About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, 2-Part, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Ivacaftor in Subjects With Cystic Fibrosis Who Are 2 Through 5 Years of Age and Have a CFTR Gating Mutation

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD), of ivacaftor in children with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are 2 through 5 years of age and have a CF Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gating mutation in at least 1 allele.

Part A is designed to evaluate the safety and PK of multiple-dose administration of ivacaftor in participants 2 through 5 years of age and to confirm the doses for Part B. Part B is designed to evaluate the safety, PK, PD, and efficacy of ivacaftor in participants 2 through 5 years of age.

IvacaftorExperimentalPart A: Ivacaftor 50 milligram (mg) (for participants weighing less than [<] 14 kilograms [kg]) or 75 mg (for participants weighing greater than or equal to [>=] 14 kg) every 12 hours (q12h) from Day 1 through Day 3 and 1 morning dose on Day 4 during Part A of the study..

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Part A: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Related AEs

    AE: any adverse change from participant's baseline (pre-treatment) condition, including any adverse experience, abnormal recording/clinical laboratory assessment which occurs during course of study, whether it is considered related to study drug or not. SAE: medical event or condition, which falls into any of following categories, regardless of its relationship to the study drug: death, life threatening adverse experience, in-patient hospitalization/prolonged hospitalization, persistent/significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, important medical event.

    Related AEs includes all AEs for which the causality was either related to study drug or possibly related to study drug. Data was reported as per the dose received and for overall participants.

    Measured: Part A: Up to 93 Days

  2. Part B: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Related AEs

    AE: any adverse change from participant's baseline (pre-treatment) condition, including any adverse experience, abnormal recording/clinical laboratory assessment which occurs during course of study, whether it is considered related to study drug or not. AE includes both serious and non-serious AE. SAE: medical event or condition, which falls into any of following categories, regardless of its relationship to the study drug: death, life threatening adverse experience, in-patient hospitalization/prolonged hospitalization, persistent/significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, important medical event.

    Related AEs includes all AEs for which the causality was either related to study drug or possibly related to study drug. Data was reported as per the dose received.

    Measured: Part B: Up to 28 Weeks

  3. Part A: Plasma Concentration of Ivacaftor and Its Metabolites

    Plasma concentration was reported for ivacaftor and its metabolites (hydroxymethyl ivacaftor [M1] and ivacaftor carboxylate [M6]) up to 24 hours post-dose on Day 4 (Hour 0 [pre-dose] on Day 1 and Day 4; 2, 3, 6, 24 hours post-dose on Day 4). Data was planned to be reported for overall participants in the period.

    Measured: Part A: up to 24 hours post-dose on Day 4

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Part B: Plasma Concentration of Ivacaftor and Its Metabolites

    Plasma concentration was reported for ivacaftor and its metabolites (M1 and M6) up to 24 hours post-dose on Day 168 (Hour 0 [predose] on Day 1, 14, 56, 112, and 168; 2, 3, 6 hours post-dose on Day 14; 1 hour post-dose on Day 56; 4, 6 hours post-dose on Day 112; 24 hours post-dose on Day 168). Data was planned to be reported for overall participants in the period.

    Measured: Part B: up to 24 hours post-dose on Day 168

  2. Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Sweat Chloride at Week 24

    Sweat samples were collected using an approved Macroduct (Wescor, Logan, Utah) collection device. A volume of greater than or equal to (>=) 15 microliter was required for determination of sweat chloride. Data was reported as per the dose received and for overall participants.

    Measured: Part B: Baseline, Week 24

  3. Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Weight at Week 24

    Data was reported as per the dose received and for overall participants.

    Measured: Part B: Baseline, Week 24

  4. Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Stature at Week 24

    Stature was measured as height if children could stand unassisted and follow directions; otherwise, stature was measured as length. Data was reported as per the dose received and for overall participants.

    Measured: Part B: Baseline, Week 24

  5. Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Body Mass Index (BMI) at Week 24

    BMI = (Weight [in kg]) divided by (Stature [in meters])^2. Data was reported as per the dose received and for overall participants.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 24

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ivacaftor in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated at 20 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 sites in United States, United Kingdom, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Apr 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Part A: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Related AEs (time frame: Part A: Up to 93 Days). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01705145, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Apr 2016.
