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. Part A: Safety, as determined by number of subjects with adverse events (AEs), clinically relevant abnormal laboratory values (serum chemistry and hematology), standard 12 lead electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital signs, and ophthalmologic examinations [ Time Frame: Day 1 up to Day 70 ]
  2. Part B: Safety, as determined by number of subjects with adverse events (AEs), clinically relevant abnormal laboratory values (serum chemistry and hematology), standard 12 lead electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital signs, and ophthalmologic examinations [ Time Frame: Day 1 up to Week 24 ]
  3. Part A: Peak concentrations (C3-6h) of ivacaftor, M1 ivacaftor, and M6 ivacaftor [ Time Frame: after 4 days of ivacaftor treatment ]
  4. Part A: Trough concentrations (Ctrough) of ivacaftor, M1 ivacaftor, and M6 ivacaftor [ Time Frame: after 4 days of ivacaftor treatment ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Part B: Peak concentrations (C3-6h) of ivacaftor, M1 ivacaftor, and M6 ivacaftor [ Time Frame: through Week 24 ]
  2. Part B: Trough concentrations (Ctrough) of ivacaftor, M1 ivacaftor, and M6 ivacaftor [ Time Frame: through Week 24 ]
  3. Part B: Absolute change from baseline in sweat chloride using quantitative pilocarpine iontophoresis [ Time Frame: through Week 24 ]

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Confirmed diagnosis of CF by sweat chloride value or CF mutation criteria.
  • Must have 1 of the following 9 CFTR mutations on at least 1 allele: G551D, G178R, S549N, S549R, G551S, G1244E, S1251N, S1255P, or G1349D.
