Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with confirmed diagnosis of CF.
  • Homozygous for F508del (F/F).
  • Subjects who weigh ≥8 kg without shoes and wearing light clothing at the Screening Visit.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any clinically significant laboratory abnormalities at the Screening Visit that would interfere with the study assessments or pose an undue risk for the subject.
  • Solid organ or hematological transplantation.
  • History of any illness or comorbidity reviewed at the Screening Visit that, in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study.

Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.

Treatment and study plan

LUM/IVA

Drug

FDC tablets or granules for oral administration.

Other names: Lumacaftor/Ivacaftor, VX-809/VX-770

Placebo

Drug

Placebo matched to LUM/IVA for oral administration.

Primary outcomes

  1. Part 1: Absolute Change From Baseline in MRI Global Chest Score at Week 48

    Time frame: From Baseline at Week 48

    MRI scans assessed semi-quantitatively via a standardized chest MRI scoring system. Each participant had 6 lobes scored using 7 scoring parameters:1) Bronchiectasis/wall thickening 2) Mucus plugging 3) Abscesses/sacculations 4) Consolidations 5) Special findings 6)Mosaic pattern 7) Perfusion abnormalities. For each of 7 parameter, there were scores of 6 lobes (score of each lobe : 0= normal value, 1 = <50% of lobe involved and 2 = >=50% of lobe involved). MRI global score was calculated as sum of parameters 1 to 7. MRI total score is ranged from 0-84. Higher score indicate more lobe involvement.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Part 1: Absolute Change in Lung Clearance Index2.5 (LCI2.5) Through Week 48

    Time frame: From Baseline Through Week 48

    LCI2.5 represents the number of lung turnovers required to reduce the end-tidal inert gas concentration to 1/40th of its starting value.

  2. Part 1: Absolute Change in Weight-for-age Z-score at Week 48

    Time frame: From Baseline at Week 48

    The z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a value was above or below the standard. A z-score of 0 is equal to the standard. Lower numbers indicate values lower than the standard and higher numbers indicate values higher than the standard.

  3. Part 1: Absolute Change in Stature-for-age Z-score at Week 48

    Time frame: From Baseline at Week 48

    The z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a value was above or below the standard. A z-score of 0 is equal to the standard. Lower numbers indicate values lower than the standard and higher numbers indicate values higher than the standard.

  4. Part 1: Absolute Change in Body Mass Index (BMI)-For-age Z-score at Week 48

    Time frame: From Baseline at Week 48

    BMI was defined as weight in kilogram (kg) divided by squared height in meters (m^2). The z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a value was above or below the standard. A z-score of 0 is equal to the standard. Lower numbers indicate values lower than the standard and higher numbers indicate values higher than the standard.
