CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease resulting from insufficient cystic fibrosis transmembrane
conductance regulator (CFTR) protein levels or function due to mutations in the CFTR gene on
chromosome 7 (1–3). As a result of defective or insufficient CFTR proteins in mucous membranes
throughout the body, salt and water dysregulation causes progressive damage within multiple
organ systems in which fluid transport is crucial to function. Thus, CF is a multisystem disease,
which most frequently affects the respiratory system (bronchiectasis, sinusitis), the pancreas
(CF-related diabetes in endocrine dysfunction, malabsorption in exocrine dysfunction), the
gastrointestinal tract (distal intestinal obstruction syndrome, biliary liver disease), the reproduc-
tive system (congenital absence of the vas deferens in men, decreased fertility in women), and

EPIDEMIOLOGY

CF affects people of all races and ethnicities and is estimated to occur in ∼1:1,000 to ∼1:30,000 live
births depending on the genetic ancestry of the population (Figure 1) (6, 7). CF patient registries
in Europe and the United States include 82,000 people who have been diagnosed with CF (8,
9). The worldwide prevalence and incidence of undiagnosed disease are likely substantial due to
unrecorded cases in countries without robust diagnostic capabilities and patient registries, though
diagnosis rates are increasing with the expanded awareness of the disease in individuals who are
Black, Indigenous, or people of color (BIPOC). CF has been diagnosed with particularly increased
frequencies in Asia and Africa in recent years (10–12). Due to autosomal recessive inheritance,
significant portions of the world population (∼10 million in the United States) are asymptomatic
carriers of disease-causing CFTR mutations (8, 13).
The most common disease-causing mutation in CF individuals of European ancestry,
Phe508del (F508del, deletion of the phenylalanine at the 508 position of the protein), occurs in

The CFTR protein is a transmembrane ATPase [ATP-binding cassette (ABC)] that also functions
as an anion channel and is regulated by cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate) and protein
kinase A phosphorylation (17, 18). Mutations may cause a variety of abnormalities in the CFTR
protein, ranging from protein folding defects (leading to mild decreases in ion transport efficiency
Annu. Rev. Med. 2023.74:413-426. Downloaded from www.annualreviews.org
at the cellular membrane) to complete absence of mature proteins due to the natural cellular
processing and degradation of aberrant proteins (5). CFTR ion channels are highly prevalent in
epithelial cells and serve as important ion and water regulators in multiple organ systems. Thus,
the severity of the protein defect often correlates with the severity of clinical disease (16).
To conceptualize and develop targeted therapies for the numerous genetic variants described
thus far, researchers have classified disease-causing mutations into six categories (19–21). Class I
mutations result from premature termination of transcription, as in the case of nonsense muta-
tions, some frameshift mutations, and some mRNA splice site mutations or deletions. As a result,
class I mutations cause severely decreased total CFTR protein levels and are typically associated
with severe disease. Class II mutations include the common F508del variant and thus account for a
large portion of clinical cases. These processing mutations cause misfolding of the CFTR protein,
which in turn leads to clearance of the abnormal products in the endoplasmic reticulum during
normal cellular processing and low amounts of mature CFTR protein being trafficked to the cell
surface. Furthermore, class II mutations probably cause additional folding abnormalities that de-
crease the function of any protein that is successfully trafficked to the cell membrane. Class III
mutations are termed gating mutations, which cause ineffective ion transport due to abnormali-
ties in the CFTR channel pore regulation. These mutations typically allow sufficient quantities
of CFTR protein at the cell surface. Class IV mutations are termed conduction mutations, with
reduced conductance across the ion channel. Like class III mutations, they result in decreased ion
transport across the channel despite preserved total surface protein. Class V mutations alter pro-
moter regions or splice sites and thus result in decreased total protein at the cell surface. Class VI
mutations lead to instability of the mature CFTR protein at the cell surface, resulting in increased
turnover of functional protein and decreased total ion transport in the cell.
While this classification system describes the broad categories of genetic defects, more recent
evidence suggests that many mutations exhibit features of more than one class (21). For exam-
ple, the well-studied F508del mutation is classified as a class II mutation but exhibits features of
class III and IV defects as well. This concept is confirmed clinically, since combination modulator
therapies designed to benefit multiple classes of mutations are more beneficial than single-agent
pharmacotherapy (22, 23). Thus, drugs that correct any CFTR defect may be beneficial for mul-
tiple classes of mutations.
Alternative classification systems have been employed as well. Residual function mutations
are those that enable enough CFTR protein expression at the cellular surface so that clinical
ramifications of disease are relatively mild, whereas minimal function mutations are those that
result in little to no functional protein. Although class II and III mutations are considered minimal

function mutations because of the lack of cell surface protein they cause, they do produce some
protein. In contrast, class I mutations, also considered minimal function mutations, are associated
with poor response to conventional modulator therapies. Because premature termination codons
(as well as frameshift and splice junction mutations) prevent translation of any protein to modulate,
CFTR modulator therapies are not an option for such mutations (Figure 2) (21).

commercially available and have transformed the lives of people with CF, dramatically improving
clinical outcomes (25–28). In the pre-modulator era of CF care, most therapeutic interventions
were aimed at decreasing the single-organ manifestations of CF. For example, inhaled hypertonic
saline and dornase alfa thinned sputum to improve airway clearance; antibiotics were frequently
used in repeated pulmonary exacerbations of bronchiectasis; pancreatic enzyme supplementation
was employed in those with exocrine pancreatic dysfunction; and insulin was increasingly required
as CF patients aged, due to progressive islet cell destruction related to pancreatic duct mucoid
plugging (29, 30). The discovery of modulators has led to a radical shift in the therapeutic approach
to CF because these drugs correct the CFTR protein dysfunction at the cellular level and thus have
the capacity to prevent the development of end organ damage related to ion and fluid imbalance
at the cellular level. The development, clinical results, and future directions of modulator therapy
and next-generation therapies are outlined chronologically below.
surface turnover defects (39). While F508del seems to also cause conformational defects leading
to gating abnormalities, the singular effect of gating correction is not sufficient to restore function
to a clinically meaningful degree due to a scarcity of ion channels successfully transported to the
cellular membrane. The frequency of the F508del mutation varies across populations, but because
it is the most common mutation (with 84.7% of people with CF in the United States carrying at
least one copy), the focus of CFTR modulator development turned to correctors—drugs that
could increase the number of ion channels on the epithelial cell surface (46, 47).
Two phase III studies of the dual combination tezacaftor-ivacaftor were conducted simulta-
neously. In people homozygous for F508del, tezacaftor-ivacaftor improved ppFEV1 (+4.0%, p <
0.001) and lowered the rate of pulmonary exacerbations (−35%, p = 0.005) compared to placebo
(55). In people who were heterozygous for F508del and a residual function mutation, including
Annu. Rev. Med. 2023.74:413-426. Downloaded from www.annualreviews.org
some people ineligible for ivacaftor at the time of the study, tezacaftor-ivacaftor improved ppFEV1
(+6.8%, p < 0.001) compared to placebo and (+2.1%, p < 0.001) compared to ivacaftor alone (44).
Based on these results, tezacaftor-ivacaftor was approved for clinical use in 2018 for any person
with CF having at least one F508del mutation or one of a subset of well-described residual func-
tion mutations. Expansions of mutation indications have followed, based on in vitro data (27).
These dual combination corrector-potentiator modulators confirmed the synergistic efficacy
of a multidrug approach to CFTR dysfunction, particularly due to the F508del mutation. Fur-
thermore, tezacaftor-ivacaftor allowed more people with CF to become eligible for modulator
therapy than lumacaftor-ivacaftor or ivacaftor alone. However, neither lumacaftor nor tezacaftor
is considered a highly effective modulator, given the modest clinical [ppFEV1, body mass index
(BMI), CFQ-R respiratory domain, sweat chloride, and pulmonary exacerbations] and preclinical
improvement in function in F508del patients compared to ivacaftor’s robust effect on gating and
conductance mutations. Furthermore, a significant portion (∼42%) of people with CF remained
ineligible for any modulator therapy (46, 52). Thus, the search continued for a highly effective
therapy that would impact most people with CF, particularly for a corrector synergistic with the
available dual combination modulators (Table 2).

if significant elevations are seen (25). Cataracts developed in juvenile rats receiving ivacaftor and
have been described in young children taking ivacaftor; thus, eye exams are recommended with
prescriptions to children taking ivacaftor or ivacaftor-containing modulators (i.e., all approved
modulator therapies) (25–28).
Subsequent real-world studies have highlighted the sustained benefit of highly effective mod-
ulator therapy with ivacaftor in those with responsive mutations, with a slower rate of pulmonary
function decline, fewer pulmonary exacerbations and hospitalizations, improved nutritional sta-
tus, and even some indication for lower rates of CF-related diabetes and restoration of pancreatic
exocrine function (64, 65). These data challenge prior notions that pulmonary and some extrapul-
monary tissue injury is nonreversible in CF and provide clues to the substantial long-term benefits
of highly effective modulator therapy.
While dual combination modulators lumacaftor-ivacaftor and tezacaftor-ivacaftor in F508del
homozygous populations did not perform as robustly as ivacaftor in individuals with highly
responsive mutations, long-term follow-up data showed a slower rate of pulmonary function
decline, a likely survival benefit over time (66–68). Since both drugs include ivacaftor, safety
concerns related to liver enzyme elevations and cataract development, particularly in youths,
apply (26, 27). Interestingly, study subjects experienced bronchospasm with lumacaftor-ivacaftor
leading to discontinuation, but not with tezacaftor-ivacaftor, a trend that continued post market
(23, 54). Lumacaftor is a strong inducer of CYP3A, a liver enzyme commonly involved in drug
metabolism (26). This creates complex drug–drug interactions with common agents such as
antifungal therapies and oral contraceptive drugs.
Due to the recency of clinical availability of the triple combination modulator elexacaftor-
tezacaftor-ivacaftor, long-term follow-up data on clinical efficacy and safety are not yet widely
available. The 24-week interim report of the extension trial showed sustained lung function
improvement, a continued increase in BMI, and continued increase in quality of life as mea-
sured by CFQ-R (69). Many investigations on the real-world outcomes in people prescribed
elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor are also under way; topics of study include sinus disease, diabetes,
pregnancy, and the need for conventional therapies such as continued use of hypertonic saline
and dornase alfa (70–74). Most recent US registry data describe trends seen clinically across
many CF care centers (8). Over 80% of individuals were prescribed a modulator. Overall, people
with CF had a lower mortality rate, higher BMI, and higher ppFEV1 , and only 37% of the
volume of lung transplantations were performed in 2020 compared to 2019. In light of the
previously described experience with ivacaftor in people with highly responsive mutations, it is
tempting to speculate that dramatic long-term clinical benefits are likely to be observed with use
of elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor (75).
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
For the first time in history, according to US CF Foundation Patient Registry data, the median
predicted survival for an individual born with CF today is 50 years (8). Thus, what was once a
Annu. Rev. Med. 2023.74:413-426. Downloaded from www.annualreviews.org
disease of childhood will now require thoughtful management of complex disease in the setting of
an aging population. For example, consideration of cancer screening is now critical in a population
of patients who have, by the nature of their disease, been exposed to life-long immune function
dysregulation (76, 77). Additionally, while left-heart disease has been relatively rare in individuals
with CF to date, cardiac complications must now be considered and evaluated as people chronically
exposed to a high-fat diet for most of their lives begin to age (78). Finally, ∼30% of people with
CF have diabetes. To date, micro- and macrovascular complications have been rare, but their
incidence may increase with the increased longevity of people with CF (79, 80). On the other
hand, with the prospect of improved quality and quantity of life, the rate of pregnancies in women
with CF nearly doubled between 2019 and 2020, and an increasing number of CF individuals are
considering parenthood (8). Kazmerski and colleagues recently demonstrated that parenthood is
acutely associated with health decline in people with CF (81). Prospective studies designed to
assess potential areas of intervention for new parents with CF are needed.
Although the great strides we have made in the treatment of the majority of CF patients are
remarkable, our work is not yet done. First, based on CFTR mutation eligibility, the majority of
people with CF aged 6 years and older in the US are eligible for CFTR modulators, but BIPOC
individuals are overrepresented in the ∼10% of ineligible individuals, further contributing to
the many health inequities that exist for BIPOC individuals with CF (Figure 3) (15, 82). There
is variable response even to highly effective CFTR modulators, and some individuals cannot
tolerate their side effects (56, 59, 61). Additionally, infants and very young children who might
benefit the most from early initiation of highly effective CFTR modulators, with prevention
of disease complications, are not yet eligible for elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor. Those who
are not eligible, those with suboptimal response, and those who cannot tolerate therapies rely
on continued development of the mainstays of CF therapy: agents that improve mucociliary
clearance, decrease inflammation and infection, and improve nutritional status (83).
Highly effective modulator therapy has conferred marked improvements in lung function, nu-
trition, quality of life, and pulmonary exacerbations that have changed the lives of many people
with CF. However, modulator therapy is not a cure for CF. For this reason, and to improve sur-
vival and daily life in those not benefiting from CFTR modulators, investigators are evaluating the
potential of nucleic acid therapies (84). Since the discovery of the CFTR gene in 1989, a number
of attempts to deliver a normal copy of the gene have failed. Yet, with improving technology, the
CF community is hopeful that renewed approaches will enable a definitive cure for everyone with
CF.
