This trial is testing a new drug called itepekimab in people with NCFB to see if it is effective and safe. The study will last up to 77 weeks and involve monthly

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-85 with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB), who've had at least 2 moderate or 1 severe lung flare-up in the past year. They should have symptoms like cough, mucus, or frequent infections and a certain level of lung function.
What is being tested?
The study compares two doses of Itepekimab (an experimental drug) against a placebo to see which is better for NCFB. Participants are randomly assigned to one of three groups and will be monitored through visits or calls each month for up to about a year and a half.

While specific side effects aren't listed here, Itepekimab could potentially cause reactions related to the immune system since it targets IL-33, an inflammatory protein. This might include allergic reactions, fatigue, or respiratory issues.
