VX-445/TEZ/IVA TCIVAParticipants who received VX-445 200 mg/TEZ 100 mg/IVA150 mg as fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablets in the morning and IVA 150 mg as mono tablet in the evening for 24 weeks in the TC treatment period.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
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 Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Absolute Change in Sweat Chloride (SwCl)From Baseline through Week 24

Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device.

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.

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.

Absolute Change in Body WeightFrom Baseline at Week 24
Absolute Change in Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire Revised (CFQ-R) Respiratory Domain ScoreFrom 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.

Absolute Change in Sweat ChlorideFrom Baseline at Week 4

Sweat samples were collected using an approved collection device.

Absolute Change in BMI Z-score for Participants <=20 Years of Age at BaselineFrom 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.

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.

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).

Safety and Tolerability as Assessed by Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)From first dose of study drug in TC treatment period up to 28 days after last dose of study drug or to the completion of study participation date, whichever occurs first (up to 28 weeks)
Observed Pre-dose Concentration (Ctrough) of VX-445, TEZ, M1-TEZ, and IVAPre-dose on Week 4, 8, 12, and 16
