Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Moxifloxacin in Bronchiectasis Patients

Effectiveness and Safety of Long-Term Intermittent Moxifloxacin Eradication Therapy in Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis: A 12-Month Randomized Controlled Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 10 Dec 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Bronchiectasis is a chronic respiratory disease characterized by recurrent infections, inflammation, and progressive lung damage. Frequent exacerbations are associated with increased morbidity, accelerated lung function decline, and reduced quality of life. Preventing exacerbations is a key therapeutic goal. Moxifloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic with broad-spectrum activity, may play a role in intermittent eradication therapy to reduce bacterial load, achieve microbiological clearance, and minimize exacerbation frequency. This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of long-term intermittent moxifloxacin therapy compared with standard care in patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis.
