Trial refresh: A case for an adaptive platform trial for pulmonary exacerbations of cystic fibrosis

This review will discuss the necessary steps required for a Bayesian adaptive platform trial to optimize treatment of pulmonary exacerbations of cystic fibrosis

Human Primary Epithelial Cell Models: Promising Tools in the Era of Cystic Fibrosis Personalized Medicine

In this Review, we consolidate the latest updates in the development of primary epithelial cellular model systems relevant for cystic fibrosis

Interleukin-1 is associated with inflammation and structural lung disease in young children with cystic fibrosis

Our data associates IL-1α with early structural lung damage in CF and suggests this pathway as a novel anti-inflammatory target

Use of a primary epithelial cell screening tool to investigate phage therapy in cystic fibrosis

This study demonstrates the feasibility of utilizing pre-clinical in vitro culture models to screen therapeutic candidates

CrossTalk opposing view: Mucosal acidification does not drive early progressive lung disease in cystic fibrosis

Whether airway mucosal acidification drives early progressive lung disease is controversial

The association between Staphylococcus aureus and subsequent bronchiectasis in children with cystic fibrosis

De novo S. aureus acquisition at age 3 is associated with later bronchiectasis and FEF25-75 in children with CF

Effect of posture on lung ventilation distribution and associations with structure in children with cystic fibrosis

Background: We assessed the effect of posture on ventilation distribution and the impact on associations with structural lung disease.

Air trapping in early cystic fibrosis lung disease-Does CT tell the full story?

Mosaic attenuation on expiratory chest computed tomography (CT) is common in early life cystic fibrosis (CF) and often referred to as "air trapping"

Multiple-breath washout outcomes are sensitive to inflammation and infection in children with cystic fibrosis

The lung clearance index may be a useful surveillance tool for monitoring the presence and extent of lower airway inflammation and infection

The AREST CF experience in biobanking - More than just tissues, tubes and time.

Research to further improve outcomes for people with CF is dependent upon well characterised, archived and accessible clinical specimens.
