Inflammation markers and CT scans in stable bronchiectasis
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at whether certain blood tests and CT scans can help predict when someone with bronchiectasis might have a flare-up (worsening of symptoms). It may help doctors better understand and manage the condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have bronchiectasis (a condition where the airways in your lungs are damaged and widened) that is not caused by cystic fibrosis.
- Your diagnosis of bronchiectasis was confirmed by a special CT scan called HRCT.
- You do not have active tuberculosis, advanced liver or kidney disease, or an autoimmune condition or cancer that requires immune-suppressing medicine.
- You agree to take part in the study.

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.
This study helps doctors identify different types of bronchiectasis (a lung disease where airways are permanently widened and damaged) to better understand how the disease develops and progresses. By following patients over time and collecting medical information, researchers hope to create a system that predicts which patients will worsen and need different treatments.
This study looks at people who have bronchiectasis (long-term lung damage that causes ongoing infections) and focuses on how heart-related conditions may affect outcomes during the study. It may help doctors better understand what to monitor and how to manage risk in people with both lung and heart issues.
This study looks at whether CT scan features can help doctors better classify bronchiectasis and predict how the disease may progress. It aims to improve understanding of the condition to guide treatment decisions.
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 bacteria in the lungs, infection patterns, and CT scan findings in people with COPD, asthma, or bronchiectasis. It aims to understand these conditions better and may help guide future treatments.
