ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is testing a new inhaled medication called H057 to see how well it works and how safe it is for treating acute exacerbations of bronchiectasis. Bronchiectasis is a lung condition where the airways become damaged and inflamed, often leading to symptoms like a persistent cough and difficulty breathing. The study will involve multiple locations and will randomly assign participants to receive either the H057 treatment or a placebo (a treatment that looks the same but has no active medication) without them knowing which one they are getting.

To participate, individuals must be at least 18 years old and currently experiencing a worsening of bronchiectasis symptoms for more than 48 hours. They should be able to tolerate inhaled treatments and understand the study's goals. However, there are some criteria that would exclude someone from joining, such as having certain other health conditions or a history of specific infections. If eligible, participants will use a nebulizer to take the medication and will be asked to complete questionnaires about their symptoms and experiences during the trial. This study is not yet recruiting, but it's an important step in finding better treatments for people with bronchiectasis.
