Scientists probe link between cystic fibrosis and brittle bones
NCT ID NCT03492567
Summary
This study aimed to understand why people with cystic fibrosis (CF) are at higher risk for fragile bones (osteoporosis). Researchers took blood samples from 25 adult CF patients to study specific cells that can break down bone. They also tested in the lab whether CFTR modulator drugs, which treat the underlying CF defect, could affect these bone-damaging cells.
