Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Whole genome sequencing of Korean patients with idiopathic bronchiectasis and their family will perform to identify disease-causing variants.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Idiopathic bronchiectasis may be a manifestation of genetic diseases such as cystic fibrosis, primary ciliary dyskinesia, etc. Diagnosis of these rare genetic diseases is crucial not only because some of the rare diseases developed already effective treatment options, but also the detection of syndrome enables us to detect other organ damages before the deterioration of them.

Several diagnostic tools have been developed; however, the genetic panel has limited screening efficacy due to the genetic heterogeneity of diseases. Even more, especially in Korea, the incidence of idiopathic bronchiectasis caused by the genetic disease is rare, most clinics have limited to assess specialized diagnostic tools such as the specialized genetic panels, sweat chloride test, and the electromagnetic detection tools for ciliary movement.

Whole genome sequencing may be an excellent solution to identify the neglected genetic diseases causing idiopathic bronchiectasis and explore the heterogeneity of disease-causing variants in Korean patients.

PROSPECTIVE

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Bronchiectasis

The patient with bronchiectasis who has no apparent bronchiectasis-causing etiology will be enrolled. The patient's family who has no bronchiectasis will be also enrolled to identify the patient-specific variants.

Whole genome sequencing

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Whole genome sequencing of patients and their family will be performed. Among the variants detected by WGS, disease-causing variants will be analyzed by using segregation analysis.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* If the patient has bronchiectasis proved by computed tomography (CT).
* The clinical features of the patient are suitable for ciliary dysfunction disease (primary ciliary dyskinesia, cystic fibrosis), alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency, and primary immune deficiency (hyper-immunoglobulin E syndrome, hypogammaglobulinemia, activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) delta syndrome, bare lymphocyte syndrome)
* The patient has no apparent medical events causing bronchiectasis.

Exclusion Criteria

* If the patient does not agree or withdraw
* If the patient has any clear etiology causing bronchiectasis including AIDS, malignancy, receiving immunosuppressant or chemotherapy.
