Elexacaftor is a corrector of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) bearing the F508 deletion (F508del) mutation, which is carried by 90% of cystic fibrosis patients, and a CFTR potentiator.1,2 It increases CFTR levels in bronchial epithelial cells isolated from patients with F508del-CFTR mutations when used at a concentration of 2 µM.1 Elexacaftor potentiates the transepithelial current in primary human nasal epithelial cells (EC50 = 1.5 nM).2 Formulations containing elexacaftor in combination with ivacaftor and tezacaftor have been used in the treatment of cystic fibrosis in patients carrying one or more mutations in the CFTR gene.
