Secondary Pathophysiologies
The steps from CF gene to CFTR protein
• CF gene (chromosome #7)
– Codes for…
• CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator)
– Membrane protein that regulates salt transport

What is a CFTR modulator, and why is it
different from other CF therapies?
• Modulator – targets underlying defects in CFTR
– Restore function (not replace)
• Addresses primary cause of CF
– Not downstream symptoms
• Different defects – different targets – different strategies
– Generally based on CF mutation class

‘Discover’: 24-week randomized, double-blind, placebocontrolled trial; children 6-11 years old with at least one copy of
G551D, (N = 52)
Primary endpoint:
•Ivacaftor was associated with improved lung function; relative
improvement from baseline for FEV1 relative to the placebo
group was 17.4% (p<0.0001)
Secondary endpoints:
•Those in the treated group through week 24 saw a drop of sweat
chloride levels to 60 mmol/L from a base of 104 mmol/L; a
significant drop was not observed in the placebo group
•Those in the treated group gained 3.7kg through 24 weeks
compared to the placebo group that gained 1.8kg

Effect of F508 CFTR on ‘Destiny’
• F508 CFTR – most common cause of CF
– 80-90% of CF patients, 65-70% of CF chromosomes
– Protein misfolding in the endoplasmic reticulum
• Protein marked for degradation
• Failure to ‘mature’ and reach plasma membrane
