简要总结
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of 24 weeks treatment with theophylline plus low-dose formoterol-budesonide in subjects with bronchiectasis.
详细描述
Non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis is an orphan disease caused by the pathogenic vicious circle including infection, inflammation and airway repair. Today's principle of treatment is to break the cycle of inflammation and infection. Nowadays, most clinical trials are anti-infective treatment by antibiotics trying to break this cycle by reducing the bacterial load, which may cause bacterial resistance. There were still some anti-inflammation trials by using inhaled corticosteroids(ICS). Tsang and Martínez-García showed that inhaled corticosteroids reduced IL-1,IL-8 levels and sputum inflammation cells, and improved sputum volume as well as quality of life, though the corticosteroid must be high dose or medium dose combined with long-acting ß2 adrenergic agonists. As described in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD), theophylline can improve the activity of histone deacetylase (HDAC) and then enhanced the anti-inflammatory effect of steroids. We hypothesis that theophylline may have the same effect in subjects with bronchiectasis. Theophylline plus inhaled low-dose formoterol-budesonide may improve quality of life and reduce airway inflammation.
