Our CSO Martin Gosling was recently interviewed by Labiotech for an article discussing how new treatments for #cysticfibrosis (CF) are boosting life expectancy. Just three decades ago, the average life expectancy of people with CF was around 30 years of age. This has now improved to 50, with some patients living into their 80s. Recent advancements in CF research have played a key role in contributing to this. One section of the article discusses how Enterprise Therapeutic’s EDT001 has the potential to meet the needs of people with CF. In preclinical studies, ETD001 boosted the clearance of mucus for longer than 12 hours after a single dose, and Phase 1 studies showed a pharmacokinetic profile consistent with long lung retention. Phase 2 trials are due to begin this month. ETD001 has the potential to treat people with cystic fibrosis not currently eligible or receiving benefit from CFTR modulators, and further improve lung function when administered in combination with CFTR modulators.

Great work and best of luck with this. Interesting approach and important work. I have a keen personal interest - an inspiring friend of mine at university had CF, qualified in medicine but sadly didn't make 30.
