However, progression to large-scale or multicenter clinical trials has been hampered by the fact that the current gold standard methodology of evaluating airway NE inhibition, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), is invasive, difficult to standardize across sites and excludes those with severe lung disease.

<i>Pseudomonas</i> on BAL was associated with positive neutrophil elastase (OR 4.17, 95% CI 2.04-8.53; p<0.001), increased interleukin-8 (p<0.001), increased all baseline PRAGMA computed tomography scores (p<0.001), progression of PRAGMA computed tomography scores (p<0.05) and increased risk of respiratory exacerbations (incidence rate ratio 2.11, 95% CI 1.15-3.87; p=0.017).In children with CF OPSs only marginally change the probability of detecting lower airway <i>Pseudomonas</i> and are not associated with lung disease indices nor exacerbations risk.
