Such technologies offer the opportunity to move towards decentralised clinical trials that are done partly or fully outside the classic clinical trial setting and are characterised by remote data collection and monitoring. This approach to evaluating clinical, pharmacological, or behavioural interventions could facilitate recruitment of inclusive and generalisable study populations, enhance personalisation and sustainability, reduce research costs, and accelerate the timeline to novel asthma treatments' market access. This Personal View discusses the application of digital technologies and endpoints within trials; the concept of hybrid and decentralised designs; describes a fully decentralised trial in asthma; and explores the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats regarding their implementation from the clinician, patient expert, low-resource, and regulator viewpoints.","PeriodicalId":51307,"journal":{"name":"Lancet Respiratory Medicine","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":76.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142782707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

N1303K (Asn1303Lys), one of the most common class 2 CFTR defects, has not been approved for these therapies by any regulatory agency. Preclinical investigation by our laboratories showed N1303K CFTR activation with elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor (ETI). In this trial, we evaluate whether ETI improves CFTR function, measured by sweat chloride and other clinical outcomes, in people with cystic fibrosis and CFTR<sup>N1303K</sup>.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>In this prospective, open-label, single-arm trial, participants aged 12 years or older with cystic fibrosis encoding at least one N1303K variant and at least one CFTR<sup>N1303K</sup> allele who were ineligible for modulator therapy by US Food and Drug Administration labelling were given ETI for 28 days followed by a 28-day washout period at two cystic fibrosis centres in the USA. Participants received two orally administered pills of 100 mg elexacaftor, 50 mg tezacaftor, and 75 mg ivacaftor once daily in the morning, and 150 mg ivacaftor once daily in the evening. The primary endpoint was mean change in sweat chloride from baseline up to day 28 compared with mixed-effects models. Secondary endpoints were changes in percentage of predicted FEV<sub>1</sub> (ppFEV<sub>1</sub>), Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R) respiratory domain, BMI, and weight after ETI therapy. Safety was assessed in all participants who received at least one dose of the study drug and primary and secondary analyses were performed in all participants who took the study drug per protocol. The trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03506061) and remains open for reporting purposes.</p><p><strong>Findings: </strong>Between June 7, 2022, and Oct 20, 2023, 20 participants (ten male and ten female) were enrolled and received ETI treatment. One participant was lost to follow-up but was included in intention-to-treat analyses. At 28 days, the mean sweat chloride reduction was -1·1 mmol/L (95% CI -5·3 to 3·1; p=0·61) with only one participant showing a sweat chloride decrease greater than 15 mmol/L. There was a mean increase in ppFEV<sub>1</sub> from baseline at day 28 of 9·5 percentage points (6·7-12·3; p<0·0001) with 15 (75%) participants showing at least a 5% increase in ppFEV<sub>1</sub>. Improvements were also identified in mean CFQ-R respiratory domain score (20·8 increase [95% CI 11·9-29·8]; p<0·0001), BMI (0·4 kg/m<sup>2</sup> increase [0·2-0·7]; p=0·0017), and weight (1·0 kg increase [0·4-1·7]; p=0·0020) after 28 days of ETI treatment. 14 (70%) of 20 participants had adverse events (12 [60%] mild, one [5%] moderate), with one (5%) serious adverse event of hospitalisation attributed to pneumonia.
