Kidney effects of triple CFTR modulator therapy in people with cystic fibrosis

Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) is a new cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator that has transformed the respiratory prognosis of people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). However, its impact on other organs such as the kidneys, where CFTR is expressed, remains unclear. Since pwCF are risk of both kidney disease and urolithiasis, we aimed to study the potential effects of ETI on renal function, volume status, and risk factors for urolithiasis.
