Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Subject (or his or her legally appointed and authorized representative) will sign and date an informed consent form (ICF), and, when appropriate, an assent form. 2. Willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, study restrictions, laboratory tests, contraceptive guidelines, and other study procedures. 3. Age 12 years or older, at the date of informed consent. 4. Confirmed diagnosis of CF as determined by the investigator. 5. Subject is heterozygous for F508del and either a gating or residual function mutation (F/G and F/RF genotypes) and is in a region where their genotype and age group are approved indications for treatment with IVA and/or TEZ/IVA (see Appendix A for qualifying mutations). 6. Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) value =40% and =90% of predicted mean for age, sex, race, and height (equations of the Global Lung Function Initiative [GLI]) at the Screening Visit. Spirometry measurements must meet American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society criteria for acceptability and repeatability. 7. Subjects must be able to produce a valid (quantity-sufficient) sweat sample at screening. 8. Stable CF disease as judged by the investigator. 9. Willing to remain on a stable CF treatment regimen through completion of study participation. Are the trial subjects under 18? yes Number of subjects for this age range: 75 F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 175 F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. History of any illness or any clinical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study or pose an additional risk in administering study drug(s) to the subject. This includes, but is not limited to, the following - Clinically significant cirrhosis with or without portal hypertension. - Solid organ or hematological transplantation. - Alcohol or drug abuse in the past year, including, but not limited to, cannabis, cocaine, and opiates, as deemed by the investigator. - Cancer, except for squamous cell skin cancer, basal cell skin cancer, and Stage 0 cervical carcinoma in situ (each being disease-free for the last 5 years). 2. Any of the following abnormal laboratory values at screening. - Hemoglobin <10 g/dL - Total bilirubin =2 × upper limit of normal (ULN) - Aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT), or gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) =3 × ULN - Abnormal renal function defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate =50 mL/min/1.73 m^2 (calculated by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study Equation) for subjects =18 years of age, or =45 mL/min/1.73 m^2 (calculated by the Counahan-Barratt equation) for subjects 12 to 17 years of age (inclusive) 3. An acute upper or lower respiratory infection, pulmonary exacerbation (PEx), or change in therapy (including antibiotics) for sinopulmonary disease within 28 days before the first dose of study drug in the Run-in Period (Day -28). 4. Lung infection with a microbial pathogen that is associated with a more rapid decline in pulmonary status (including, but not limited to, Burkholderia cenocepacia, Burkholderia dolosa, and Mycobacterium abscessus). For subjects who have had a history of a positive culture, the investigator will apply the following criteria to establish whether the subject is free of infection with such organisms: - The subject has not had respiratory tract culture positive for these organisms within the 12 months before the date of informed consent. - The subject has had at least 2 respiratory tract cultures negative for such organisms within the 12 months before the date of informed consent, with the first and last of these separated by at least 3 months, and the most recent one within the 6 months before the date of informed consent. 5. An acute illness not related to CF (e.g., gastroenteritis) within 14 days before the first dose of study drug in the Run-in Period (Day -28). 6. Ongoing or prior participation in a study of an investigational treatment other than a Vertex CFTR modulator within 28 days or 5 terminal half-lives (whichever is longer) before screening. The duration of the elapsed time may be longer if required by local regulations. 7. Use of prohibited medications as defined in the protocol within the specified window before the first dose of study drug in the Run-in Period (Day -28). 8. Pregnant or breast-feeding females. All female subjects, regardless of childbearing potential status, must have negative pregnancy tests at the Screening Visit (Day -56) and at the Day -28 Visit, before the first dose of study drug in the Run-in Period. 9. The subject or a close relative of the subject is the investigator or a subinvestigator, research assistant, pharmacist, study coordinator, or other staff directly involved with the conduct of the study at that site. However, an adult (aged 18 years or older) who is a relative of a study staff member may be enrolled in the study provided that -
