Cystic fibrosis drug repurposed: can a liver medication fix lung function?
Disease control TerminatedThis early-phase trial tested whether glycerol phenylbutyrate (Ravicti), a drug already used for urea cycle disorders, could help restore chloride transport in the nasal cells of adults with cystic fibrosis. The study enrolled 16 participants and compared low-dose Ravicti to a pl…

MRI vs. CT: a safer way to track cystic fibrosis lung health?
Knowledge-focused TerminatedThis study looked at whether MRI scans can detect changes in the lungs of people with cystic fibrosis as well as CT scans do. CT scans use radiation, so finding a reliable alternative like MRI could mean safer monitoring over time. The study included 212 patients aged 8 and older…
