Abstract
Background
We characterized people with cystic fibrosis (CF) ineligible by genotype (not age) for currently approved CFTR modulator therapy using data from the US CF Foundation Patient Registry (CFFPR).
Methods
We summarized clinical characteristics using CFFPR data from 2017 to 2022. Annual rate of change in percent predicted of forced expiratory volume in one second (ppFEV1) was estimated using generalized estimating equations.
Results
A total of 2,790 individuals with CF met inclusion criteria. In 2022, 12 % were less than 6 years old, 16 % were age 6–12 years, 18 % age 12–18 years and 54 % were ≥18 years. The proportion identified as White was 74 %, 17 % Black, and 26 % as Hispanic. The median (IQR) age at diagnosis was 1.2 (0.5, 9.1) months for children and 3.1 (0.3, 17.4) years for adults. Median (IQR) ppFEV1 among children was 91.9 (80.3; 102.4) and among adults, 74.3 (52.4; 90.4). Pancreatic enzymes were prescribed for 77.8 %. Population-level average (95 % CI) rates of decline in ppFEV1 among the pancreatic insufficient population was -1.5 per year (-1.8; -1.2) for ages 6 to <11 years, -2.2 per year (-2.6; -1.8) for ages 12 to <18 years, and -1.5 per year (-1.7; -1.3) for adults.
Conclusions
We describe the CFTR modulator ineligible population in the US in 2017–2022. With a growing pipeline of therapies aimed at improving CFTR function for those who cannot benefit from modulators due to ineligibility, characterization of both the size and outcomes of these populations are critical to inform optimal clinical development plans and future clinical trials.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Cystic Fibrosis is the official journal of the European Cystic Fibrosis Society. The journal is devoted to promoting the research and treatment of cystic fibrosis. To this end the journal publishes original scientific articles, editorials, case reports, short communications and other information relevant to cystic fibrosis. The journal also publishes news and articles concerning the activities and policies of the ECFS as well as those of other societies related the ECFS.
