NCT ID NCT05474417
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether people who carry one copy of the cystic fibrosis gene (CF carriers) have early signs of kidney or pancreas problems. Researchers will compare 1250 CF carriers and non-carriers using blood tests, urine and stool samples, and surveys. The goal is to see if carriers have higher risks for conditions like diabetes or kidney disease.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If this study finds clear links, it could lead to earlier monitoring or preventive care for CF carriers at risk of kidney or pancreas problems.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not find strong evidence, and results may not apply to all CF carriers.
