Elexacaftor–Tezacaftor–Ivacaftor Reduces Revision Sinus Surgery in People With Cystic Fibrosis
Elexacaftor–tezacaftor–ivacaftor (ETI) was associated with a significant decrease in the frequency and rate of endoscopic sinus surgeries in patients with cystic fibrosis. These findings suggest an improvement in CF‐related chronic rhinosinusitis outcomes following ETI and may influence future CF treatment decisions.

Challenges to Assessing the Prevalence of Cystic Fibrosis in the Caribbean
ABSTRACT Cystic fibrosis (CF) is likely underdiagnosed in Caribbean populations due to non‐representative cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) variant screening panels, limited newborn screening programs, and structural healthcare barriers.

BACKGROUND: Ivacaftor is currently the only CFTR potentiator approved and is increasingly used since the development of CFTR correctors. Ivacaftor is metabolized by CYP3A4 and therefore dose reduction is required when treating patients on ivacaftor with ...

Tezacaftor/ivacaftor in people with cystic fibrosis heterozygous for minimal function CFTR mutations
Background: Tezacaftor/ivacaftor is a CFTR modulator approved to treat people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) who are homozygous (F/F) or heterozygous for the F508del-CFTR mutation and a residual function mutation (F/RF).

Investigation of the effects of the CFTR potentiator ivacaftor on human P-glycoprotein (ABCB1)
Ivacaftor is a potentiator of the CFTR chloride channel and is in worldwide clinical use for the chronic treatment of cystic fibrosis in patients. There is evidence that the bioavailability of ivacaftor in the body may be influenced by the multi-drug ...
