4 Objectives v Understand: D The genetic nature of cystic fibrosis (CF) D The pathophysiology of CF lung disease v Know how to diagnose CF v Learn the basic approach to treating CF lung disease

5 Cystic Fibrosis v Inherited disease D Autosomal recessive v Gene cloned in 1989: “CFTR” D Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conduction Regulator v 1601 mutations in CFTR known to cause CF v An extensive amount of information is known about CFTR Science, September 1989

6 Schematic Representation of CFTR Genetic Disorder Research Project Wiki Site

7 Pathophysiology of CF CFTR Dysfunction Disease manifestations D Lungs D Sinuses D Pancreas D Liver D Bones D Vas deferens ?

8 Airway Cross Sectional View Knowles & Boucher 2002;109:571 Epithelial cell layer Mucus layer Pericellular layer with cilia

10 Pathophysiology of CF Lung Disease Source Undetermined

11 Consequences of CFTR Deficiency on Airway Clearance Knowles & Boucher 2002;109:571

12 Pathophysiology of CF Lung Disease CF Gene Mutation Ion Transport Abnormalities Altered Airway Environment Inflammation Infection TissueDamage R. Simon

13 Pathophysiology of CF Lung Disease Bronchiectasis Death Chronic Respiratory Failure CF Gene Mutation Recurrent Bronchitis Source Undetermined R. Simons

14 Prevalence of Infections in CF Patients 0 20 40 60 80 100 0 to 1 2 to 5 6 to 10 11 to 17 18 to 24 25 to 34 35 to 44 45+ Age (years) Percent Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Patient Registry Data. 2005 P. aeruginosa S. aureus MRSA H. influenza S. maltophilia B. cepacia

15 Natural History of CF Lung Infections v Ps. aeruginosa or B. cepacia complex species persist in the lung v True infection, not “colonization” v Difficulty in eradicating infection: D Intrinsic antibiotic resistance D Acquired antibiotic resistance D Poor antibiotic penetration into secretions D Alginate produced by mucoid Ps. (biofilms) D CF-related defects in mucosal (but not systemic) defenses

16 Diagnostic criteria for cystic fibrosis Part 1: Clinical Manifestation of Disease v At least one of the following: 1) One or more clinical manifestations of CF ; Meconium ileus ; Chronic bronchitis / bronchiectasis ; Chronic infection of the paranasal sinuses ; Pancreatic insufficiency ; Salt loss syndromes ; Male infertility due to congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens 2) Positive newborn screening test 3) History of CF in a sibling

17 Diagnostic Criteria for Cystic Fibrosis Part 2: Laboratory evidence of CFTR abnormality v At least one of the following: 1)Elevated sweat chloride test 2)Identification of a mutation in each CFTR gene known to cause CF 3)In vivo demonstration of characteristic abnormalities in ion transport across nasal epithelium (not widely available)

18 Sweat Test for Diagnosis of CF 020406080100120140160180 mEq/L 0 300 600 900 1200 1500 1800 0 600 120 180 240 Number of normal controls Number of patients with CF Controls n=4269 CF n=920 Shwachman H, Mahmoodian A. Mod Prob Pediatr 1967;10:158

19 Use of Genotyping to Diagnose CF v 1601 CFTR mutations known to cause CF v Only 25 mutations have a frequency > 0.1% Frequency, % 010203040506070 R347P 3849+10kbC  T Δ I507 R117H R1162X 1717-1G  A R553X 621+1G  T W1282X N1303KG551DG542X ΔF508 CF Genetic Analysis Consortium Population Frequency of Specific CFTR Mutations Causing CF

20 Genotyping for CF Diagnosis v Current commercial screening tests D Look for presence of between 25 - 100 mutations D These will detect a CF allele only ~90% of time v For a group of patients with known CF, genotyping would be diagnostic in only ~81% of patients v  Screening for most common mutations is not as sensitive as sweat testing (98%) to diagnose classic CF

21 Genetic Diagnosis of CF v Tests becoming commercially available for detecting mutations more broadly D PCR used to amplify all exons and surrounding splice sites D Heteroduplex formation screening and/or sequencing D Analysis for large deletions and duplications D Cost ~ $2,500

22 Acute Exacerbations of CF Lung Disease v Symptoms D Increased cough with sputum production D Hemoptysis D Increased shortness of breath D Fever (not required) D Reduction in FEV1 D Worsening infiltrates on chest x-ray (not required)

23 Acute Exacerbations of CF Lung Disease v Antibiotic treatment D Oral antibiotics ; If symptoms are mild, and ; Bacteria are susceptible D Intravenous antibiotics otherwise

24 Management of Chronic Lung Disease in Cystic Fibrosis

25 Aerosolized Antibiotics v High dose tobramycin proven for chronic infection D TOBI ® 300 mg in 5 ml bid every other month Ramsey B, et al. NEJM 1999;340:23-30

26 Mucolytic Therapy for CF v DNase (Pulmozyme ® ) D Chronic use improves FEV1 and causes fewer exacerbations Fuchs HJ, et al. NEJM 1994;331:637-642

27 Bronchodilators in CF v No studies in acute exacerbations but routinely given v Chronic use -- FEV1 improves acutely in some patients   -adrenergic agonists (e.g. albuterol, salmeterol) D Anticholinergic agents (ipratroprium bromide, tiotroprium)

28 Anti-Inflammatory Treatment in CF v Glucocorticoids D Oral (prednisone) ; Preserves lung function, but too many adverse effects D Inhaled ; Used for subgroup of with bronchial hyperreactivity (asthma) symptoms v Ibuprofen D Beneficial for young patients D No evidence for improvement in adults

29 Macrolide Therapy for CF v Azithromycin in CF D Improved FEV1 D Fewer exacerbations of CF lung disease D Uncertain mechanism of action ; Anti-inflammatory? ; Bacterial toxin or biofilm production? 04122428 -4 -2 0 2 4 5 Study Week Azithromycin Placebo 1 -3 3 Change in FEV 1 (% predicted) 81620 Saiman L, et al.

30 Nebulized Hypertonic Saline (7%) Elkins MR et al. N Engl J Med 2006;354:229-240 v Effect on FEV1 D Randomized, double- blind, placebo controlled trial D N = 164 D Inhalation of 4 ml of 7% vs. 0.9% saline bid for 48 weeks

32 Physiotherapy for CF v No studies in acute exacerbations D But “standard of care” treatment v Beneficial for chronic management

33 Physiotherapy Options for CF Flutter Acapella PEP Vest

34 Supplemental Oxygen v Use same guidelines as COPD

35 Home Versus Hospital Therapy for Acute Exacerbation v Home regimen must duplicate full hospital program D IV drugs D Physiotherapy D Nutrition D Et cetera v Results from small studies showed mixed results

36 Assisted Ventilation in CF v Past studies show very poor outcomes v Non-invasive ventilation being used as a bridge to lung transplantation

37 Lung Transplantation CF v Bilateral lung transplantation v Outcome similar to non-CF transplantation v Problems D Long waiting lists D Many exclusions v Living donor transplants
