The purpose of this study is to explore the use of off-label CFTR modulators that may affect
CFTR function in patients with CFTR mutations that are not currently approved for these
drugs.

The purpose of this study is to explore the use of off-label CFTR modulators that may affect
CFTR function in patients with CFTR mutations that are not currently approved for these
drugs. Symdeko (Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor), Orkambi (Ivacaftor and Lumacaftor), correctors of CFTR
misfolding and Kalydeco (Ivacaftor), a potentiator of abnormal CFTR gating, will be explored
as a treatment for patients with other CF mutations than those currently approved. Patients
who have a mutation that responds to a CFTR corrector from in vitro study will be given
Symdeko, or Orkambi, depending on the in vitro response pattern. Patients who have mutation
response to a potentiator of CFTR function will be given Ivacaftor monotherapy. Patients with
a mutation equivalent to wild type will be given Ivacaftor. If the patient is 6-12 years old,
we will only study Orkambi or ivacaftor as symdeko is not yet FDA approved in this patient
population.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Diagnosis of CF

- Age ≥6 y.o.

- CFTR mutation that may respond to approved correctors/potentiators in the opinion of
the study investigators

- Informed Consent/Assent

- Stable CF pulmonary regimen

Exclusion Criteria:

- Exacerbation requiring antibiotic or steroids for >28 days before trial entry

- Ongoing participation in a CFTR modulator study

- Active smoking in the past 6 months

- History of solid organ transplant

- Any condition which precludes the use of CFTR modulators: e.g. advanced cirrhosis,
End-stage Renal Disease (ESRD)

- Any condition that precludes the patient from participation in the opinion of the
investigator

- Any meds that have significant drug-drug interactions or any other off label use of
CFTR modulators
