About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Cystic Fibrosis

Eligibility Criteria

12 Years - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Willing and able to use the delivery device as directed by the study manual.
  • Confirmed diagnosis of CF, defined as a sweat chloride value ≥60 mmol/L by quantitative pilocarpine iontophoresis.
  • Homozygous for the F508del CFTR mutation. If the CFTR screening genotype result is not received before randomization, a previous CFTR genotype lab report may be used to establish eligibility.
  • Percent predicted forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1) of ≥40 to <90 percentage points adjusted for age, sex, and height according to the Global Lung Initiative (GLI) at the Screening Visit.
  • Willing to discontinue physician-prescribed saline use.
  • Female subjects of childbearing potential with a negative serum pregnancy test at the Screening Visit.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of any comorbidity, which 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 (including antibiotics) for pulmonary disease within 28 days before Day 1 (first dose of study drug).
  • A 12 lead ECG demonstrating QTcF >450 msec at the Screening Visit.
  • History of solid organ or hematological transplantation.
  • Used diuretics or renin-angiotensin aldosterone system antihypertensive drugs in the 28 days prior to Screening or an anticipated need for any of these medications during the study.
  • Ongoing or prior participation in an investigational drug study within 30 days of the Screening Visit.
  • Inability to withhold short-acting, long-acting, or once-daily, long-acting bronchodilator use for 4, 12, or 24 hours prior to clinic visit, respectively.
  • History of significant intolerance to inhaled saline, or intolerance to the single dose of saline at Screening
  • Known hypersensitivity or history of intolerance to Orkambi.
  • Pregnant and nursing females.
  • Subjects who have participated in Parion Sciences Study NCT02343445.

Arm Description

Participants received 85 microgram (mcg) VX-371 diluted in 3 milliliter (mL) 4.2 percent (%) HS through oral nebulized inhalation twice daily for 28 days (Day 1 to Day 28) in treatment period 1 followed by a 28 days washout period (Day 29 to Day 56) and then received 3 mL 4.2% HS through oral nebulized inhalation twice daily for 28 days (Day 57 to Day 84) in treatment period 2. Participants also received a stable dose of 2 tablets of Orkambi (lumacaftor 400 milligram (mg)/ivacaftor 250 mg) orally every 12 hours with fat-containing food throughout the study as part of their cystic fibrosis (CF) standard of care.

Participants received 3 mL 4.2% HS through oral nebulized inhalation twice daily for 28 days (Day 1 to Day 28) in treatment period 1 followed by a 28 days washout period (Day 29 to Day 56) and then received 85 mcg VX-371 diluted in 3 mL 4.2% HS through oral nebulized inhalation twice daily for 28 days (Day 57 to Day 84) in treatment period 2. Participants also received a stable dose of 2 tablets of Orkambi (lumacaftor 400 mg/ivacaftor 250 mg) orally every 12 hours with fat-containing food throughout the study as part of their CF standard of care.

Participants received 85 mcg VX-371 diluted in 3 mL 0.17% Saline (placebo) through oral nebulized inhalation twice daily for 28 days (Day 1 to Day 28) in treatment period 1 followed by a 28 days washout period (Day 29 to Day 56) and then received 3 mL 0.17% saline (placebo) through oral nebulized inhalation twice daily for 28 days (Day 57 to Day 84) in treatment period 2.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Safety and Tolerability as Assessed by Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs
An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. AEs included abnormal clinically significant findings for spirometry, clinical laboratory parameters, standard 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital signs and ophthalmologic examinations. Serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent were events between first dose of study drug and up to 112 days (up to 28 days after last dose) that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state. TEAEs included both serious and non-serious TEAEs.
Absolute Change From Study Baseline in Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (ppFEV1) at Day 28
FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration. Study Baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement before the first dose of inhaled study drug in the study. Day 28 measurements after treatment discontinuation from the treatment period in which discontinuation occurred were included in the analysis.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Plasma Concentrations of VX-371
Urine Concentrations of VX-371
