This is a longitudinal, observational epidemiological study designed to estimate the prevalence of depression, anxiety, and behavior problems in children ages 18 months through 11 years with cystic fibrosis (CF).
Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor or Trikafta improves lung health in people with cystic fibrosis (CF), including decreased cough and mucous production. Diagnosing lung infections has become more challenging due to the decrease in sputum and rise of telehealth services. While the option of collecting sputum samples at home and sending them by mail may be feasible, uncertainty remains about how the collection of samples outside of clinic and delays in testing while in the mail impact infection detection. This study will compare bacterial cultures using sputum samples collected at home versus samples collected in clinic (saline-induced sputum and throat swab). This study seeks to shed light on how valuable home collected samples can be and help us better understand the usefulness of home-collected sputum samples for both clinical and research purposes.
ARCT-032-02 is a Phase 2, open-label, multicenter, multiple-ascending dose study of ARCT-032 in adults with CF who are not eligible for CFTR modulator therapy or are not taking CFTR modulators due to drug intolerance, poor response, or lack of access to modulators.
The goal of this at-home, remote study is to understand how tube feeding affects blood sugars and sleep in adults living with Cystic Fibrosis Related Diabetes (CFRD).
The primary objective of this pilot study is to develop a CGM-based model to predict the progression from prediabetes to diabetes in individuals with cystic fibrosis.
The purpose of this study is to use a survey to measure reflux symptoms in patients with Cystic Fibrosis who are on reflux treatment, and to monitor their symptoms after stopping the reflux treatment.
The goal of this clinical trial is to help adolescents and young adults between the ages of 13-25 with Cystic Fibrosis (CF), medically stable, able to speak and read English, and are not experiencing a CF - related exacerbation, who are already active to remain, or gradually encourage them to increase their levels of physical activity Participants will be asked to utilize a smartphone program, called NUDGE that we have developed. NUDGE is a chatbot with evidence-based features known to help teens make progress toward health goal: * Set and review goals * Self-monitor progress * Provide feedback on goal attainment * Revise future goals
Many people living with cystic fibrosis (CF) experience pain. However, pain is sometimes unrecognized and under-managed in people with CF. Both medication and non-medication interventions can be used to treat pain and ideally, there is a multicomponent management approach. The goal of this study is to pilot a new 3-session non-medication mind-body pain management intervention specifically designed for adults with cystic fibrosis (CF). The intervention is titled Pain Acknowledgement Coping and Empowerment in CF (PACE CF). PACE CF will be administered by a member of the CF care team via telehealth visits to participants at home or during a hospitalization. The aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility and patient acceptability of the intervention as well as preliminary evidence of the impact of the intervention on pain and its interference in daily life. The study will also examine outcomes such as perceived coping, quality of life, symptoms of depression or anxiety, and use of prescribed pain medication, in an exploratory manner.
The purpose of this study is to find out what causes kidney disease in people with CF. The investigators will study biomarkers in the blood and urine that can either predict who is at risk or detect kidney damage early before it becomes permanent. The study will compare these markers in people with CF over time and during the treatment of lung flare-ups. It will also compare the blood and urine samples obtained from people without CF. The comparison aims to better understand the impact of cystic fibrosis and its treatment on the kidneys, as well as to develop improved methods for preventing, diagnosing, and treating kidney issues associated with CF.
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) related diabetes (CFRD) is a unique form of diabetes mellitus, different from type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. The diagnosis of CFRD is associated with a decline in pulmonary function, decreased nutritional status, and increased mortality. CFRD is extremely common in people with CF, occurring in approximately 40-50% of adults with CF. Impaired glucose tolerance or dysglycemia is also very common in CF. It is standard of care to screen for CFRD annually from the age of 10 years with a two-hour Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) with 75 g dextrose. The gold standard screening for CFRD is the OGTT which is problematic as it is time consuming for patient and staff and adherence to annual screening is low among CF centers. Survival has improved dramatically with the advent of CFTR modulators and it is presumed that the incidence of CFRD will increase with increased life expectancy. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF) has developed the oldest disease specific patient registry, consisting of approximately 35000 patients, so there is vast historical information available on individual patients and larger datasets on the CF community as a whole. Based on the 2021 CFF patient registry data, the current life expectancy for CF patients born between 2017 and 2021 is 53 years - a 15 year increase from a decade ago.
