Exam 3 lecture 5 Flashcards
(100 cards)
What type of disease is cystic fibrosis
Autosomal recessive genetic disease (mother and father need to have mutation)
They have a 25% chance of having a kid with CF, 50% of being a carruier, 25% chance of neither
Average life expectancy of cyctic fibrosis
61 years (not just a pediatric disease)
What is CF caused by? Most common mutation?
Mutation in gene that encodes for CFTR protein
Most common is F508del
Compare normal cell in lung and CF lung
Normal- There is a nice equilibrium of chloride and sodium (water). Airway is think and cillia beat it easily
In CF mutation, CFTR channel is absent so chloride can not get into mucus so water can not get into it. Creates thick viscous liquid in lung, nice environment for bacteria to grow. Makes it difficult for cillia to beat out the mucus.
How is CF diagnosed
Blood spot obtained from infant called IRT (Immunoreactive trypsinogen)
Is positive IRT diagnostic for CF?
no, furtehr testing required for diagnosing
confirmative test for CF
Sweat chloride test
What value from sweat chloride test is diagnostic
> 60mEq/L is diagnostic
<30 is normal
31-59= intermediate
Describe different CFTR mutations
- normal
- Class I mutations- stop codon mutation, No CFTR modulators for this class. More severe symptoms
- Class 2- Most common mutation (del508). Protein gets made but is not made correctly. A few CFTR proteins get there but not a lot.
- Class 3- G551D is most common mutation. Protein gets made but gate is stuck shut. (gating mutation)
Class 4- R117H is most common. normal number of CFTR
Class V-reduced number of CFTR proteins reaches membrane
Name CFTR modulators
Kalydeco
orkambi
symdeko
Trikafta
Alyftrek
How does Kalydeco work? Age of patients?
CFTR potentiator
> 1 month of age
Counseling points of kalydeco
Take with fatty foods
Monitor LFT q3 months for 1 year then yearly.
Eye exam- baseline and yearly
Dose adjustment for hepatic impairement
CYP3A substrate (think about drug and food Grapefriit etc)
Approved for responsive mutations
Who is orkambi approved in?
Two copies of F508del (homozygous)
couseling for orkambi
Take with fatty food
AST/ALT/Bil q3 mo for 1 year and then years
Eye exam at baseline and then yearly
Dose adjusts in hepatic impairement
Side effects of chest tightness and SOB with initiation
Big difference between orkambi and kalydeco
Orkambi is a strong CYP3A4 inducer
Also interaction of hormonal forms of birthcontrol (drug interaction of orkambi)
1 year of age started with orkambi

Approved for two del508 or reposnsive mutation
age>6 years
Monitoring with symdeko
Take with fatty foods
AST/ALT/Bil Q3 months for 1 year then yearly
Eye exam baseline and yearly
Dose adjustment for liver disease
No birthcontrol side effect or chest tightness
CYP3A4 substrate
Trikafta approved for? Age?
Anyone with atleast 1 d508
Age> or =2
Counseling with Trikafta
Take with fatty food

Dosing pearl of trikafta
If miss orange tablet dose by more than 6 hrs tae orange tabs and skip evening blue tab
Alyftrek approved for?
F508del or another reposnive mutation (taken once a day)
Counseling with alyftrek
Take with fatty foods
AST/ALT/Bil/Alk Phos q month for 6 months and then q3 months for 12 additional months and then yearly
Eye exam baseline and yearly
Mortality of CF lung disease? What is it caused by?
Cause of 85% of CF deaths
Due to CFTR dysfunction CF patients have thickened mucus, hard to clear, good envt for bacteria
What is recommended for pts with CF
Airway clearence
