Brief summary
This will be a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group study. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of Cavosonstat (N91115) in adult patients with CF who are homozygous for the F508del-CFTR mutation and being treated with lumacaftor/ivacaftor (Orkambi™).
Detailed description
Primary Objective: * Assess the efficacy of N91115 at 12 weeks when added to preexisting treatment with lumacaftor/ivacaftor in adult patients with CF who are homozygous for the F508del-CFTR mutation Secondary Objectives: * Assess the effect of N91115 added to lumacaftor/ivacaftor on safety * Assess the effect of lumacaftor/ivacaftor added to N91115 on the pharmacokinetics of N91115, lumacaftor, and ivacaftor

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Patients must have been treated with lumacaftor/ivacaftor for at least 8 weeks prior to Day 1 (start of dosing) * A history of Sweat Chloride (SC) ≥ 60 mEq/L by quantitative pilocarpine iontophoresis test (QPIT) (either before or after starting lumacaftor/ivacaftor treatment) * Body weight ≥ 40 kg * ppFEV1 40 - 85 % predicted (inclusive) at screening * Oxygen saturation ≥ 90% breathing ambient air at screening
