In study VX18-561-101, participants treated with deutivacaftor 150 mg once daily (n=23) or deutivacaftor 250 mg once daily (n=24) had mean absolute changes in ppFEV1 of 3·1 percentage points (95% CI -0·8 to 7·0) and 2·7 percentage points (-1·0 to 6·5) from baseline at week 12, respectively, versus -0·8 percentage points (-6·2 to 4·7) with ivacaftor 150 mg every 12 h (n=11); the deutivacaftor safety profile was consistent with the established safety profile of ivacaftor 150 mg every 12 h. In study VX18-121-101, participants with F/MF genotypes treated with vanzacaftor (5 mg)-tezacaftor-deutivacaftor (n=9), vanzacaftor (10 mg)-tezacaftor-deutivacaftor (n=19), vanzacaftor (20 mg)-tezacaftor-deutivacaftor (n=20), and placebo (n=10) had mean changes relative to baseline at day 29 in ppFEV1 of 4·6 percentage points (-1·3 to 10·6), 14·2 percentage points (10·0 to 18·4), 9·8 percentage points (5·7 to 13·8), and 1·9 percentage points (-4·1 to 8·0), respectively, in sweat chloride concentration of -42·8 mmol/L (-51·7 to -34·0), -45·8 mmol/L (95% CI -51·9 to -39·7), -49·5 mmol/L (-55·9 to -43·1), and 2·3 mmol/L (-7·0 to 11·6), respectively, and in CFQ-R respiratory domain score of 17·6 points (3·5 to 31·6), 21·2 points (11·9 to 30·6), 29·8 points (21·0 to 38·7), and 3·3 points (-10·1 to 16·6), respectively. Participants with the F/F genotype treated with vanzacaftor (20 mg)-tezacaftor-deutivacaftor (n=18) and tezacaftor-ivacaftor (n=10) had mean changes relative to baseline (taking tezacaftor-ivacaftor) at day 29 in ppFEV1 of 15·9 percentage points (11·3 to 20·6) and -0·1 percentage points (-6·4 to 6·1), respectively, in sweat chloride concentration of -45·5 mmol/L (-49·7 to -41·3) and -2·6 mmol/L (-8·2 to 3·1), respectively, and in CFQ-R respiratory domain score of 19·4 points (95% CI 10·5 to 28·3) and -5·0 points (-16·9 to 7·0), respectively. The most common adverse events overall were cough, increased sputum, and headache. One participant in the vanzacaftor-tezacaftor-deutivacaftor group had a serious adverse event of infective pulmonary exacerbation and another participant had a serious rash event that led to treatment discontinuation. For most participants, adverse events were mild or moderate in severity. [1]

Cystic fibrosis results from mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) anion channel, ultimately leading to diminished transepithelial anion secretion and mucociliary clearance. CFTR correctors are therapeutics that restore the folding/trafficking of mutated CFTR to the plasma membrane. The large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channel (BKCa, KCa1.1) is also critical for maintaining lung airway surface liquid (ASL) volume. Here, we show that the class 2 (C2) CFTR corrector VX-445 (elexacaftor) induces K+ secretion across WT and F508del CFTR primary human bronchial epithelial cells (HBEs), which was entirely inhibited by the BKCa antagonist paxilline. Similar results were observed with VX-121, a corrector under clinical evaluation. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings verified that CFTR correctors potentiated BKCa activity from both primary HBEs and HEK cells stably expressing the α subunit (HEK-BK cells). Furthermore, excised patch-clamp recordings from HEK-BK cells verified direct action on the channel and demonstrated a significant increase in open probability. In mouse mesenteric artery, VX-445 induced a paxilline-sensitive vasorelaxation of preconstricted arteries. VX-445 also reduced firing frequency in primary rat hippocampal and cortical neurons. We raise the possibilities that C2 CFTR correctors gain additional clinical benefit by activation of BKCa in the lung yet may lead to adverse events through BKCa activation elsewhere.[2]

Vanzacaftor is a small molecule cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) corrector. It is used alongside other CFTR correctors and CFTR potentiators to increase the quantity and function of CFTR at the cell surface in patients with cystic fibrosis. Vanzacaftor was first approved by the US FDA in December 2024 in combination with another CFTR corrector - [tezacaftor], which binds to a different site than vanzacaftor - and [deutivacaftor], a CFTR potentiator, for the treatment of patients with responsive CFTR mutations. DrugBank VANZACAFTOR is a small molecule drug with a maximum clinical trial phase of IV (across all indications) that was first approved in 2024 and has 2 investigational indications.

This approval is based on the most comprehensive Phase 3 pivotal program ever conducted in CF, including more than 1,000 patients across more than 20 countries and more than 200 sites. These data were previously released at the conclusion of the studies and presented at the North American Cystic Fibrosis Conference in September of this year. The Phase 3 studies in people with CF ages 12 years and older met their primary endpoint (non-inferiority on absolute change from baseline in ppFEV1 compared to TRIKAFTA) and all key secondary endpoints (including absolute change from baseline in sweat chloride [SwCl] compared to TRIKAFTA). In the Phase 3 study of children with CF ages 6-11 years, ALYFTREK demonstrated safety, the primary endpoint. Secondary endpoints, such as absolute change from baseline in ppFEV1 and absolute change from baseline in SwCl, were presented, supporting the benefit of ALYFTREK in this age group. ALYFTREK was generally well tolerated across all studies. “In Phase 3 clinical trials, across a broad range of genotypes, once-daily ALYFTREK demonstrated non-inferiority to TRIKAFTA in ppFEV1 response and statistically significant improvement in SwCl, a welcomed advancement for the treatment of CF,” said Claire L. Keating, M.D., Co-Director of the Gunnar Esiason Adult Cystic Fibrosis and Lung Program at Columbia University and investigator in the ALYFTREK clinical trial program. “ALYFTREK has the potential to improve the care of patients with CF.” ALYFTREK is the first, once-daily CFTR modulator. In a recent survey, approximately 75% of physicians reported that more convenient dosing is a very high unmet need for people with CF. Specifically, people with CF will have the added benefit from a once-daily dosing regimen, given the need to take CFTR modulators with fat-containing food. ALYFTREK also offers a potentially transformative option for approximately 150 people with CF in the U.S. with one of 31 mutations who are now eligible for a CFTR modulator for the first time. ALYFTREK was also submitted to global health authorities and is under regulatory review in the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada, Switzerland, Australia and New Zealand.
