Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disease that results in severe sinus and pulmonary infections and is particularly difficult to treat; however, as George Solomon, MD, explains, researchers have recently made important steps in understanding and treating PCD. He explains the critical link they have established between genotype and phenotype of observed PCD cases, which will lead to genetic-based therapies in the future. Equally important, he says, are the strides made in treating symptoms PCD that can help patients right now: UAB is currently conducting clinical trials exploring treatments that help patients clear mucus from their lungs in order to limit damage throughout the body.

Although most cystic fibrosis (CF) patients respond to new drug combinations which activate the proteins commonly affected by the disease, around 15% of patients are still without a treatment option. George Solomon, MD, discusses how UAB's participation in the international “Path to a Cure” initiative will expand treatment options for all CF patients. He summarizes the three prongs of the path: developing a wider range of protein modulators, finding safe and ethical ways to administer genetic therapies, and ultimately finding a universal cure for CF. But what can we do now for CF patients with less common mutations?
