About this study

Official title: Vitamin D as an Adjunctive Treatment in Patients With Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis: a Double-blind Randomised Controlled Trial

This study evaluates vitamin D as an adjunctive treatment in patients with non-Cystic Fibrosis bronchiectasis, which are combined with vitamin D deficiency. Half of participants will receive vitamin D supplementation, while the other half will receive placebo.

Read the detailed description

To define the therapeutic effect of Vitamin D in the treatment of non-Cystic Fibrosis bronchiectasis by means of a prospective randomized placebo-controlled double blind study with a follow-up of at least one year. To explore whether correction of Vitamin D deficiency by the oral supplementation of Vitamin D triggers the vitamin D receptors-mediated cathelicidin pathway and increases local or systemic concentrations of the natural antimicrobial polypeptide cathelicidin with enhanced eradication of bacteria.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Cholecalciferol in people with Bronchiectasis, run by Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital, Shanghai, China 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 4 inclusion and 8 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 24 Jul 2015. 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 JinFu Xu (+86-13321922898, 13321922898@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to first acute exacerbation (time frame: one year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02507843, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 24 Jul 2015.
