NCT ID NCT05844449
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 3 study tests the long-term safety and effectiveness of a triple combination drug (vanzacaftor/tezacaftor/deutivacaftor) in 174 people with cystic fibrosis aged 1 and older. Participants who completed a prior study will receive the drug to see if it helps control symptoms and improve lung function over time.
