About this study

Official title: A Randomized,Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy,Indications,Adverse Reactions and Resistance of Combined Administration of Nebulized Tobramycin Compared With Systemic Administration Alone in Patients With Bronchiectasis

This is a study to evaluate the efficacy,indications,adverse reactions and resistance of combined administration of nebulized tobramycin compared with systemic administration alone in patients with Bronchiectasis in acute exacerbation of Bronchiectasis.

Read the detailed description

Bronchiectasis is a chronic disorder of the major bronchi and bronchioles characterized by permanent dilation, microbial infection, a persistent inflammatory response with the release of immune mediators and microbial toxins leading to destruction. The origin of bronchiectasis varies, but the presence of microbial infection and a persistent inflammatory response is typical of the disease. The chronic nature of the infection and the associated considerable morbidity provides the rationale for using aerosolized antibiotics for the treatment of bronchiectasis patients.

This is a study of safety and efficacy of combined administration of nebulized tobramycin compared with systemic administration alone in patients with Bronchiectasis in acute exacerbation of Bronchiectasis. Study subjects will be randomized to receive either study drug or placebo by inhalation via a nebulizer. Each subject will complete 14 days of daily dosing.

Clinical laboratory parameters,clinical adverse events and pulmonary function will be evaluated for all study subjects in order to determine the qualitative and quantitative safety and efficacy of nebulized tobramycin.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Tobramycin and Saline in people with Bronchiectasis, run by Shandong University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Dec 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Qi (xiaokangqlh@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To evaluate change in density of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in sputum (time frame: days 1,7,14). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Dec 2012.
