SIMEOX device for mucus clearance at home in bronchiectasis
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a home-use device called SIMEOX, which helps clear mucus from your lungs. It is for adults with bronchiectasis (not cystic fibrosis) who have frequent lung infections.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You have bronchiectasis (not cystic fibrosis) confirmed by a CT scan
- You bring up mucus regularly
- You have had at least 2 lung infections in the past year that needed a change in your medicines, OR at least 1 infection that put you in the hospital
- You have not used certain other lung clearance devices at home (like The Vest) recently
- You do not have unstable heart problems, active cancer, or other serious lung conditions

This study tests a therapy that uses chest wall oscillations to help clear mucus from the lungs of children with bronchiectasis (a chronic lung condition not caused by cystic fibrosis). It aims to improve breathing and reduce symptoms.
This study tests an inhaled medicine (GDC-6988) to see if it is safe and helps clear mucus from the lungs in people with mucus-related lung diseases like chronic bronchitis, COPD, or bronchiectasis. You may qualify if your lung function is fairly stable and you produce daily mucus.
This trial tests whether inhaling a saltwater solution (hypertonic saline) twice a day for 12 weeks can help people with bronchiectasis who have a chronic cough and have had flare-ups in the past. It aims to see if this treatment reduces mucus and improves quality of life.
This study is testing a new device called Simeox 200 to help clear mucus from your lungs. If you have bronchiectasis and produce a lot of mucus daily, this device might make it easier to breathe and reduce lung infections.
This trial tests whether a new device called Simeox works better than standard chest physical therapy for people with bronchiectasis (widened airways that trap mucus). It compares how well each method clears mucus from the lungs.
This trial tests if a device called Simeox can reduce trapped air in the lungs of people with severe COPD. It may help you breathe easier if you have pulmonary hyperinflation.
