Study Summary

This trial is to study VX-121/tezacaftor/deutivacaftor, a drug combo for treating cystic fibrosis, in patients with a certain mutation.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children aged 1-11 with stable cystic fibrosis who have at least one mutation responsive to the treatment. It's not suitable for those with a history of organ transplant, cancer, significant liver disease, or certain lung infections that worsen breathing.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests VX-121/tezacaftor/deutivacaftor in young CF patients to see how their bodies handle it and if it's safe and effective. The medication aims to improve lung function by targeting the defective protein causing CF.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, common ones for CF treatments include chest discomfort, coughing, digestive changes, and potential liver issues. Monitoring during the trial helps manage any adverse reactions.
