Brief Summary:
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and tezacaftor/ivacaftor (TEZ/IVA)-controlled, parallel-group, 3-part, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of VX-659 in triple combination (TC) with TEZ and IVA in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are homozygous for the F508del mutation of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene (F/F genotype), or who are heterozygous for the F508del mutation and a minimal function (MF) CFTR mutation not likely to respond to TEZ, IVA, or TEZ/IVA (F/MF genotypes).

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Safety and Tolerability as Assessed by Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: Day 1 Through Safety Follow-up (up to Day 61 for Part 1, Day 85 for Part 2 and Day 57 for Part 3) ]
  2. Absolute Change in Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (ppFEV1) [ Time Frame: From Baseline Through Day 29 ]
    FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Absolute Change in Sweat Chloride Concentrations [ Time Frame: From Baseline Through Day 29 ]
    Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device.

  2. Relative Change in ppFEV1 [ Time Frame: From Baseline Through Day 29 ]
    FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration.

  3. Absolute Change in Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R) Respiratory Domain Score [ Time Frame: From Baseline at Day 29 ]
    The CFQ-R is a validated participant-reported outcome measuring health-related quality of life for participants with cystic fibrosis. Respiratory domain assessed respiratory symptoms, score range: 0-100; higher scores indicating fewer symptoms and better health-related quality of life.

  4. Observed Pre-dose Concentration (Ctrough) of VX-659, TEZ, M1-TEZ, IVA, M1-IVA, and VX-561 [ Time Frame: Pre-dose at Day 15 and Day 29 ]
