Week 3: Cystic Fibrosis/ Drug Induced Pulmonary Disease Flashcards
Root Cause of CF
defect in cystic fibrosis transmembrane (CFTR)conductance regulator. Transports Cl- and bicarbonate.
organs typically involved in cf
skin
pancreas lung
Epidemiology
most common lethal genetically inherited disease affecting caucasions
outcome of cf dependent on ..
disease/genotype
pt mangement
compliance w. therapies
CFTR mutation classes and order of Prevalence
Class I mutation: nucleus
Class II mutation: Golgi apparatus
both effect synthesis of CTFR mutation, and cannot reach epithelial surface
Class III, IV, V, : dysfunctional CFTR proteins. little to no Cl can be transfered outside of cell
Class II»>Class I>Class III~Class IV>Class V
Classes IV and V cause milder disease because of little transport
classes I-III have no cloride transport
Most common mutation of CFTR
F508del
can either be homozygous or heterozygous
homozygous F508del=44.2%
heterozygous F08del= 40.5%
CF patho
mutated CFTR gene
loss of CFTR function
Impaird Bacterial Eradication
Infection
Inflammation
Airway Remodeling
Airway Obstruction
Broncheiectasis
Most common pathogen affecting young children and adulthhod
children: staph. Aureus
1.s.aureus
2.H. influenzae
3.ps aeruginosa
adults: psudamonas aeruginosa
1.p. aeuginosa
2.s. aureus
3. MRSA
chronic infection in CF triggers inflammation involving what mediators
tnf-a
IL-
GM-CSF
Leukotrienes
Neutrophils etc.
further worsens obstruction and creates better environment for infection
Exocrine dysfunction due to CF
occurs in 85-90% of CF pts.
results in obstruction and consequently deficient in ..
Protease, amylase, lipase
bicarbonate
causes poor absoprtion of…
*fat soluble vitamins (ADEK),vit. b12, zinc
Long term xocrine dysfunction: Acinar celldestruction->fibrosis->progressive adipose replacement of pancreatic tissue
SS of poor digestoin and complications
abdominal distention,increased stool frequency w.loose consistency/foul odor
increased fecal fat content
endocrine dysfunction: CF related diabetes (5-30% prevelance)
complication:mal nutrition and poor weightgain (predictor of mortality)
CF comorbidities
depression
anxiety
manifestations: asthma, acid reflux, CF related diabetes, sinus disease

DDIs of CFTR modulators
Ivacaftor, Tezacaftor, Elexacaftor
mechanism of DDI:
EX:
Affect on AUC and CMAX:
dose adjustment :
I, Tz, El: cyp3a4 substrates
mechanism of DDI: moderate cyp3a4 inhibitors EX: erythromycin and fluconazole
Affect onAUC and CMAX: increase
dose adjustment :
*I once daily,
* Tz, El: qod alternating btw T+I( or E/T/I) and I

cotreatment w. cyp3a4 inhibitors (ex itraconazole),
if L/I added to a regimen w. storng inhibitor..
decrease lumacaftor/ivacaftor dose to 1 tab daily during first week, then rsume normal dose therafter
if string inhibitor added to L/I regimen.. no dose adjustment needed
