clinical trial

Question
Hello

Is there any clinical trial regarding patients with mutation G542X/Delta F508 ?
Thank you
Answer
Hello

Today, there is no clinical trials specific for patient with the mutations G542X/Delta F508.
However, a trial regarding patient with at least one non-sense mutation (like G542X, class I) will start soon in France to assess the efficacy of a molecule named Ataluren (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02139306?term=ACT+CF&rank=1). Ataluren could correct the mutation and lead to the generation of a normal CFTR protein.
Other studies, planned by Vertex Company, for patients heterozygous for the mutation F508del, are coming.
