Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To describe the difference in terms of FEV1 decline between two cohorts of cystic fibrosis patients [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To identify clinical parameters or treatments correlated to FEV1 maintenance in two cohorts of cystic fibrosis patients [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To evaluate the number of patients with Pseudomonas Aeruginosa infection during observational period [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To describe length of time without Pseudomonas A. infection in non-colonized patients during observational period. [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
