This Phase 3 study looks at how well and how safely Vanzacaftor/Tezacaftor/Deutivacaftor works over the long term in people with cystic fibrosis who already took the study medicine before. It may help confirm the best long-term plan and spot important safety issues.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 1 year+ - NCT06587126Recruiting
Can a Cough Monitor Work in Children?
This study tests a way to monitor coughing in children at home, including children with cystic fibrosis and healthy children. It will help researchers learn how well a cough monitor works in real life.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 1–18 - NCT04294043RecruitingPhase 1
Gallium IV study for adults with cystic fibrosis and NTM lung infection
This Phase 1 study tests whether an IV medicine called gallium can treat hard-to-treat lung infections (NTM) in adults with cystic fibrosis. It is mainly for people who have not been treated yet for NTM or who have NTM that has not cleared despite antibiotics.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06504589Recruiting
Study for CF treatments for people without modulators
This study tests new treatments for cystic fibrosis in people who cannot take or choose not to take current CFTR modulators. It aims to find better options for managing CF.
Denver, ColoradoAges 12 years+ - NCT04509050Recruiting
Testing a highly effective CF medicine in young children
This study looks at how well a highly effective cystic fibrosis (CF) medicine works in infants and young children, and what biological changes it causes. It may help families understand whether the medicine improves CF function and related measures early in life.
Aurora, ColoradoAges Up to 10 years - NCT06654752Recruiting
Simpler treatment for lung flare-ups in kids with CF
This study tests a streamlined approach to managing sudden lung symptoms (pulmonary exacerbations) in children with cystic fibrosis. It aims to see if a simpler treatment plan works as well as standard care, which could mean less time in the hospital and fewer disruptions to daily life.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 3–18 - NCT06683092Recruiting
Restarting triple therapy with close monitoring for side effects
This trial tests whether carefully restarting a triple-combination CFTR modulator (VTD) is safe and helpful for people with cystic fibrosis who had to stop or change Trikafta because of mental health side effects or liver injury. You will be closely monitored with surveys and daily diaries to ensure your safety.
Denver, ColoradoAges 6 years+ - NCT06998043RecruitingPhase 2
Phage therapy for cystic fibrosis with pseudomonas lung infection
This trial tests a new treatment using phages (viruses that kill bacteria) for people with cystic fibrosis who have a chronic pseudomonas lung infection. It aims to see if adding phages to your usual care can help control the infection.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07071324Recruiting
CF Wellness Program for Fatigue
This wellness program tests if coaching sessions can help people with cystic fibrosis who feel tired. It is a remote program you can join using your phone or computer, as long as you get CF care at a participating center.

Denver, ColoradoAges 6 years+ - NCT05686837Enrolling by invitation
Study of how lung bacteria spreads in people with cystic fibrosis
This trial follows people with cystic fibrosis to better understand how “nontuberculous mycobacteria” (a type of lung germ) spreads between healthcare visits and care settings. It may help improve future prevention and monitoring strategies for CF patients who have had these bacteria.
Denver, ColoradoAges 1 month–99 years - NCT04579211Enrolling by invitation
Urine testing to skip repeated NTM sputum checks in cystic fibrosis
This study looks at whether a urine test (instead of repeated sputum—mucus—from the lungs testing) can help determine who with cystic fibrosis does not have certain lung germs called NTM. If the urine test works, it could reduce the need for lung sample testing while still keeping people safe.

What taking part in a cystic fibrosis study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
