First patient dosed in BX004 study for CF-related lung infection

The first participant has been dosed in a Phase 2b clinical trial testing BiomX’s experimental inhaled therapy BX004 in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF) and chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa lung infection. “This first patient dosing marks a significant milestone for our BX004 program and for CF patients with chronic P. aeruginosa infections who desperately need new options,” Jonathan Solomon, BiomX’s CEO, said in a company press release.

Newborn CF Screening Tied to Lower Health Costs in 1st Year of Life

Among methods used to diagnose cystic fibrosis (CF) in France, newborn screening (NBS) was associated with the lowest healthcare expenses during the first year of life, according to a large, population-based study. Fewer inpatient hospitalizations primarily drove the lower costs when infants were diagnosed via NBS, the data showed. “Our study adds new knowledge of direct HC [healthcare] costs involved in young [CF children] and shows that diagno…See the Story

What’s in my bag? Wallet, keys, and a CF emergency kit.

I’ve always carried a heavy purse. Stay with me here. Years ago, when I was waiting for a double-lung transplant, my mom would often accompany me to my doctor appointments. She’d graciously offer to carry my bag, but almost always commented on the weight. “What the heck do you have in here?” she’d ask. “Everything but the kitchen sink,” I’d respond. In addition to the usual items you might find in a woman’s purse — wallet, phone, keys, and lip b…Read Article

I have a love-hate relationship with my port-a-cath

Planning pregnancy after CF lung transplant tied to better results

Women with conditions such as cystic fibrosis (CF) who planned their pregnancies after a lung transplant experienced better outcomes compared with those who did not plan their pregnancies, according to a recent study. Those positive outcomes included longer gestation periods, higher birth weights of their babies, and a lower risk of maternal death following pregnancy. Pregnancies in women receiving a transplant are particularly complex due to po…Mississippi · Mississippi Read Article

My dog’s sudden illness reminded me what it means to be resilient

Like many others, I never want to feel like cystic fibrosis (CF) is holding me back in any way. Yet the condition has shaped many of my experiences and taught me so much, including resiliency. At different times — mostly during periods of stability and complacency — I’ve forgotten what it means to be resilient. I’ve benefited enough from a CFTR modulator that I now get to take the longer view on my life. While that’s a great privilege, it’s also…Washington DC · Washington Read Article

Non-antibiotic CMTX-101 reduces lung bacteria in cystic fibrosis:...

Adding the experimental treatment CMTX-101 to standard antibiotics reduced the number of Pseudomonas aeruginosa — a type of bacteria often involved in serious infections — in the lungs of people with cystic fibrosis (CF), while also being safe and well tolerated. These are interim findings from 21 patients in a Phase 1b/2a clinical study (NCT06159725) that’s testing how safe CMTX-101 is compared with a placebo and how well it works as a single i…Maryland · Maryland Read Article

Drugs to stabilize CFTR protein region may help manage CF: Study

A lack of stability in a specific region of the CFTR protein may explain why certain people with cystic fibrosis (CF) don’t respond to available modulator therapies, a new study suggests. The findings imply drugs to stabilize this specific region — some of which are already in clinical development — may help manage CF in people who don’t respond to available therapies, researchers said. The study, “Proteostasis landscapes of cystic fibrosis vari…National Institutes of Health · Mississippi Read Article

I learned the hard way how to recognize signs of hypoxia

I felt like I’d received a roundhouse kick to the head while drunk. My head was pounding and I couldn’t think straight. Words were difficult to form. Sentences seemed impossible. This might sound like the result of a wild night of partying, but for me, these were actually signs of hypoxia, or low blood oxygen. While living with cystic fibrosis (CF) lungs, my breathing was never good. I struggled to get enough air, let alone breathe through thick…Read Article
