With the approval of elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (trade name Trikafta), the vast majority of people with cystic fibrosis (CF) are eligible for CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapy. Remaining individuals have premature termination codons or rareCFTRvariants with limited treatment options. Although clinical modulator response can be reliably predicted using primary airway epithelial cells, primary cells carrying rareCFTRvariants are scarce. To overcome this obstacle, these cells can be expanded by overexpression of mouseBmi-1and humanTERT(hTERT). We therefore used this approach to develop two non-CF and three CF (F508del/F508del, F508del/S492F, W1282X/W1282X) nasal cell lines and two W1282X/W1282X bronchial cell lines. Bmi-1/hTERT cell lines recapitulated primary cell morphology and ion transport function. The F508del/F508del and F508del/S492F cell lines robustly responded to Trikafta, which was mirrored in the parent primary cells and the cell donors’ clinical response. CC-90009, a novel cereblon E3 ligase modulator targeting the GSPT1 protein, rescued ~20% of wildtype CFTR function in our panel of W1282X/W1282X cell lines and primary cells. Intriguingly, CC-90009 also diminished epithelial sodium channel function. These studies demonstrate that Bmi-1/hTERT cell lines faithfully mirror primary cell responses to CFTR modulators and illustrate novel therapeutic approaches for the W1282X CFTR variant. |
