Full description

Introduction of KALYDECO then ORKAMBI, as a personalized medicine in the therapeutic strategy of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) may deeply modify the prognosis of patients with CF. These approaches realize the dream of short-circuiting the molecular mechanism of the disease and therefore opens the perspective of an extended and functional survival. It suddenly offers the possibility of a completely new future to the patient and his family, and therefore must deeply impact on the psychological function of all involved. Moreover, those new therapies may also modify the adherence to CF basic treatment, as it brings a new feeling of good health and the hope of a longer life. For that reason there is a need to investigate modifications of the psychological state of mind induced by the treatment with ORKAMBI in CF adolescents and young adults.
