What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT04923464
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ELX/TEZ/IVACF participants who are currently on a stable regimen of commercially available ELX/TEZ/IVA will be evaluated for the performance of wearable technology devices. Wearable devices include a wrist-worn actigraphy sensor and an ambulatory cough monitoring system.

What is being measured

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

  1. Compliance With Actigraphy Wearable Device Measured as Percentage of Time a Participant is Wearing the Actigraphy Wearable Device

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 12

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Compliance With Cough Measurement Device Measured as Percentage of Time a Participant is Wearing the Cough Measurement Device

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 12

  2. Number of Steps per day and Variability in Number of Steps per day Over Time

    Number of steps will be reported as mean and variability will be reported as standard deviation (SD).

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 12

  3. Number of Coughs per day and Variability in Number of Coughs per day Over Time

    Number of coughs will be reported as mean and variability will be reported as SD.

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 12

  4. Time Spent Above Sedentary Physical Activity per day and Variability in Time Spent Above Sedentary Physical Activity per day Over Time

    Time spent above sedentary physical activity will be reported as mean and variability will be reported as SD.

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 12

  5. Time Spent in Moderate-to-Vigorous Physical Activity per day and Variability in Time Spent in Moderate-to-Vigorous Physical Activity per day Over Time

    Time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity will be reported as mean and variability will be reported as SD.

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 12

  6. Time Spent in Continuous Walking Bouts per day and Variability in Time Spent in Continuous Walking Bouts per day Over Time

    Time spent in continuous walking bouts will be reported as mean and variability will be reported as SD.

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 12

  7. Total Activity Count per day and Variability in Total Activity Count per day Over Time

    Total activity count will be reported as mean and variability will be reported as SD.

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 12

  8. Best 6-Minute Effort (B6ME) and Variability in B6ME Over Time

    B6ME will be reported as mean and variability will be reported as SD.

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 12

  9. Sleep Efficiency and Variability in Sleep Efficiency Over Time

    Sleep efficiency measurements will be performed using wearable technology which include a wrist-worn actigraphy sensor. Sleep efficiency will be reported as mean and variability will be reported as SD.

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cystic Fibrosis, run by Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated at 17 sites in 2 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 19 Jan 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in United States, United Kingdom. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Compliance With Actigraphy Wearable Device Measured as Percentage of Time a Participant is Wearing the Actigraphy Wearable Device (time frame: From Day 1 up to Week 12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 19 Jan 2022.
