Tupayachi Ortiz MG, Baumlin N, Yoshida M, Salathe M. Response to Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor in people with cystic fibrosis with the N1303K mutation: Case report and review of the literature. Heliyon 2024; 10:e26955. [PMID: 38463894 PMCID: PMC10920363 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e26955] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by a mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. Thousands of CFTR mutations have been identified, but only a fraction are known to cause CF, with the most common being the prototypical class II CFTR mutation F508del. Elexacaftor-Tezacaftor-Ivacaftor (ETI) is a CFTR modulator that significantly increases ppFEV1 and reduces exacerbation frequencies. It is indicated for people with CF (pwCF) 2 years or older with at least one copy of F508del or one copy of the other 177 CFTR mutations that are responsive to ETI based on clinical or in vitro data. N1303K is the second most common class II mutation in the U.S. but is not yet FDA-approved for CFTR modulator therapy. However, N1303K is very similar to the F508del mutation and reveals variable in vitro responses to ETI. Theratyping provides an opportunity to consider ETI therapy for pwCF with mutations currently not approved by the FDA. We describe the case of an adult CF patient with W1282X and N1303K CFTR mutations and advanced CF lung disease (ACFLD) and declining lung function in which ETI was started after theratyping of nasal cells showed a meaningful response to ETI (current enhanced to over 10% of WT CFTR). The patient experienced clinical improvement with a 5% improvement in ppFEV1 and 10% increase in weight. However, there was no change in sweat chloride and the increase in ppFEV1 was less than what has been described for ACFLD patients with more typical ETI-amenable mutations. However, the response was in line with a few other cases described in the literature. This suggests a partial functional CFTR rescue like first-generation modulators for F508del. Thus, pwCF with N1303K CFTR variant could be considered for ETI eligibility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Around 20% of people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) do not have access to the triple combination elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) in Europe because they do not carry the F508del allele on the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Considering that pwCF carrying rare variants may benefit from ETI, including variants already validated by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), a compassionate use programme was launched in France. PwCF were invited to undergo a nasal brushing to investigate whether the pharmacological rescue of CFTR activity by ETI in human nasal epithelial cell (HNEC) cultures was predictive of the clinical response. METHODS CFTR activity correction was studied by short-circuit current in HNEC cultures at basal state (dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)) and after ETI incubation and expressed as percentage of normal (wild-type (WT)) CFTR activity after sequential addition of forskolin and Inh-172 (ΔI ETI/DMSO%WT). RESULTS 11 pwCF carried variants eligible for ETI according to the FDA label and 28 carried variants not listed by the FDA. ETI significantly increased CFTR activity of FDA-approved CFTR variants (I601F, G85E, S492F, M1101K, R347P, R74W;V201M;D1270N and H1085R). We point out ETI correction of non-FDA-approved variants, including N1303K, R334W, R1066C, Q552P and terminal splicing variants (4374+1G>A and 4096-3C>G). ΔI ETI/DMSO%WT was significantly correlated to change in percentage predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s and sweat chloride concentration (p<0.0001 for both). G85E, R74W;V201M;D1270N, Q552P and M1101K were rescued more efficiently by other CFTR modulator combinations than ETI. CONCLUSIONS Primary nasal epithelial cells hold promise for expanding the prescription of CFTR modulators in pwCF carrying rare mutants. Additional variants should be discussed for ETI indication.

Ensinck MM, De Keersmaecker L, Ramalho AS, Cuyx S, Van Biervliet S, Dupont L, Christ F, Debyser Z, Vermeulen F, Carlon MS. Novel CFTR modulator combinations maximise rescue of G85E and N1303K in rectal organoids. ERJ Open Res 2022; 8:00716-2021. [PMID: 35449760 PMCID: PMC9016267 DOI: 10.1183/23120541.00716-2021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2021] [Accepted: 01/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a severe monogenic disorder caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Several types of CFTR modulators (correctors/potentiators) have been developed to overcome protein dysfunction associated with these mutations. CFTR modulator therapy is now available for the major CF-causing mutations; however, 10% of people with CF remain without causal treatments. By combining investigational and market-approved CFTR modulators, we aimed to maximise functional rescue of iva-, luma- and tezacaftor refractory mutants G85E and N1303K. Methods We used the well-established forskolin-induced swelling (FIS) in primary rectal organoids to assess responses to different CFTR corrector and potentiator types. The FIS analysis was performed with brightfield microscopy, allowing both 1-h and 24-h follow-up. Corrector and potentiator activity of elexacaftor was investigated. Results For G85E, maximal rescue was observed by a combination of elexacaftor and corr4a. For N1303K, the quadruple combination teza-elexa-ivacaftor with apigenin was required to obtain a rescue similar to that of luma-ivacaftor rescued F508del. Elexacaftor rescued G85E and N1303K by different mechanisms, with chronic corrector effects on G85E and acute potentiation of N1303K only in the presence of ivacaftor. Synergy in N1303K rescue for iva-elexacaftor and apigenin suggests at least three potentiator mechanisms for this mutant. 24-h FIS identified ivacaftor as the main CFTR modulator for N1303K and elexacaftor and apigenin as co-potentiators. Conclusions Novel combinations of CFTR modulators can further improve functional rescue of G85E and N1303K in rectal organoids, although for N1303K, more effective CFTR modulators are still needed.
