After British 15-year-old Isabelle, who has cystic fibrosis (CF), received a double lung transplant at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London, her non-tuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) infection returned and spread extensively throughout her body. As a last resort treatment her mother contacted researchers at the University of Pittsburgh in the USA about the possibility of Isabelle receiving an experimental ‘phage’ treatment to help kill off the infection and save her life. The researchers agreed to help, developing a cocktail of three phages that targeted the very specific strain of NTM causing the infection. After receiving the treatment, Isabelle’s condition improved dramatically. Here we explore the story behind the headlines.
We invest more money into cystic fibrosis research than any other UK organisation.
