- Absolute Change in Total Brody/CF-CT Score [ Time Frame: From Baseline at Week 72 ]The exploratory Brody/CF-CT score semi-quantitatively scores the degree of structural lung disease as shown on CT in participants with CF. The score ranges from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 219 with higher scores indicating more severe structural lung disease.
- Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: Day 1 up to Week 76 ]
