Clinical Trial Summary

Bronchiectasis is a chronic airway disease which confers significant healthcare burden, with limited therapeutic approaches. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, congenital insufficiency of the lung, spleen and kidney, when coupled with external injury or mood impairment, may collectively contribute to bronchiectasis pathogenesis due to heat trapping in the phlems, congestion of wind evils and stagnation of blood. Here, the investigators will explore the Lung Dispersing, Turbid Descending and Gut Clearing Decoction (LTGD) which targets at expelling the wind evil in patients with bronchiectasis. The investigators sought to conduct a multicenter, randomized cross-over trial which investigates the efficacy and safety of LTGD on clinically stable bronchiectasis.

Clinical Trial Description

Bronchiectasis is a chronic airway disease which confers significant healthcare burden, with limited therapeutic approaches. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, congenital insufficiency of the lung, spleen and kidney, when coupled with external injury or mood impairment, may collectively contribute to bronchiectasis pathogenesis due to heat trapping in the phlems, congestion of wind evils and stagnation of blood. Symptomatic treatment may be effective and safe for ameliorating respiratory symptoms and hindering disease progression of bronchiectasis. Here, the investigators have explored the Lung Dispersing, Turbid Descending and Gut Clearing Decoction (LTGD) which targets at expelling the wind evil in patients with bronchiectasis.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
