Hi eli,

I was wondering why kj has never had a brochoscopy. I didn't know it was a trial.

If she goes on the trial (if pulmozyme doesn't work) I will let you know how it goes.

I think this trial is in phase 2 or 3, I'm thinking 3. So hopefully they have worked out any bugs <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Hi Jo,

I live in Warrnambool, Victoria. Kj goes to the Royal Childrens in Melbourne.

I'll have to ask the doc about what the air trial is. I havn't heard of that before.

Would be good to have the docs tell us what studies are going about!!

This is the first time we have ever been told about a drug trial.

Maybe you could let us know what your doc says about AIR <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

I have found more info on the Bronchitol. it is in a phase 3 trial and sounds very promising.

"BRONCHITOL tm Phase III trial in Bronchiectasis begins In April 2006, the first of 350 patients enrolled in a Phase III trial to treat the chronic obstructive lung disease, bronchiectasis. The trial will investigate the safety and effectiveness of Bronchitol in the treatment of bronchiectasis and is being conducted at 22 hospitals across Australia, New Zealand, the England and Northern Ireland. Two thirds of trial volunteers will receive Bronchitol and the remaining one third will receive a placebo.Patients will be assessed for mucus clearance and quality of life as measured by symptoms, cough severity, exercise capacity and lung function. The pivotal trial for Bronchitol is the final step before registration in Australia, New Zealand and the European Union.When complete, the results of the study should provide sufficient data for a marketing application to be lodged. Full patient recruitment is expected to take about 8 months and treatment approximately 4 months. Results are expected to be available in the June quarter of 2007."

"The net result for patients taking BRONCHITOL tm is expected to be:

improved mucus clearance;
longer cough-free periods;
improved lung performance; and,
fewer infections."
