An 8 week open-label interventional multicenter study to explore the lung clearance index as endpoint for clinical trials in cystic fibrosis patients ≥8 years of age, chronically infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa

BACKGROUND: Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV(1)) is the only parameter currently recognized as a surrogate endpoint in cystic fibrosis (CF) trials. However, FEV(1) is relatively insensitive to changes in the small airways of patients with milder lung disease. This pilot study aimed to explo...
