Investment will support discovery research of a novel Gene CodingTM approach that could benefit all people with CF regardless of their mutation
This medicine represents the single greatest therapeutic advancement in the history of CF, offering a treatment for the underlying cause of the disease that could eventually benefit more than 90 percent of people with CF.
Today, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation awarded $2.76 million for 11 laboratory studies that will advance our understanding of the underlying factors that impact COVID-19 outcomes in people with cystic fibrosis. Ultimately, insights gained from this body of research may be used to improve future treatments.
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has joined 11 other patient groups in filing an amicus brief to challenge the short-term, limited-duration health insurance rule, which threatens access to adequate, affordable coverage for people with cystic fibrosis.
Observational study supported by the CF Foundation will monitor real-world experience with Trikafta
Today, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation announced it has awarded up to $3.3 million to Polyphor AG to develop an inhaled version of murepavadin, an antibiotic that targets multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in people with cystic fibrosis. About 17% of individuals with CF who had Pseudomonas infections last year had multi-drug resistant strains.
The Cystic Fibrosis Registry Global Harmonization Group published in the Journal of Cystic Fibrosis updated data on the impact of COVID-19 on people with CF. The manuscript reports on 181 people with cystic fibrosis from 19 countries diagnosed with COVID-19.
