Summary

An observational study of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) starting treatment with Kaftrio (Elexacaftor / Tezacaftor / Ivacaftor) as part of routine clinical care, following EMA licensing (approved end of Aug 2020).

* Patients with CF who are p.Phe508del homozygotes will already be receiving the less effective CFTR modulator drug Symkevi (Tezacaftor / Ivacaftor) and will switch to KaftrioTM.
* Patients who are who are compound heterozygotes with at least 1 copy of p.Phe508del currently have access to no effective CFTR modulator and will be starting a CFTR modulator (Kaftrio) for the first time.

Participants attend a study visit before Kaftrio treatment commences, followed by visits at 12 and 24 weeks after starting treatment. At each visit they will be scanned before and after standardised meals in the morning and mid-day (11 scans in total over 6 hours). No intravenous contrast or bowel preparation will be used. Participants will complete questionnaires on gastrointestinal symptoms as well as providing stool and sputum samples for assessment of microbiome and stool for inflammatory mediators and pancreatic function (elastase).

\*\*Following an extension, participants had a further visit at 76 weeks post starting Kaftrio, updated in detailed description\*\*
