Study Summary

The purpose of this pilot study is to explore wither ivacaftor in refractory CRS patients will demonstrate safety and tolerability; restore CFTR-mediated Cl- secretions as measured by EDSPD testing; produce detectable improvements in validated measures of CRS including the SNOT-22 questionnaire, Lund-MacKay CT scan grading, and Lund-Kennedy endoscopic scores; and provide beneficial effects on readily measured markers of sinonasal inflammation and infection (IP-10, IL-8, and Pseudomonas CFUs).

Primary Outcome

Comparison of 22-tem Sino-Nasal Outcomes Test (SNOT-22) scores collected at Screening, Day 1, Day 14, and Day 30. The SNOT-22 is a 22-item questionnaire about rhinosinusitis symptoms and the social/emotional consequences for quality of life. The Likert scale ranges from 1-5, where 1 = "No Problem" and 5 = "Problem as bad as it can be." A total score is collected, ranging from 0-110; the higher the score, the worse the outcome.
