A Phase 1/2 Study of VX-522 in Participants With Cystic Fibrosis (CF)

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, and tolerability and efficacy of VX-522 in participants 18 years of age and older with cystic fibrosis and a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) genotype not responsive to CFTR modulator therapy.

Condition

  • Cystic Fibrosis
