Experimental: TOBI (tobramycin inhaled solution)/Placebo
Participants randomized to TOBI received the investigational treatment for 28 days twice daily (bi)d in the first treatment cycle. At the end of first treatment cycle, participants who were positive for P. aeruginosa entered the open label (OL) phase of the study and received TOBI for 28 days bid. Participants who were negative for P. aeruginosa at the end of first treatment cycle and agreed to participate in the cross-over treatment period received placebo for 28 days bid (second treatment cycle).

Drug: TOBI
TOBI (tobramycin inhaled solution) Drug: Placebo Placebo |

Placebo Comparator: Placebo/TOBI
Participants randomized to placebo group received 0.9 % saline (NaCl) for 28 days bid in the first treatment cycle. At the end of first treatment cycle, participants who were positive for P. aeruginosa entered the OL phase of the study and received TOBI for 28 days bid. Participants who were negative for P. aeruginosa at the end of first treatment cycle and agreed to participate in the cross-over treatment period received TOBI for 28 days bid (second treatment cycle).
