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.

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.
