The Clinic for Children’s Diseases described this as a significant step forward in the treatment of cystic fibrosis in the country. “Trikafta” works by improving the function of the CFTR protein, defects in which cause cystic fibrosis.

According to clinical trials, this therapy can significantly improve lung function and quality of life in patients with the appropriate genetic characteristics.
