Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

CF patients enrolled in this protocol will be recruited from patients followed by the Adult CF Program at National Jewish Health. Patients will be selected based on planned use of a CFTR modulator by their primary physician. No patient will be started on (or will switch) CFTR modulator agents for the purpose of the study. After enrollment, biological samples may be collected at two different time points prior to treatment initiation. One set of samples will be collected at baseline health prior to CFTR modulator initiation or change. A second set of samples will be obtained in subjects at the time of acute pulmonary exacerbation, if one occurs prior to CFTR modulator initiation or change. Post CFTR modulator initiation study assessments will be obtained at least one month after starting treatment and continue up to 2 times a year (including during pulmonary exacerbations), in order to document longitudinal effects of therapies and changes in inflammatory biology over time. At the time of each biological sampling, blood, sputum sample, urine, and a quality of life assessment will be acquired in all enrolled subjects. In addition to demographic data, clinical data, such as quantitative microbiology and simple spirometry will be recorded at the time of sample collection.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change in blood inflammatory markers [Before initiation/change of CFTR modulator and after, on average 6 months apart]

      Changes in host inflammation as measured in peripheral blood memory T cells

    2. Change in sputum microbiology [Before initiation/change of CFTR modulator and after, on average 6 months apart]

      Changes in the bacterial burden in sputum as measured by bacterial RNA

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Changes in lung function [Before initiation/change of CFTR modulator and after, on average 6 months apart]

      Changes in lung function as measured by FEV1, % predicted

    2. Changes in urine inflammatory marker [Before initiation/change of CFTR modulator and after, on average 6 months apart]

      Changes in host inflammation as measured by urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL)

    3. Changes in quality of life [Before initiation/change of CFTR modulator and after, on average 6 months apart]

      Changes in quality of life as measured by Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire - Revised (CFQ-R)

    4. Changes in hospitalizations [Before initiation/change of CFTR modulator and after, on average 6 months apart]

      Changes in frequency/number of hospitalizations for treatment of pulmonary exacerbation
