Post-approval studies with the CFTR modulators Elexacaftor-Tezacaftor-Ivacaftor. [PDF]
Triple combination therapy with the CFTR modulators elexacaftor (ELX), tezacaftor (TEZ) and ivacaftor (IVA) has been qualified as a game changer in cystic fibrosis (CF).

Neuropsychiatric adverse effects from CFTR modulators deserve a serious research effort. [PDF]
Purpose of review This review highlights the problem of neuropsychiatric adverse effects (AEs) associated with elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI), current suboptimal mitigation approaches, a novel testable mechanistic hypothesis, and potential ...

Therapeutic Approaches for Patients with Cystic Fibrosis Not Eligible for Current CFTR Modulators
Cystic fibrosis is a severe autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene encoding the CFTR protein, a chloride channel expressed in many epithelial cells.

Impact of CFTR Modulators on the Impaired Function of Phagocytes in Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease [PDF]
Cystic fibrosis (CF), the most common genetically inherited disease in Caucasian populations, is a multi-systemic life-threatening autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. In

Revisiting Host-Pathogen Interactions in Cystic Fibrosis Lungs in the Era of CFTR Modulators. [PDF]
Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators, a new series of therapeutics that correct and potentiate some classes of mutations of the CFTR, have provided a great therapeutic advantage to people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF).

Nutritional impact of CFTR modulators in children with cystic fibrosis. [PDF]
Background Nutritional status is a major prognostic factor for breathing and the survival of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Since 2012, the development of CFTR modulators has considerably transformed the outcome of this disease.
