Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess whether inhalation of 7% hypertonic saline (HS) twice daily for 48 weeks improves the lung clearance index by multiple breath nitrogen washout in comparison with inhalation of 0.9% isotonic saline (IS) in preschool children (ages 3 to 5) with cystic fibrosis.

Primary Outcome

Change in Lung Clearance Index (LCI) from baseline to 48 weeks measured by N2 Multiple Breath Washout (MBW) between subjects randomized to HS and IS.
