Impact of elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor on gastrointestinal outcomes, inflammation, exocrine pancreatic function and fat malabsorption: Report of PROMISE pediatric substudy
Key Points
Gastrointestinal outcomes improve with elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor treatment, particularly in fat malabsorption.
Key evidence shows fat malabsorption reduced by 30% in treated pediatric participants.
Assessment of gastrointestinal function included inflammation and pancreatic health, highlighting significant gains.
Findings support the need for comprehensive care in cystic fibrosis, aiming for better overall health in children.
