Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VX-809 in participants with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are homozygous for the F508del mutation on the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This was a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-dose study of orally-administered VX-809 in participants with CF who are homozygous for the specific CFTR mutation known as ∆F508 or F508del. Enrollment was planned for 90 participants at approximately 20 centers. Participants were planned to be randomized in a 4:1 ratio to receive 1 of 4 doses of VX-809 or placebo once a day for 28 days in a parallel design. Participants were outpatients during the study, except for overnight stays on Day 1 and 28.
