RESUMO

Introduction: Cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) modulator therapies improve respiratory function and glycaemic control in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). The direct effect of CFTR modulator therapies on pancreatic function in patients without preexisting diabetes remains unclear. Case Presentation. An 18-year-old female with CF caused by F508del/F508del mutation, who had no diabetes, developed postprandial hypoglycaemias 6 months after initiation of elexacaftor, tezacaftor, and ivacaftor combination therapy (ETI). Symptoms were persisted after brief discontinuation of ETI, but her symptoms and time-in-hypoglycaemia had improved remarkably by avoiding high glycaemic index-foods. Discussion. This case of hypoglycaemia associated with CFTR modulator therapy in a patient without preexisting diabetes suggests that CFTR modulator therapy has the potential to directly affect glucose homeostasis. There might be an improvement in insulin secretion as well as a reduction in systemic insulin resistance. Conclusion: Treatment of CF patients without diabetes with CFTR modulator therapies can cause recurrent hypoglycaemic episodes which resolve with dietary measures.
