Bronchiectasis is a well-recognized chronic respiratory disease characterized by a productive cough and multi-microbial activation syndrome (MMAS) of various respiratory infections due to what can be the permanent dilatation of the bronchi. Bronchiectasis represents an ongoing challenge to conventional antibiotic treatment as the damaged bronchial environment remains conducive to ongoing opportunistic infections and microbial mutations, leading to multi-drug resistance. Standard treatment guidelines are designed to promptly identify and address the primary infection. Despite the strong focus on identification of the primary infection in each new episode, by combining clinical history, and high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), a high proportion of patients remain classified as "idiopathic". Important underlying infections, such as and other mold infections, , , , and various viruses, are frequently not identified for prolonged periods of time, and selected broad-spectrum antibiotics are often ineffective. The introduction of Induced Native Phage Therapy in 2021 and Induced Native Phage cocktails in 2024 provides a new treatment alternative that induces naturally occurring phages to eliminate specifically targeted acute and chronic mixed infections even in cases of multi-drug resistant infections as seen in chronic bronchiectasis. This article will present the successful long-term results in a case study demonstrating the speed, gentleness, and effectiveness of induced native phage cocktails in a 45-year-old male with life-long asthma resulting in multi-microbial activation syndrome in severe non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis for the last 20 years.
