Better nutrition for lung flare-ups in bronchiectasis
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether improving nutrition can help people recover better from a bronchiectasis flare-up. If you've been told you are undernourished, this study may help you get tailored nutrition support to feel better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You have bronchiectasis, confirmed by a doctor or a chest CT scan.
- You are currently having a flare-up (worse symptoms like more mucus, harder breathing, or chest pain).
- You are undernourished or at risk of being undernourished.
- You do not have a feeding tube and have not made major diet changes or taken supplements in the last 3 months.

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 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 tests whether a common antibiotic called azithromycin can help prevent flare-ups (sudden worsening) of bronchiectasis—a lung condition where airways become permanently enlarged and damaged. Patients will take azithromycin or a placebo for 12 months to see if it reduces how often they get sick.
This study looks at how nutrition affects the course of bronchiectasis, a lung condition that causes coughing and frequent infections. It may help find ways to slow the disease down.
This trial tests if a new drug, GSK3862995B, is safe and effective for adults with bronchiectasis. It might help reduce lung infections and improve symptoms.
This study helps doctors understand how severe your bronchiectasis is and predict when you might have flare-ups. You'll have routine tests over 12 months to help researchers learn more about this condition and improve future care.
