Longer-term data in ages ≥12 continued to show durable benefits: 100% VF12 (45/45) in SCD and 98.2% TI12 (55/56) in TDT with multi-year mean durations.

Vertex (NASDAQ: VRTX) presented multiple abstracts at the North American Cystic Fibrosis Conference (October 22–25, 2025, Seattle) showing clinical benefits from CFTR modulators, including newly approved ALYFTREK (vanzacaftor/tezacaftor/deutivacaftor).
Key findings: Phase 3 data (SKYLINE 102/103) show ALYFTREK produced greater reductions in sweat chloride versus TRIKAFTA and lower rates of pulmonary exacerbations and IV antibiotic use in F508del/minimal function genotypes. Pooled analyses (>2,000 participants) link achieving SwCl thresholds (<60 mmol/L and <30 mmol/L) to reduced annual antibiotic use. Younger treatment (ages 6–11) showed larger CFTR function gains and broader clinical benefits.
