Scientific titleLongitudinal assessment of clinical measurements in patients with cystic fibrosis in preparation for a clinical trial of CFTR gene therapy
Study acronymRun-in study
Study hypothesisThe UK Cystic Fibrosis Gene Therapy Consortium (Imperial College, University of Edinburgh and Oxford) is working towards a clinical trial of CFTR gene therapy. The aim of this trial is to allow us to assess, for the first time, whether introducing normal copies of the CF gene can lead to clinical improvements. This aim of this trial imposes certain requirements on trial design:
1. The treatment will have to be given repeatedly over a period of time of sufficient length to allow clinical parameters to change
2. The clinical parameters used to assess response must be robust (repeatable, reproducible and sensitive to change)

The study registered here is the first part of this programme and does not involve administering any gene therapy agent to patients. It is to allow us to gain insight into the natural history of the assays we have designed for the future trial, to choose those assays and patients most likely to allow us to assess change sensitively and to provide pre-trial longitudinal data on the trial patients.

ConditionTopic: Respiratory, Generic Health Relevance and Cross Cutting Themes; Subtopic: Respiratory (all Subtopics), Generic Health Relevance (all Subtopics); Disease: Respiratory, Paediatrics
Intervention200 CF patients aged 10 years and above will be recruited. All London patients will be recruited from the Royal Brompton Hospital adult and paediatric clinics. Adult patients in Scotland will be studied at the Western General Hospital, whilst the paediatric patients will be studied at the Royal Hospital for Sick Children. Scottish patients will be recruited from any Health Board in Scotland.

Over a period of approximately 2-3 years the patients will undergo five sets of measurements.
