Popis: | BACKGROUND Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multisystem disorder that results in the buildup of mucus in various organs. Ninety percent of CF patients are classified as pancreatic insufficient, leading to malabsorption of nutrients and fat-soluble vitamins without the assistance of exogenous pancreatic enzymes. This study was designed to determine if serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations were impacted by initiation of elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ELX/TEZ/IVA). METHODS Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations were measured prior to and 1 year post-ELX/TEZ/IVA initiation. A Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare values. RESULTS Seventy-six patients were included in the final analysis. The average age of our population was 25.8 years (SD = 13.2 years) with a majority being male, homozygous F508del, pancreatic insufficient, and not modulator-naive. The median increase of serum vitamin D concentration after initiating ELX/TEZ/IVA was 5 ng/mL ((IQR) = -4, 13; p = 0.0035). CONCLUSIONS We suggest that ELX/TEZ/IVA may improve fat-soluble vitamin absorption, specifically serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D. These results may lead to adjustments in vitamin supplementation in patients receiving cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapy.
