Recruitment details

This study was planned to include 2 arms: an ivacaftor (IVA) arm (open-label, 96-week treatment period) and an observational arm. However, there were no participants enrolled in the observational arm. A total of 86 participants enrolled in the Ivacaftor arm.

Pre-assignment details

Rollover participants (who completed parent study VX15-770-124 \[NCT02725567\] Part B or Part A/B) and IVA-naïve participants (who participated in study VX15-770-124 Part A only or who did not participate in VX15-770-124 and were less than (\<) 24 months of age at the Day 1 of current study \[VX15-770-126\]) were enrolled in this study.
