Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

12 years and older (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) or Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Time Frame: Day 1 up to Week 28
AE: any untoward medical occurrence in a participant during the study; event does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. This includes any newly occurring event/previous condition that has increased in severity/frequency after informed consent form is signed. AE includes serious as well as non-serious AEs. SAE (subset of AE): medical event, which falls into any of the following categories, regardless of its relationship to study drug: death, life threatening adverse experience, in-patient hospitalization/prolongation of hospitalization, persistent/significant disability or incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, important medical event. TEAEs: AEs that started/ worsened on/after the start of study drug through the Safety Follow up Visit (4 weeks after the last dose of study drug). Results were reported as planned, as a combined single LUM/IVA arm irrespective of permitted dose modification.
Day 1 up to Week 28

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Absolute Change From Baseline in Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) Up to Week 24
Time Frame: Baseline, Up to Week 24
FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration. Hankinson and Wang standards were used to calculate percent predicted FEV1 (for age, gender, and height). The Hankinson standard was used for male participants 18 years and older and female participants 16 years and older. The Wang standard was used for male participants aged 12 to 17 years and for female participants aged 12 to 15 years. Results were reported as planned, as a combined single LUM/IVA arm irrespective of permitted dose modification.
Baseline, Up to Week 24
Absolute Change From Baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) Up to Week 24
Time Frame: Baseline, Up to Week 24
FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration. Hankinson and Wang standards were used to calculate FEV1 (for age, gender, race, and height). The Hankinson standard was used for male participants 18 years and older and female participants 16 years and older. The Wang standard was used for male participants aged 12 to 17 years and for female participants aged 12 to 15 years. Results were reported as planned, as a combined single LUM/IVA arm irrespective of permitted dose modification.
Baseline, Up to Week 24
Duration For Which Participants Received Intravenous (IV) Antibiotics
Time Frame: Baseline through Week 24
The duration for which participants received IV antibiotics for sinopulmonary signs and symptoms were reported. Results were reported as planned, as a combined single LUM/IVA arm irrespective of permitted dose modification.
Baseline through Week 24
Number of Hospitalizations
Time Frame: Baseline through Week 24
Number of hospitalizations (all causes) through Week 24 was summarized. Results were reported as planned, as a combined single LUM/IVA arm irrespective of permitted dose modification.
Baseline through Week 24
Absolute Change From Baseline in Sweat Chloride at Average of Day 15 and Week 4
Time Frame: Baseline, Day 15 and Week 4
Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device. Baseline was defined as the average of the measurements at screening and on Day 1 pre-dose. The average absolute change from baseline in sweat chloride was derived as: (Average of Day 15 and Week 4 value) minus Baseline value. Results were reported as planned, as a combined single LUM/IVA arm irrespective of permitted dose modification.
Baseline, Day 15 and Week 4
Absolute Change From Baseline in Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire - Revised (CFQ-R) Respiratory Domain Score Through Week 24
Time Frame: Baseline, Through Week 24
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 (for example, coughing, congestion, wheezing), the scaled score range: 0-100; higher scores indicating fewer symptoms and better health-related quality of life. Results were reported as planned, as a combined single LUM/IVA arm irrespective of permitted dose modification.
Baseline, Through Week 24
