doctors understand the disease better and find better ways to monitor or treat it.
