At least 6 cystic fibrosis patients with the S1251N mutation will be treated for 4 weeks, consisting of two consecutive treatment periods of two weeks evaluating one dose of GLPG1837 each. After the treatment period, there is a 7-10 days follow-up period.
During the course of the study, subjects will be examined for any side effects that may occur (safety and tolerability).
Changes in sweat chloride will be assessed as biomarker from baseline onwards, and changes in pulmonary function (efficacy) will be explored throughout the study. The amount of GLPG1837 present in the blood (pharmacokinetics) will also be determined.

- Changes in adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to 9 weeks ]To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GLPG1837 in terms of adverse events at every visit
- Changes in laboratory parameters [ Time Frame: Up to 7 weeks ]To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GLPG1837 in terms of abnormal laboratory parameters at every visit
- Changes in vital signs [ Time Frame: Up to 9 weeks ]To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GLPG1837 in terms of abnormal vital signs at every visit
- Changes in physical examination [ Time Frame: Up to 9 weeks ]To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GLPG1837 in terms of abnormal physical examination at every visit
- Changes in electrocardiogram [ Time Frame: Up to 7 weeks ]To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GLPG1837 in terms of abnormal electrocardiogram at every visit
- Changes in sweat chloride concentration [ Time Frame: Up to 9 weeks ]To evaluate the effect of GLPG1837 in terms of change in sweat chloride concentration, a biomarker to measure cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) ion channel function at every visit
- Changes in pulmonary function (forced expiratory volume in 1 second, FEV1) assessed by spirometry [ Time Frame: Up to 9 weeks ]To explore the effect of GLPG1837 in terms of change in pulmonary function (forced expiratory volume in 1 second, FEV1) assessed by spirometry at every visit
- Plasma levels of GLPG1837 [ Time Frame: Up to 4 weeks ]To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of GLPG1837 by measuring the amount in plasma between Day 1 and Day 29 at every visit
