A Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Tolerability of VX-661/Ivacaftor in Pediatric Subjects With Cystic Fibrosis (CF)

This is a Phase 3, 2-part (Part A and Part B), open label, multicenter study evaluating the pharmacokinetic (PK), safety, and tolerability of multiple doses of tezacaftor (TEZ) in combination with ivacaftor (IVA) in subjects 6 through 11 years of age with CF who are homozygous or heterozygous for the F508del- CF transmembrane conductance regulator protein (CFTR) mutation.

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Subjects who weigh ≥15 kg without shoes at the Screening Visit.
  • All genotypes as specified by the study protocol are eligible in Part A.
  • The following genotypes are eligible in Part B:
  • homozygous for the F508del CFTR mutation
  • heterozygous for the F508del CFTR mutation and with a second allele with a CFTR mutation predicted to have residual function.
  • heterozygous for the F508del CFTR mutation and with a second CFTR allele with a gating defect that is clinically demonstrated to be ivacaftor responsive
  • Subjects with a confirmed diagnosis of CF defined as a sweat chloride value ≥60 mmol/L or chronic sinopulmonary and/or gastrointestinal disease consistent with a diagnosis of CF. Subjects who are homozygous for the F508del-CFTR mutation must have a sweat chloride value ≥60 mmol/L.
  • Subjects with ppFEV1 of ≥40 percentage points at the Screening Visit
  • Subjects with stable CF disease as deemed by the investigator at the Screening Visit.
  • Subjects who are willing to remain on their stable CF medication regimen through Day 14 (Part A) or through Week 24 (Part B) or, if applicable, through the Safety Follow up Visit.
  • Subjects who are able to swallow tablets.
  • Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at the Screening Visit and a negative urine pregnancy test at the Day 1 Visit before receiving the first dose of study drug.
  • Subjects of childbearing potential who are sexually active must meet the contraception requirements

Exclusion criteria

  • History of any comorbidity reviewed at the Screening Visit 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.
  • Any clinically significant laboratory abnormalities at the Screening Visit that would interfere with the study assessments or pose an undue risk for the subject.
  • An acute upper or lower respiratory infection, pulmonary exacerbation, or changes in therapy for pulmonary disease within 28 days before Day 1
  • Colonization with organisms associated with a more rapid decline in pulmonary status.
  • A standard 12 lead ECG demonstrating QTc >450 msec at the Screening Visit.
  • History of solid organ or hematological transplantation at the Screening Visit.
  • Ongoing or prior participation in an investigational drug study or use of commercially available CFTR modulator (except physician-prescribed Kalydeco for approved indications) within 30 days of screening.
  • Use of restricted medication or food within a specified duration before the Screening Visit or first dose of study drug and/or unwillingness to maintain the restrictions.
  • History or evidence of cataract, lens opacity, Y-suture, or lamellar rings determined to be clinically significant by the ophthalmologist during the ophthalmologic examination at the Screening Visit.
  • Pregnant and nursing females.

Primary outcomes

  1. Part A: Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) of TEZ and IVA

    Time frame: Day 1 and Day 14

  2. Part A: Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve During Dosing Interval (AUCtau) of TEZ and IVA

    Time frame: Day 1 and Day 14

  3. Part B: Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Time frame: Day 1 up to Week 28

Secondary outcomes

  1. Part A: Cmax of TEZ Metabolites (M1-TEZ, M2-TEZ) and IVA Metabolites (M1-IVA, M6-IVA)

    Time frame: Day 1 and Day 14

  2. Part A: AUCtau of TEZ Metabolites (M1-TEZ, M2-TEZ) and IVA Metabolites (M1-IVA, M6-IVA)

    Time frame: Day 1 and Day 14

  3. Part A: Number of Participants With AEs and SAEs

    Time frame: Day 1 up to Day 28

  4. Part B: Cmax of TEZ, TEZ Metabolites (M1-TEZ, M2-TEZ), IVA, and IVA Metabolites (M1-IVA, M6-IVA)

    Time frame: Week 16

  5. Part B: AUCtau of TEZ, TEZ Metabolites (M1-TEZ, M2-TEZ), IVA, and IVA Metabolites (M1-IVA, M6-IVA )

    Time frame: Week 16

  6. Part B: Absolute Change in Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (ppFEV1)

    Time frame: From Baseline through Week 24

    FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration.

  7. Part B: Relative Change in ppFEV1

    Time frame: From Baseline through Week 24

    FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration.

  8. Part B: Absolute Change in Weight

    Time frame: From Baseline at Week 24

  9. Part B: Absolute Change in Weight-for-age Z-Score

    Time frame: From Baseline at Week 24

    z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a mean was above or below the standard. Weight, adjusted for age and sex, was analyzed as weight-for-age z-score. A z-score of 0 is equal to the mean and is considered normal. Lower numbers indicate values lower than the mean and higher numbers indicate values higher than the mean. Higher values are indicative of higher weight.

  10. Part B: Absolute Change in Height

    Time frame: From Baseline at Week 24

  11. Part B: Absolute Change in Height-for-age z-Score

    Time frame: From Baseline at Week 24

    z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a mean was above or below the standard. Height, adjusted for age and sex, was analyzed as height-for-age z-score. A z-score of 0 is equal to the mean and is considered normal. Lower numbers indicate values lower than the mean and higher numbers indicate values higher than the mean. Higher values are indicative of higher height.

  12. Part B: Absolute Change in Body Mass Index (BMI)

    Time frame: From Baseline at Week 24

    BMI was defined as weight in kg divided by height in square meter (m^2).

  13. Part B: Absolute Change in BMI-for-age z-Score

    Time frame: From Baseline at Week 24

    BMI was defined as weight in kg divided by height in m^2. z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a mean was above or below the standard. BMI, adjusted for age and sex, was analyzed as BMI-for-age z-score. A z-score of 0 is equal to the mean and is considered normal. Lower numbers indicate values lower than the mean and higher numbers indicate values higher than the mean. Higher values are indicative of higher BMI.

  14. Part B: Absolute Change in Sweat Chloride

    Time frame: From Baseline through Week 4

    Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device.

  15. Part B: Absolute Change in Sweat Chloride

    Time frame: From Baseline through Week 24

    Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device.

  16. Part B: Absolute Change in Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R) Respiratory Domain Score

    Time frame: From Baseline through Week 24

    The CFQ-R is a validated participant-reported outcome measuring health-related quality of life for participants with cystic fibrosis. Respiratory domain assessed respiratory symptoms, score range: 0-100; higher scores indicating fewer symptoms and better health-related quality of life.
