Registered outcomes13
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Absolute Change in Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (ppFEV1) | From Baseline at Week 4 | FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration. |
| Secondary | Absolute Change in Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (ppFEV1) | From Baseline through Week 24 | FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration. |
| Secondary | Number of Pulmonary Exacerbations (PEx) | From Baseline through Week 24 | Pulmonary exacerbation was defined as the treatment with new or changed antibiotic therapy (intravenous, inhaled, or oral) for greater than or equal to 4 sinopulmonary signs/symptoms. |
| Secondary | Absolute Change in Sweat Chloride (SwCl) | From Baseline through Week 24 | Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device. |
| Secondary | Absolute Change in Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire Revised (CFQ-R) Respiratory Domain Score | From 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, score range: 0-100; higher scores indicating fewer symptoms and better health-related quality of life. |
| Secondary | Absolute Change in Body Mass Index (BMI) | From Baseline at Week 24 | BMI was defined as weight in kilogram (kg) divided by height in square meter (m\^2). |
| Secondary | Absolute Change in Sweat Chloride | From Baseline at Week 4 | Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device. |
| Secondary | Absolute Change in Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire Revised (CFQ-R) Respiratory Domain Score | From Baseline at Week 4 | 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, score range: 0-100; higher scores indicating fewer symptoms and better health-related quality of life. |
| Secondary | Time-to-first Pulmonary Exacerbation (PEx) | From Baseline through Week 24 | Pulmonary exacerbation was defined as the treatment with new or changed antibiotic therapy (intravenous, inhaled, or oral) for greater than or equal to 4 sinopulmonary signs/symptoms. |
| Secondary | Absolute Change in BMI Z-score for Participants <=20 Years of Age at Baseline | From Baseline at Week 24 | BMI was defined as weight in kg divided by height in m\^2. Z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a mean was above or below the standard. BMI, adjusted for age and sex, was analyzed as BMI-for-age z-score. A z-score of 0 is equal to the mean and is considered normal. Lower numbers indicate values lower than the mean and higher numbers indicate values higher than the mean. Higher values are indicative of higher BMI. |
