Proteomic Profiling to Identify Blood Biomarkers Predictive of Response to Azithromycin in Children and Adolescents with Cystic Fibrosis.

CONCLUSIONS: Early change in blood protein biomarkers following azithromycin treatment are associated with short but not longer-term changes in lung function. Early change in serum calprotectin is predictive of response to azithromycin in terms of modifying PEx risk. PMID: 31201785 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
