Impact of Elexacaftor-Tezacaftor-Ivacaftor on Quality of Life in Children With Cystic Fibrosis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objectives CFTR modulators have revolutionized cystic fibrosis (CF) management by targeting the defective protein rather than its consequences. Their impact on quality of life (QoL) have been studied in numerous trials, but few data are available on QoL in patients receiving Elexacaftor‐Tezacaftor‐Ivacaftor (ETI), notably in children given its

Quantitative Systems Toxicology Predicts Ivacaftor-Induced Oxidative Stress Contributes to CFTR Modulator Hepatotoxicity. [PDF]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a chronic hereditary disease that affects tens of thousands of people worldwide. The introduction of CFTR modulator therapies such as elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) has significantly improved the quality of life of people with CF.

The validated French CFAbd-Score reveals a lower burden of gastrointestinal symptoms in patients on Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor. [PDF]
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).

Real-life impact of highly effective CFTR modulator therapy in children with cystic fibrosis
Introduction: Recently, cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator modulator therapy with elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor has become available for children with cystic fibrosis (CF) carrying at least one F508del mutation.Objective: To assess the ...

Cystic fibrosis modulator therapy can reverse cystic bronchiectasis
Bronchiectasis is often considered progressive and irreversible, so cases of regression or reversal are an important step in understanding the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.

Efficacy and Safety of Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor in Children 6 Through 11 Years of Age with Cystic Fibrosis Heterozygous for F508del and a Minimal Function Mutation: A Phase 3b, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study [PDF]
Rationale: The triple-combination regimen elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ELX/TEZ/IVA) was shown to be safe and efficacious in children aged 6 through 11 years with cystic fibrosis and at least one F508del-CFTR allele in a phase 3, open-label, single ...

Evaluation of Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor-Mediated Drug-Induced Liver Injury Using a Liver-On-Chip Model. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI), a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapy, has provided great improvements in lung function and well‐being for people with CF. The use of ETI has been complicated by reports of rare but significant liver function test elevations in clinical trials and drug‐induced ...
