What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and Tolerability as Assessed by Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Measured: From Day 1 up to 28 Days After Last Dose of Study Drug or to the Completion of Study Participation Date, Whichever Occurs First in the Current Study 659-105 (up to Week 100)

Secondary outcomes (16)
  1. Absolute Change in Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (ppFEV1) for Participants From the Parent Study 659-102

    FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration. The analysis was planned to be reported separately for Placebo - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received placebo in the parent study 659-102 and VX-659/TEZ/IVA in the current study 659-105) and VX-659/TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received VX-659/TEZ/IVA in both the parent study 659-102 and in the current study 659-105) as pre-specified in analysis plan. Baseline was defined as the parent study baseline.

    Measured: From Baseline at Week 72 (Study 659-105)

  2. Absolute Change in ppFEV1 for Participants From the Parent Study 659-103

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

Baseline was defined as the parent study baseline.

    Measured: From Baseline at Week 72 (Study 659-105)

  3. Absolute Change in Sweat Chloride (SwCl) for Participants From the Parent Study 659-102

Baseline was defined as the parent study baseline.

    Measured: From Baseline at Week 24 (Study 659-105)

  4. Absolute Change in SwCl for Participants From the Parent Study 659-103

    Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device. The analysis was planned to be reported separately for TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received TEZ/IVA in the parent study 659-103 and VX-659-TEZ/IVA in the current study 659-105) and VX-659/TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received VX-659/TEZ/IVA in both the parent study 659-103 and in the current study 659-105) as pre-specified in analysis plan. Baseline was defined as the parent study baseline.

    Measured: From Baseline at Week 24 (Study 659-105)

  5. Number of Pulmonary Exacerbations (PEx) for Participants From the Parent Study 659-102

    PEx was defined as treatment with new or changed antibiotic therapy (intravenous, inhaled, or oral) for at least 4 sinopulmonary signs/symptoms. The analysis was planned to be reported separately for Placebo - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received placebo in the parent study 659-102 and VX-659/TEZ/IVA in the current study 659-105) and VX-659/TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received VX-659/TEZ/IVA in the parent study 659-102 or/and VX-659/TEZ/IVA in the current study 659-105) as pre-specified in analysis plan.

  6. Number of PEx for Participants From the Parent Study 659-103

    PEx was defined as treatment with new or changed antibiotic therapy (intravenous, inhaled, or oral) for at least 4 sinopulmonary signs/symptoms. The analysis was planned to be reported for overall participants from the parent study 659-103, that is combined for TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received TEZ/IVA in the parent study 659-103 and VX-659-TEZ/IVA in the current study 659-105) and VX-659/TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received VX-659/TEZ/IVA in the parent study 659-103 or/and in the current study 659-105) as pre-specified in analysis plan. Baseline was defined as the parent study baseline except for TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category, for which the baseline was defined as study 659-105 baseline.

    Measured: From Baseline up to Week 96 (Study 659-105)

  7. Number of Participants With at Least One PEx for Participants From the Parent Study 659-102

    PEx was defined as treatment with new or changed antibiotic therapy (intravenous, inhaled, or oral) for at least 4 sinopulmonary signs/symptoms. The time-to-first-PEx data were planned to be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier (KM) method. However, because way less than 50% of participants had events, median time-to-first event data were not estimable. Instead, the number of participants with at least one PEx event was assessed and reported separately for those in Placebo - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received placebo in the parent study 659-102 and VX-659/TEZ/IVA in the current study 659-105) and the VX-659/TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received VX-659/TEZ/IVA in the parent study 659-102 or/and VX-659/TEZ/IVA in the current study 659-105). Baseline was defined as the parent study baseline except for Placebo - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category, for which the baseline was defined as study 659-105 baseline.

    Measured: From Baseline up to Week 96 (Study 659-105)

  8. Number of Participants With at Least One PEx for Participants From the Parent Study 659-103

    PEx was defined as treatment with new or changed antibiotic therapy (intravenous, inhaled, or oral) for at least 4 sinopulmonary signs/symptoms. The time-to-first-PEx data were planned to be estimated using the KM method. However, because way less than 50% of participants had events, median time-to-first-event data were not estimable. Instead, the number of participants with at least one PEx event was assessed and reported for all participants from the parent study 659-103, that is combined for those in the TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received TEZ/IVA in the parent study 659-103 and VX-659-TEZ/IVA in the current study 659-105) and the VX-659/TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received VX-659/TEZ/IVA in the parent study 659-103 or/and in the current study 659-105). Baseline was defined as the parent study baseline except for TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category, for which the baseline was defined as study 659-105 baseline.

  11. Absolute Change in BMI Z-score for Participants From the Parent Study 659-102 (Participants <=20 Years Old at Parent Study Baseline)

    BMI was defined as weight in 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. The analysis was planned to be reported separately for Placebo - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received placebo in the parent study 659-102 and VX-659/TEZ/IVA in the current study 659-105) and VX-659/TEZ/IVA - VX-659/TEZ/IVA category (participants who received VX-659/TEZ/IVA in both the parent study 659-102 and in the current study 659-105) as pre-specified in analysis plan.

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 25 Jan 2022). 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?

Safety and Tolerability as Assessed by Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) (time frame: From Day 1 up to 28 Days After Last Dose of Study Drug or to the Completion of Study Participation Date, Whichever Occurs First in the Current Study 659-105 (up to Week 100)). 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 NCT03447262, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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