Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD), of ivacaftor in children with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are 2 through 5 years of age and have a CF Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gating mutation in at least 1 allele.

Part A is designed to evaluate the safety and PK of multiple-dose administration of ivacaftor in participants 2 through 5 years of age and to confirm the doses for Part B. Part B is designed to evaluate the safety, PK, PD, and efficacy of ivacaftor in participants 2 through 5 years of age.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Part A: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Related AEs [Part A: Up to 93 Days]

      AE: any adverse change from participant's baseline (pre-treatment) condition, including any adverse experience, abnormal recording/clinical laboratory assessment which occurs during course of study, whether it is considered related to study drug or not. SAE: medical event or condition, which falls into any of following categories, regardless of its relationship to the study drug: death, life threatening adverse experience, in-patient hospitalization/prolonged hospitalization, persistent/significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, important medical event. Related AEs includes all AEs for which the causality was either related to study drug or possibly related to study drug. Data was reported as per the dose received and for overall participants.

    2. Part B: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Related AEs [Part B: Up to 28 Weeks]

      AE: any adverse change from participant's baseline (pre-treatment) condition, including any adverse experience, abnormal recording/clinical laboratory assessment which occurs during course of study, whether it is considered related to study drug or not. AE includes both serious and non-serious AE. SAE: medical event or condition, which falls into any of following categories, regardless of its relationship to the study drug: death, life threatening adverse experience, in-patient hospitalization/prolonged hospitalization, persistent/significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, important medical event. Related AEs includes all AEs for which the causality was either related to study drug or possibly related to study drug. Data was reported as per the dose received.

    3. Part A: Plasma Concentration of Ivacaftor and Its Metabolites [Part A: up to 24 hours post-dose on Day 4]

      Plasma concentration was reported for ivacaftor and its metabolites (hydroxymethyl ivacaftor [M1] and ivacaftor carboxylate [M6]) up to 24 hours post-dose on Day 4 (Hour 0 [pre-dose] on Day 1 and Day 4; 2, 3, 6, 24 hours post-dose on Day 4). Data was planned to be reported for overall participants in the period.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Part B: Plasma Concentration of Ivacaftor and Its Metabolites [Part B: up to 24 hours post-dose on Day 168]

      Plasma concentration was reported for ivacaftor and its metabolites (M1 and M6) up to 24 hours post-dose on Day 168 (Hour 0 [predose] on Day 1, 14, 56, 112, and 168; 2, 3, 6 hours post-dose on Day 14; 1 hour post-dose on Day 56; 4, 6 hours post-dose on Day 112; 24 hours post-dose on Day 168). Data was planned to be reported for overall participants in the period.

    2. Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Sweat Chloride at Week 24 [Part B: Baseline, Week 24]

      Sweat samples were collected using an approved Macroduct (Wescor, Logan, Utah) collection device. A volume of greater than or equal to (>=) 15 microliter was required for determination of sweat chloride. Data was reported as per the dose received and for overall participants.

    3. Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Weight at Week 24 [Part B: Baseline, Week 24]

      Data was reported as per the dose received and for overall participants.

    4. Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Stature at Week 24 [Part B: Baseline, Week 24]

      Stature was measured as height if children could stand unassisted and follow directions; otherwise, stature was measured as length. Data was reported as per the dose received and for overall participants.

    5. Part B: Absolute Change From Baseline in Body Mass Index (BMI) at Week 24 [Baseline, Week 24]

      BMI = (Weight [in kg]) divided by (Stature [in meters])^2. Data was reported as per the dose received and for overall participants.
