Clinical Trial Summary

RECOVER is a prospective, multicenter observational study designed to measure the real world clinical effectiveness of elexacaftor, tezacaftor and ivacaftor triple combination therapy (Kaftrio) in people with cystic fibrosis over a two year period. Measured outcomes include measures of lung function, lung inflammation, lung imaging, abdominal symptoms, gut inflammation, liver function, pancreatic exocrine function, nasal inflammation, quality of life and adherence to therapy. The study will examine outcomes in children aged six years and above over a period of two years. The first phase of the study will commence in 2020, recruiting children 12 years and older who have started on clinical treatment with Kaftrio.


Clinical Trial Description

Our aim with RECOVER is to examine the clinical impact of Kaftrio on key clinical outcomes in people with CF in a real-world setting. For this study, in addition to some of the more traditional ways of monitoring clinical outcomes in people with CF such a standard lung function, nutrition, exacerbations and liver disease, we are proposing to include some novel outcome measures not typically used in clinical trials such as lung clearance index (LCI) and spirometry controlled chest CT. By implementing an extensive study protocol that will include important outcomes in a number of areas of health in people with CF, and matching this to a comprehensive biosample collection plan, we will have the power to gain important insight into how Kaftrio works, and what impact it has on rescue of CFTR function in this group of people. Data on the following outcomes will be collected during the study: Lung Clearance Index Ultra-low dose, spirometry-controlled CT scanning Sweat Chloride Nasal Lavage (inflammatory markers and microbiome) Fraction of Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO) Liver Ultrasound Liver examination (signs of liver disease) Sputum Collection (inflammatory markers and microbiome) Stool Collection (inflammation, microbiome, fecal elastase) Abdominal symptom questionnaire CFQ-R (quality of life) Adherence to treatment Height, weight, BMI Forced Expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) Microbiological culture of airway specimens (clinical laboratories at sites) The Lead Investigator is Paul McNally, with Prof. Jane Davies as Co-Lead Investigator. The study will operate in collaboration with our academic and clinical partners and the CF registries in Ireland and the UK. The study is supported by the European CF Society Clinical Trials Network (ECFS-CTN). The study is being run as a CTIMP in the UK clinical sites, as determined by the MHRA. In the Irish sites, the HPRA has determined this study to be an observational research study. ;
