Long term causal effects of ivacaftor on airway microbiology and lung function outcomes in people with CF: An emulation of target trials with the U.S. CF Foundation Patient Registry data
(NACFC 2025)
- "The per-protocol analysis censored individuals who deviated from their initial treatment, and a third approach further censored those who started other modulators (lumacaftor/ivacaftor or tezacaftor/ivacaftor). Our findings demonstrate a robust long-term clinical benefit over a 7-year period of ivacaftor across both clinical and microbiological outcomes, particularly among younger patients and those with gating mutations. These results provide real-world support for sustained ivacaftor use in eligible CF populations."

Theratyping of 400 CF-associated variants in FRT cells to assess variant responsiveness to triple combination CFTR modulator vanzacaftor/ tezacaftor/ivacaftor (VNZ/TEZ/IVA)
(NACFC 2025)
- "We recently published findings from a large-scale theratyping study, evaluating 655 CFTR variants, including 478 variants without FDA approval at the time, for their responsiveness to elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ELX/TEZ/IVA), the active ingredients of Trikafta® [1]...A clinical investigation of the new Vertex triple combination (ALYFTREK®)i... We demonstrated significant rescue efficacy of VNZ/TEZ/IVA for a high percentage of CFTR variants currently not on the label for approved HEMT, indicating that confirmatory studies by Vertex would be valuable for future label expansions. VNZ/TEZ/IVA treatment may provide a therapeutically meaningful approach for several variants that did not positively respond to ELX/TEZ/IVA."

Single-Nuclei RNA Sequencing reveals nasal epithelial changes in CF patients treated with ELE/TEZ/IVA
(ERS 2025)
- "Rationale: The combination of tezacaftor, elexacaftor, and ivacaftor (ELE/TEZ/IVA) has demonstrated significant benefits in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with specific mutations. Three months of ELE/TEZ/IVA treatment enhanced the proportion of basal cells (airway epithelial progenitors) and ionocytes (key CFTR-expressing cells) in clinically responsive patients. The observed reduction in interferon signaling suggests decreased viral susceptibility, highlighting the treatment's potential to restore epithelial homeostasis and improve clinical outcomes."

Personalized Dosing of ELE/TEZ/IVA in Cystic Fibrosis: integrating pharmacokinetics and pharmacogenetics for Improved Outcomes
(ERS 2025)
- "Rationale: Elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor (ELE-TEZ-IVA) is effective for CF patients with ≥1 F508del mutation, but interindividual variability in response and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) necessitate better understanding of pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacogenetics (PG). A larger cohort is yet ongoing to clarify exposure-response relationships and genetic variability's role in ADRs, with emerging trends for specific molecules/metabolites."

Effect of vanzacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor on cystic fibrosis airway epithelial cells
(ECFS 2025)
- "Objectives: The latest triple-component CFTR modulator drug, consisting of vanzacaftor (V), tezacaftor (T) and deutivacaftor (D), is becoming a new treatment alternative to the established combination of elexacaftor (E), tezacaftor (T) and ivacaftor (I) in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF)...ISC was measured after sequential addition of 100 M amiloride, 10 M forskolin (Fsk) and 100 M 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), 10 M I, 10 M CFTRinhibitor-172 (CFTRinh172) and 100 M ATP... Our results show significantly greater restoration of CFTR function in F508del/F508del HNEC treated with VTI compared to ETI. These results are in line with the improved sweat chloride values seen in the clinical trial.Supported by Ministry of Health of the Czech Republic, grant no NU23-07-00079."

How not to overlook a person with cystic fibrosis eligible for CFTR modulator therapy in a cystic fibrosis registry
(ECFS 2025)
- "The tiles display the number of assigned pwCF (their list is generated on click), all CFTRm treatment options with the first-line treatment listed first and information on region-specific regulatory approval (i.e. FDA approved only, EMA approved, EMA pending). Using this new interactive tool, 608 (84%) Czech pwCF were identified as eligible for one or more CFTRm drugs according to the EMA (584 for ETI as first line, 8 for LUM/IVA, 16 for IVA); 17 more will become eligible as they reach the minimum age. A further 36 pwCF are qualified for ETI or TEZ/IVA according to the FDA. This module allows the categorisation of pwCF based on age and genotype related indication criteria for CFTRm therapy, takes into account differences between FDA and EMA approved indications and can be easily adapted in case of any changes in eligibility. The system can serve as a model for other registries as it greatly simplifies the identification of all eligible pwCF for CFTRm."

(ECFS 2025)
- "In this single-center observational study we prospectively evaluated these in pwCF aged 6-17 years on lumacaftor/ivacaftor (Lum/Iva) or Elezacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor (ETI) therapy, followed at the CF center of Florence, Italy. AST-to-Platelet Ratio Index (APRI), GGT-to-Platelet Ratio (GPR), Fibrosis-4 (FIB-4), platelets, AST, ALT, GGT values were collected before and 12 months after Lum/Iva in F508del homozygous pwCF and 12 and 24 months after ETI in pwCF with at least one F508del variantFor APRI and GPR, the thresholds for Advanced CF Liver Disease (aCFLD) were according to Sellers et al. ETI decrease blood platelets in children and adolescents with CF, affecting the results of liver indices. These results warrant further validation and investigation for clinical significance."

Changes in health-related quality of life after the introduction of triple-modulator therapy in cystic fibrosis
(ECFS 2025)
- "Objective: The introduction of elaxacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) has led to improved symptoms and longer life expectancy in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF)... Among adolescents/adults, ETI had a positive impact on HRQoL with improvements in most domains lasting two years after initiation. Fewer HRQoL domains improved in children and the effects seen were less prominent compared to adolescents/adults likely because children had better scores before ETI therapy in most HRQoL domains. In adolescents/adults, gains in HRQoL mirrored benefits in clinical endpoints as previously reported.Funding: Funded by Vertex Pharmaceuticals."
