This study looks at sinus problems in young children with cystic fibrosis. One group of children starts a new medicine called a highly effective modulator (like Trikafta), and the other group does not take this medicine. The goal is to see how the medicine affects sinus health over time.
This study looks at how a drug called ETI (a combination of three medicines) affects the quality of life and gut health of children with cystic fibrosis. If you or your child has the right type of CF and is between 2 and 18 years old, this trial may help us understand how treatment improves daily life and digestion.

This study looks at how a child’s early lung function, viral infections, and gut (microbiome) changes affect cystic fibrosis over time. It may help doctors understand what predicts how lung disease develops, which could improve future care.
