Massive 5,000-Person sweat study seeks clues to better CF care

NCT ID NCT03350828

Summary

This study aims to learn more about how newer cystic fibrosis (CF) drugs work by measuring sweat chloride levels in 5,000 patients already taking them. Researchers will collect a single sweat sample from each participant and combine it with their health records to see if changes in sweat relate to how well they are doing. The goal is to gather information that could help doctors better understand and use these treatments in the future.
