Brief Summary
This study aims to find out whether the tablet CHF10196 is safe and effective for people with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, a long-term lung disease that causes widened airways, mucus buildup, infections, and flare ups of symptoms. The main goal is to see whether CHF10196 can reduce the number of lung flareups each year compared with placebo. The study will also assess whether it can improve lung function, quality of life, and overall safety. The study has two phases. In the first phase, participants receive either CHF10196 tablets or placebo without knowing which one they are taking. In the second phase, all participants receive CHF10196 so its long-term safety can be further studied. Adults aged 18 to 85 years and adolescents aged 12 to under 18 years can take part, while continuing their usual stable bronchiectasis treatment. Up to about 2.5 years of participation are planned. Around 900 participants will be enrolled, with regular clinic visits and phone check ins. In the first phase, participants take either CHF10196 or inactive tablets once daily; in the second phase, everyone takes CHF10196 once daily. Temporary treatment interruptions are allowed if needed, and participants who stop treatment early may still continue study visits, depending on the study phase.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Signed and dated informed consent obtained prior to any study-related procedure; Adolescents: Written informed consent obtained from the parent(s)/legally authorised representative(s) (according to the local regulation) and written or verbal assent by the participant (when appropriate), obtained prior to any study-related procedures;
- Adults: Male or female participant ≥18 and ≤85 years of age; Adolescents: Male or female participant ≥12 and \<18 years of age;
- Adults: BMI (body mass index) \>18.5 kg/m² at screening; Adolescents: Body weight \>30 kg at screening;
- Clinical history consistent with bronchiectasis (cough, chronic sputum production, and/or recurrent respiratory infections) confirmed by centralised reading of a chest CT, not more than 5 years old demonstrating bronchiectasis affecting 1 or more lobes; Note: If no recent chest CT is available, or if the records/report is not available, a new CT chest will be performed during the screening period;
- A history of at least 2 pulmonary exacerbations treated with antibiotics, or 1 pulmonary exacerbation treated with antibiotics with additional risk factors (SGRQ Symptoms score at screening \>40) in the past 12 months prior to screening; Adolescents: A history of at least 1 pulmonary exacerbation in the 12 months prior to screening;
- Post-bronchodilator FEV1 ≥30% of the predicted value, calculated using the Global Lung Function Initiative 2012 reference equations; Note: in case post-bronchodilator spirometry quality is not judged satisfactory as per ATS/ERS acceptability and usability criteria\*, it may be re-checked on the same day (after a sufficient period of rest) or once before randomisation if it cannot be performed on the same day;
- Participants may either be:
- on stable background therapy for at least 3 months prior to screening;
- not on background therapy at screening and not planning to start background therapy;
- Able to provide sputum at screening (adults only);
- Cooperative attitude and ability to read/write, perform all study-related procedures, and use electronic device, ability to understand the risks involved;
- If female, the participant must be of non-childbearing potential, surgically sterile, postmenopausal, or she and her partner must use adequate methods of contraception\*\* during the study and for 90 days after the last dose of study intervention. Participants must not donate eggs during the study and for 90 days after the last dose of IMP (investigational medicinal product); Note: In case of hormonal contraception, an additional non-hormonal method (barrier method, preferably male condom) is required. The status of adolescent females being not of childbearing potential at screening will be monitored at each further visit (except the Follow-up visit);
- If male, the participant and his partner must agree to use adequate methods of contraception\*\* during the study and for at least 90 days after the last dose of study intervention.
- Participant's written informed consent for the OLE Phase obtained prior to any study-related procedures of the OLE Phase; Adolescents: Written informed consent for the OLE Phase obtained from the parent(s)/legal representative(s) (according to the local regulation) and written or verbal assent by the participant (when appropriate), obtained prior to any study-related procedures of the OLE Phase;
- Participants (adults or adolescents) who completed the treatment period of the Main Phase
- +3 more criteria
You may not qualify if:

- Participants with a severe concomitant disease or disorder that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may put the participant at risk by participating in the study, or interfere with the participant's treatment, assessment, or influence the results of the study, or have compliance issues with the study. Examples include, but are not limited to, cardiovascular conditions (e.g. NYHA Class III or IV cardiac failure), pulmonary conditions (e.g. severe pulmonary fibrosis or lung transplantation), infectious diseases (e.g. severe COVID-19 infection), gastrointestinal conditions, hepatobiliary conditions (e.g. Child-Pugh class B or C), severe renal conditions (e.g. severe nephrotic syndrome), neurological conditions (e.g. demyelinating diseases), musculoskeletal, endocrine, metabolic or psychiatric conditions;

- Have an abnormal renal function test result (eGFR \<60 mL/min by CKD-EPI formula for adults or CKiD-U25 formula for adolescents) at screening
- Participants with an absolute blood neutrophil count \<1000/ mm3 at screening;
- Participants with a history of alcohol or drug abuse within 6 months prior to screening as per DSM V criteria;
- Clinically significant abnormal laboratory values at screening that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may put the participant at risk by participating in the study, or interfere with the participant's treatment or assessment, or influence the results of the study;
