  1. New treatments for CF Peter D. Sly MBBS, MD, FRACP, DSc

  2. Early intervention in CF • What are we trying to achieve? • Who should be treated? • What are the treatment options? • What is the evidence that early intervention works?

  3. Early intervention in CF • What are we trying to achieve? • CF lung disease begins early and is progressive Sly et al NEJM 2013

  4. Persistence of Bronchiectasis 301 paired scans 1y apart from 143 children (0.2-6.5y). Bx persistent in 73% and extent increased in 63% Progression in 63% Mott Thorax 2012

  5. Gas trapping on CT • What does Gas trapping mean? • Uneven emptying of lung units • Is it associated with disease? • Increases risk of bronchiectasis [Sly NEJM 2013] • Weak association with M2/MO but not LCI [Hall PLoS ONE 2011;6:e23932] • Can it be treated? • No data in infants

  6. Who should be treated? Absence of symptoms does not mean absence of disease

  7. What are the treatment options? • Treatment options depend on disease mechanisms • Inflammation: anti-inflammatories • Infection: antibiotic prophylaxis • Thicker mucus: mucolytics • Dehydrated ELF: HS, eNaC blockers • Impaired mucociliary clearance: HS, DNAse • Impaired anti-oxidant defence: anti-oxidants; GSH • Gene defect: gene therapy, CFTR correctors, potentiators

  8. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatories • Cochrane Review (Lands & Stanojevic 2013, Issue 6) • 5 trials (3 IBP), 334 subjects 5-39y, max 4y FU • Data in children: • Konstan 1991: 13 IBP, 5 placebo; 300/400/600mg BD • Konstan 1995: 42 IBP, 43 placebo; 20-30mg/kg • Lands 2007: 142 (6-18y); 20-30 mg/kg • Outcomes • Reduced decline in lung function (combined analyses) • FEV1% mean dif 1.16 [0.07-2.25] – NS >13y • FVC% 1.27 [0.26-2.28] – NS >13y • FEF25-75% 1.72 [0.10-3.34] – NS >13y

  9. Prophylactic anti-staph antibiotics • Cochrane review [Smyth & Walters 2012, Issue 12] • 4 studies, 401 children 0-7y randomized • Fewer children with ≥1 isolation of Staph • But: • Complete eradication not achieved in most • No difference in: • Isolation of other microbes • Lung function (infant or spirometry) • Nutrition (weight or height) • Hospitalization, days in hospital, other antibiotics • CXR score

  10. Dornasealfa • Major results form studies in adults: • Improved lung function/ decreased rate of decline • Decreased exacerbations • Improved QOL • Pulmozyme Early Intervention Trial (PEIT)

  11. FEV1 % predicted Quan J Pediatr 2001; Robinson PediatrPulmonol 2002

  12. Dornasealfa • Impact on ventilation inhomogeneity and gas trapping • 17 children (6-18y, mean 10.32y), FEV1≥80% • 4w cross-over, placebo-controlled • Dornasealfa: • Improved LCI 0.90±1.44; p=0.022, FEF25-75 6.1%±10.34% [Amin, ERJ 2011;37:806-812] • 25 children (6-18y), FVC ≥85%, FEV1≥70% • 12m placebo-controlled RCT • Improved gas trapping: • 3m 13% v 48%, p=0.023; 12m 15% v 61%, p=0.053 [Robinson Chest 2005;128:2327-35]

  13. Hypertonic saline • Major results from adult studies • Improved lung function / decreased rate of decline • Reduced acute exacerbations / improved QOL • Increased mucociliary clearance • Inhaled HS in infants and children <6y (ISIS)

  14. Hypertonic saline No reduction in exacerbations; 40% of subjects on dornasealfa Rosenfeld JAMA 2012;307:2269-77

  15. Hypertonic saline • Impact on ventilation inhomogeneity • 20 children (6-18y, mean 10.5); FEV1 96±12% • Cross-over; 4 week treatment (HS/P), 4w wash-out • Decreased LCI; 1.16±0.94 (0.27-2.05), p=0.016 • No change in spirometry, QOL [Amin Thorax 2010;65:379-83]

  16. Hypertonic saline • Impact on mucociliary clearance • 12 children (8.9-12.4y), FEV1108%, single dose 7% HS • MC by radio-aerosol clearance • Improved MC in some, esp if low at baseline Laube BMC Pulm Med 2011;11:45

  17. Dornasealfa v hypertonic saline • 14 children, mean age 13.3y, FEV1 75.6% • 3 w treatment (D 2.56mg/HS 5.85%), 3w WO • FEV1 HS 7.7% (14%) v D 9.3% (11.7%), p<0.05 Ballmann JCF 2002

  18. Azitromycin AZM: ↑ lung function, QOL, wt gain , ↓ exacerbations

  19. Azitromycin • Potential mechanisms • ↓ neutrophilic inflammation • ↑ anti-oxidant defences • ↓ viral LRI • Prevent “pro-inflammatory” microbiome

  20. Azitromycin • ↓ neutrophilic inflammation • Most evidence from erythromycin in DPB • ↓ pro-inflammatory cytokines • BEC, neutrophils, monocytes • ↓neutrophil accumulation • Inhibit ICAM-1, ↓ IL-8, ↓ migration • ? ↓ neutrophil activation • ↓ NE [KanohClin Micro Rev 2010; Frielander Chest 2010]

  21. Azitromycin • ↑ anti-oxidant defence • ↓ neutrophilic inflammation → MPO → ↓ OS • AZM prevents OS-induced upregulation of GSTs • Catalyses oxidation of GSH to detoxify oxidants • Further ↓ available GSH [Bergamini AJRCMB 2009]

  22. Azitromycin • ↓ viral LRI • AZM → ↓ exacerbations in RCTs • AZM → ↑ HRV-induced IFN, ↓ HRV replication in AEC • ? ↓ spread of virus from URT to LRT [Gielen ERJ 2010; Zaheer AJRCMB 2010]

  23. Gene potentiators/correctors Kreindler. Pharmacology &amp; Therapeutics Volume 125, Issue 2 2010 219 - 229

  24. Ivacaftor • Potentiates opening of CFTR channel with G551D • “normalizes” sweat chloride • improves lung function • Improves nutrition • Case study: 7y girl G551D/G551D

  25. 5m pre ivacaftor 7 months of ivacaftor pre ivacaftor 11 months of ivacaftor

  26. New options in clinical trial • Lumacaftor • Gene corrector – “escorts” CFTR to cell surface (F508) • Ataluren • Allows read through premature stop codon • Neutrophil elastase inhibitors • ONO-6818; AZD9668

  27. Early intervention in CF • Summary • Lung disease begins early in CF • Lack of symptoms does not mean no disease • Treatment must start early to prevent disease • Lack of RCTs in infants to guide treatment
