| Zusammenfassung: | Previous studies of CF treatments have shown suboptimal adherence, though little has been reported regarding adherence patterns to ivacaftor. Electronic monitoring (EM) of adherence is considered a gold standard of measurement.
Adherence rates by EM were prospectively obtained and patterns over time were analyzed. EM-derived adherence rates were compared to pharmacy refill history and self-report.
12 subjects (age 6–48years; CFTR-G551D mutation) previously prescribed ivacaftor were monitored for a mean of 118days. Overall adherence by EM was 61%(SD=28%) and decreased over time. Median duration between doses was 16.9hours (IQR 13.9–24.1hours) and increased over time. There was no correlation between EM-derived adherence and either refill history (84%, r=0.26, p=0.42) or self-report (100%, r=0.40, p=0.22).
Despite the promising nature of ivacaftor, our data suggest adherence rates are suboptimal and comparable to other prescribed CF therapies, and more commonly used assessments of adherence may be unreliable. |
