Drugs Associated with Pediatric Cataracts: A Real-World Pharmacovigilance Study.
(PubMed, Children (Basel))
- "Difluprednate showed the highest pharmacovigilance signal (ROR: 963.67; 95% CI: 316.27-2936.31; n = 4). Notably, CFTR modulators exhibited striking signals: ivacaftor (ROR: 30.75; 95% CI: 18.06-52.37; n = 14), elexacaftor-ivacaftor-tezacaftor (ROR: 15.58; 95% CI: 9.86-24.63; n = 19), and ivacaftor-lumacaftor (ROR: 13.2; 95% CI: 7.9-22.07; n = 15). This study provides a comprehensive large-scale pharmacovigilance profile of drug-induced pediatric cataracts, identifying agents with high-risk pharmacovigilance signals and underscoring the need for proactive ocular monitoring. These findings can inform clinical decision making and prevention strategies and guide future mechanistic research."

Impact of Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator Modulating Therapies on Liver Transplant Outcomes.
(PubMed, Gastro Hep Adv)
- "Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of CFTR modulators: ivacaftor (January 31, 2012; single therapy), ivacaftor-lumacaftor (July 2, 2015; dual therapy), and ivacaftor-tezacaftor-elexacaftor (October 21, 2019; triple therapy). There were no significant differences in post-LT survival pre- and post-FDA approval of single, dual, or triple CFTR therapy. These findings suggest that CFTR modulators may mitigate CFrLD complications and delay the need for waitlisting as physicians await the patient's response to therapy and reassess the need for LT."

A Systematic Review (SR) and Network Meta-Analysis (NMA) of Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Receptor (CFTR) Modulator Therapies and Established Clinical Management (ECM) Using Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second...
(ISPOR-EU 2025)
- "OBJECTIVES: This research aimed to assess the effectiveness of elexacafor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ELX/TEZ/IVA), lumacaftor/ivacaftor (LUM/IVA) and tezacaftor/ivacaftor (TEZ/IVA) compared to each other and ECM. An SR was conducted to identify relevant studies assessing the acute effects of CFTR modulators on ppFEV1... CFTR modulators lead to acute improvements in ppFEV1 for people with CF. The magnitude of this improvement is considerably larger for ELX/TEZ/IVA. While there is a strong evidence base for the acute improvements, modelling long-term changes in ppFEV1 decline following CFTR modulator therapy remains challenging."

Modeling CF patient-specific responses to modulators using human induced pluripotent stem cells
(NACFC 2025)
- "Cultures were treated with VX-809/VX-770 or VX-445/VX-661/VX-770 for 48 hours, and CFTR functional rescue was assessed using an apical chloride conductance assay. iPSC-derived lung models offer a renewable, patient-specific platform for theratyping in CF. While fetal lung progenitors provided strong responses, making them useful for early-stage modulator screening, mature airway models captured patient-specific cellular diversity, which may contribute to variable modulator responses. By enabling genetically matched comparisons and capturing inter-individual variability, these models represent a promising tool for optimizing treatment strategies in CF (Figure 1)."

Sweat sodium: chloride ratio differs in people with CF by CFTR modulator treatment status
(NACFC 2025)
- "We compared sweat sodium: chloride ratios in pwCF pre- and post-treatment with lumacaftor/ivacaftor (LUM/IVA), tezacaftor/ivacaftor (TEZ/IVA), ivacaftor (IVA), or elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI). Sweat sodium: chloride ratios increased following treatment with moderately effective (LUM/IVA and TEZ/IVA) and, to a greater degree, highly effective modulators (IVA and ETI). Sweat sodium: chloride ratios normalized in some pwCF despite having sweat chloride values that remained elevated, suggesting that sweat sodium relative to chloride may serve as an additional biomarker of CFTR function and predictor of sufficient CFTR response for symptom improvement."
