Participant Flow

A total of 248 participants were enrolled. Out of which, 246 received at least 1 dose of study drug were included in safety set and 244 participants who carried intended cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations were included in Full analysis set.

Participants were randomized to 1 of 6 treatment sequences, each of which included 2 treatment periods and 2 of 3 potential treatments (placebo, VX-661/ivacaftor \[IVA\], IVA). Treatment periods were separated by an 8 week wash-out period.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 4 and Week 8 of each treatment period

Population: Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all randomized participants who carry the protocol specified cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) mutations and had received at least 1 dose of study drug. Here 'Overall Number of participants analyzed' signifies those participants who had evaluable data for this outcome measure.

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

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 4 and Week 8 of each treatment period

Population: FAS was used. Here 'Overall Number of participants analyzed' signifies those participants who had evaluable data for this outcome measure.

The CFQ-R assessed respiratory symptoms on a scale with scores ranging from 0 to 100; where higher scores indicated fewer symptoms and better health-related quality of life.
