Detailed description of study
Eligibility of study
You may be eligible for this study if you meet the following criteria:
- Conditions: cystic fibrosis
-
Age: 6 years - 100 years
-
Gender: All
Inclusion Criteria
Male and female subjects with CF aged 6 years and older, who completed Study 113
Part B or Study 115 and are
homozygous for F508del (F/F),
heterozygous for F508del and a second allele with a residual CFTR-function
mutation (F/RF), or
heterozygous for F508del and a second allele that has been shown to be
responsive to TEZ/IVA
Exclusion Criteria
History of any comorbidity that, in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results
of the study or pose an additional risk in administering study drug to the subject
Pregnant and nursing females
Sexually active subjects of reproductive potential who are not willing to follow the
contraception requirements
History of drug intolerance in the parent study that would pose an additional risk to the
ubject in the opinion of the investigator, and which should be discussed with the Vertex
medical monitor
History of poor compliance with study drug and/or procedures in a previous study as deemed
by the investigator
Ongoing participation in another study with investigational drug
This study investigates the safety and tolerability of an investigational medication for cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that affects the lungs and digestive system. The study focuses on individuals aged 6 years and older who have a specific genetic mutation called F508del.
Participants will either receive the investigational medication or a placebo, which is an inactive substance that looks like the investigational medication but does not contain any medicine. The study will monitor participants for any side effects and how well they tolerate the treatment.
- Who can participate: Participants must be 6 years or older with cystic fibrosis and have the F508del mutation in both gene copies or in combination with another responsive mutation.
- Study details: Participants will receive either the investigational medication or a placebo. A placebo is an inactive substance that looks like the investigational medication but does not contain any medicine.
