Doctors try existing CF drugs on patients left behind by current treatments

NCT ID NCT03587961

Summary

This early study is testing whether three existing cystic fibrosis drugs (Symdeko, Orkambi, and Kalydeco) might help patients who have rare genetic mutations that aren't currently approved for these treatments. Researchers will give 20 participants the drug that lab tests suggest might work best for their specific mutation. The main goal is to see if these 'off-label' uses can improve lung function in people with these uncommon CF mutations.
