Abstract: Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a fatal hereditary condition marked by thicker mucus production,
which can cause problems with the digestive and respiratory systems. The quality of life and
survival rates of CF patients can be improved by early identification and individualized therapy
measures. With an emphasis on its applications in diagnosis and therapy, this paper investigates
how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the management of Cystic Fibrosis (CF). AI-powered
algorithms are revolutionizing CF diagnosis by utilizing huge genetic, clinical, and imaging
data databases. In order to identify CF mutations quickly and precisely, machine learning methods
evaluate genomic profiles. Furthermore, AI-driven imaging analysis helps to identify lung and gastrointestinal
issues linked to cystic fibrosis early and allows for prompt treatment. Additionally,
AI aids in individualized CF therapy by anticipating how patients will react to already available
medications and enabling customized treatment regimens. Drug repurposing algorithms find
prospective candidates from already-approved drugs, advancing treatment choices. Additionally,
AI supports the optimization of pharmacological combinations, enhancing therapeutic results
while minimizing side effects. AI also helps with patient stratification by connecting people with
CF mutations to therapies that are best for their genetic profiles. Improved treatment effectiveness
is promised by this tailored strategy. The transformational potential of artificial intelligence (AI)
in the field of cystic fibrosis is highlighted in this review, from early identification to individualized
medication, bringing hope for better patient outcomes, and eventually prolonging the lives of
people with this difficult ailment.
