DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This Consortium of 10 geographically-dispersed clinical research sites will continue to study rare diseases of the airways that are associated wit defective mucociliary clearance and airway host defense mechanisms, which result in chronic airways infection and/or bronchiectasis. These disorders include Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD), idiopathic bronchiectasis (IB), cystic fibrosis (CF), airway infection with non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), rare immune disorders (e.g., RAG1 deficiency), and Cri du Chat syndrome (chr 5pminus; deletion) complicated by concomitant PCD, caused by mutations in DNAH5 (chr5p). Over the past 5 years of this Consortium's work, we have made remarkable progress that is already impacting on clinical practice, particularly in PCD and associated disorders. One major advance was the development of a non-invasive test for PCD (measurement of nasal nitric oxide, NO). This test is now validated as a useful clinical test for PCD, and we are participating in the European BESTCILIA grant to help them implement our methodology for nNO testing in Europe. Our Consortium played a critical role in identifying PCD-causing mutations in 28 genes, which we think will be responsible for the genetic cause of PCD in > 70%) of PCD patients. We have developed a genetic test panel containing those 28 genes (Ampliseq), which is being technically validated. On the clinical side, we discovered that PCD-causing mutations are associated with heterotaxy and congenital heart disease (CHD). This discovery resulted in follow-up studies, which showed worse post-operative clinical outcomes for CHD-heterotaxy patients, and has led to a call for genetic studies of patients with CHD. Along different lines, we developed a rigorous quality-of-life (QOL) instrument for PCD, which will be a key outcome measure for therapeutic clinical trials in PCD. Finally, we have developed novel preliminary data that patients with idiopathic bronchiectasis share phenotypic features with heritable connective tissue disorders, including dural ectasia, which may reflect underlying genetic variants. Taken together, the proposed work will lead to earlier diagnoses, improved care, and more effective therapeutic interventions for rare airway diseases.

描述（由申请方提供）：该联盟由10个地理上分散的临床研究中心组成，将继续研究与黏膜纤毛清除和气道宿主防御机制缺陷相关的气道罕见疾病，这些疾病导致慢性气道感染和/或支气管扩张。这些病症包括原发性纤毛运动障碍（PCD）、特发性支气管扩张（IB）、囊性纤维化（CF）、非结核分枝杆菌（NTM）的气道感染、罕见免疫病症（例如，RAG 1缺陷）和Cri du Chat综合征（chr 5 pminus;缺失）并发伴随PCD，由DNAH 5（chr 5 p）突变引起。在过去5年的工作中，我们取得了显著的进展，已经对临床实践产生了影响，特别是在PCD和相关疾病方面。一个主要的进步是PCD（鼻一氧化氮，NO）的非侵入性测试的发展。该测试现已被验证为PCD的有用临床测试，我们正在参与欧洲BESTCILIA资助，以帮助他们在欧洲实施我们的nNO测试方法。我们的联盟在鉴定28个基因中的PCD引起的突变中发挥了关键作用，我们认为这将是> 70%的PCD患者中PCD的遗传原因。我们已经开发了一个包含这28个基因的基因测试面板（Ampliseq），正在进行技术验证。在临床方面，我们发现导致PCD的突变与异位和先天性心脏病（CHD）有关。这一发现导致了后续研究，这些研究显示CHD异位患者的术后临床结局更差，并导致了对CHD患者进行遗传学研究的呼吁。沿着不同的路线，我们开发了一种严格的PCD生活质量（QOL）工具，这将成为PCD治疗临床试验的关键结果指标。最后，我们已经开发了新的初步数据，特发性支气管扩张患者与遗传性结缔组织疾病，包括硬脑膜扩张，这可能反映了潜在的遗传变异共享表型特征。总之，拟议的工作将导致罕见气道疾病的早期诊断，改善护理和更有效的治疗干预。
