Respiratory Oscillometry and Multimodal Lung Function Assessment of Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor Response in Children and Young Adults With Cystic Fibrosis

open access: yesPediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background To date, there is no data on forced oscillation technique (FOT) as a tool to evaluate elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) modulator in young patients with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). Objective Our study aimed to assess the effect of a 6‐month ETI treatment on FOT parameters and compare it to the effect on spirometry and nitrogen ...

Modeling long-term health outcomes of patients with cystic fibrosis homozygous for treated with lumacaftor/ivacaftor

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 2019
Background: Lumacaftor/ivacaftor combination therapy is efficacious and generally safe for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) homozygous for the F508del-CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutation.

Ex vivo model predicted in vivo efficacy of CFTR modulator therapy in a child with rare genotype

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2021
Background New drugs that target the basic defect in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients may now be used in a large number of patients carrying responsive mutations. Nevertheless, further research is needed to extend the benefit of these treatments to patients

Pediatric population with cystic fibrosis in the centre of Portugal: candidates for new therapies

open access: yesJornal de Pediatria, 2022
Objectives: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a severe autosomal recessive disease that results from mutations in a gene encoding the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) protein, a chloride channel.

Effects of cAMP and CFTR modulation on apical fluid pH in human airway Calu‐3 cells

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, February 2026.
Abstract The airway epithelium serves as the first line of defense against inhaled insults present in the external environment by acting as a physical barrier and through host defense mechanisms. Proper maintenance of these host defense mechanisms relies on the regulation of airway surface liquid (ASL) composition and properties, a process that is ...

Structure-activity analysis of a CFTR channel potentiator: Distinct molecular parts underlie dual gating effects. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a member of the ATP-binding cassette transporter superfamily that functions as an epithelial chloride channel. Gating of the CFTR ion conduction pore involves a conserved irreversible

Farmacogenética en Fibrosis Quística. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
La fibrosis quística (a partir de ahora referida como FQ) fue descrita por primera vez en 1936 como una entidad separada. También recibía el nombre de “mucoviscidosis” debido a la acumulación de espesas secreciones mucosas que bloqueaban las vías aéreas,

Predictive factors for lumacaftor/ivacaftor clinical response [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cystic Fibrosis, 2019
Ivacaftor-lumacaftor combination therapy corrects the F508 del-CFTR mutated protein which causes Cystic Fibrosis. The clinical response of the patients treated with the combination therapy is highly variable. This study aimed to determine factors involved in the individual's response to lumacaftor-ivacaftor therapy.Sweat test was assessed at baseline ...

The validated French CFAbd‐Score reveals a lower burden of gastrointestinal symptoms in patients on Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Volume 82, Issue 1, Page 24-32, January 2026.
Abstract Objectives Multiorgan abdominal involvement is a hallmark of Cystic fibrosis (CF). The CFAbd‐Score© is the first CF‐specific gastrointestinal patient reported outcome‐measure (PROM) developed following FDA‐guidelines. The PROM has proved to sensitively differentiate people with CF (pwCF) from healthy controls (HC).

Preclinical evaluation of the epithelial sodium channel inhibitor BI 1265162 for treatment of cystic fibrosis

open access: yesERJ Open Research, 2020
Background Epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) is an important regulator of airway surface liquid volume; ENaC is hyperactivated in cystic fibrosis (CF). ENaC inhibition is a potential therapeutic target for CF.
