Clinical Trial Summary

This is a Phase 3, 2-part (Part A and Part B), open-label, multicenter study evaluating the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamics (PD) of multiple doses of lumacaftor/ivacaftor (LUM/IVA) in subjects 2 through 5 years of age (inclusive) with cystic fibrosis (CF), homozygous for F508del. Subjects who participate in Part A may participate in Part B, if they meet the eligibility criteria.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Part A: Pre-dose Concentration (Ctrough) of LUM and IVA		Day 15
Primary	Part B: Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)		Day 1 up to Week 26
Secondary	Part A: Pre-dose Concentration (Ctrough) of LUM and IVA Metabolites		Day 15
Secondary	Part A: Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)		Day 1 up to Day 25
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Sweat Chloride at Week 24	Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device.	Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Body Mass Index (BMI) at Week 24	BMI was defined as weight in kilograms (kg) divided by height in square meter (m^2).	Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Body Mass Index (BMI) For-Age Z-Score at Week 24	BMI was defined as weight in kg divided by height in m^2. z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a mean was above or below the standard. BMI, adjusted for age and sex, was analyzed as BMI-for-age z-score (BMI z-score).	Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Weight at Week 24		Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Weight-for-age Z-Score at Week 24	z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a mean was above or below the standard. Weight, adjusted for age and sex, was analyzed as weight-for-age z-score (Weight z-score).	Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Stature (Height) at Week 24		Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Stature-for-Age Z-Score	z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a mean was above or below the standard. Stature (height), adjusted for age and sex, was analyzed as Stature-for-age z-score (Stature z-score).	Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Number of Pulmonary Exacerbations	Pulmonary exacerbation was defined as new or changed treatment with oral, inhaled, or intravenous antibiotics and fulfillment of pre-specified protocol defined criteria.	Through Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Number of Participants With at Least One Pulmonary Exacerbation Pulmonary Exacerbation Through Week 24	Pulmonary exacerbation was defined as new or changed treatment with oral, inhaled, or intravenous antibiotics and fulfillment of pre-specified protocol defined criteria. Time to event data was not collected and instead, number of participants with first event were collected and are reported. Time-to-first pulmonary exacerbation was planned to be estimated using Kaplan-Meier (KM) estimates. However, due to less than 50% of events, time-to-first event data was not estimated. Instead, number of participants with at least one pulmonary exacerbation event were collected and are reported.	Through Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Number of Cystic Fibrosis (CF)-Related Hospitalizations		Through Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Fecal Elastase-1 (FE-1) Levels at Week 24		Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Serum Levels of Immunoreactive Trypsinogen (IRT) Through Week 24		Baseline, Through Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Number of Participants With Microbiology Culture Status (Positive or Negative) at Week 24	Following microbial tests were performed: Burkholderia, Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA), Methicillin Susceptible Staphylococcus Aureus (MSSA), Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Mucoid (P. Aeruginosa Mucoid), P. Aeruginosa Non-Mucoid, P. Aeruginosa Small Colony Variant and Stenotrophomonas Maltophilia.	Baseline and Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (ppFEV1) at Week 24	FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration.	Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change in Sweat Chloride From Week 24 at Week 26	Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device.	Week 24, Week 26
Secondary	Part B: Acceptability/Palatability of LUM/IVA Granules Measured Using Hedonic Scale	The acceptability and palatability of LUM/IVA granules was assessed by a visual analog scale that incorporates a 5 point facial hedonic scale (Liked it Very Much, Liked it a Little, Not sure, Disliked it a Little, Disliked it Very Much). The assessment was conducted in 2 steps: assessment of approved food/liquid (Evaluation 1), and assessment of approved food/liquid with LUM/IVA granules (Evaluation 2).	Day 1
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Lung Clearance Index (LCI) 2.5 at Week 24	Lung clearance index (LCI) is a measure of ventilation inhomogeneity that is derived from a multiple breath washout test using Nitrogen (N2). LCI 2.5 represents the number of lung turnovers required to reduce the end tidal inert gas concentration to 1/40th of its starting value.	Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Lung Clearance Index (LCI) 5.0 at Week 24	LCI is a measure of ventilation inhomogeneity that is derived from a multiple breath washout test using Nitrogen (N2). LCI 5.0 represents the number of lung turnovers required to reduce the end tidal inert gas concentration to 1/20th of its starting value.	Baseline, Week 24
Secondary	Part B: Pre-dose Concentration (Ctrough) of LUM and IVA and Its Metabolites		Week 24
