The CFQ-R is a validated patient-reported outcome measuring health-related quality of life for children and adults with CF. The CFQ-R contains both general and CF-specific scales. The CFQ-R was administered at Days 0, 14, 28, and 42. The endpoint was change in respiratory symptoms (e.g., coughing, congestion, wheezing) from Day 0 (baseline), assessed with the CFQ-R RSS (score range: 0-100; higher scores indicating fewer symptoms, higher health-related quality of life, or better functioning). Baseline CFQ-R RSS and age group (<18 vs. >=18 years) were included as covariates in the analysis.

Analysis on intent-to-treat (ITT) population (received at least part of 1 dose of AZLI/placebo). Missing baseline data not imputed. Missing post-baseline data imputed with worst-case value for participants who withdrew due to an adverse event (AE)/study drug intolerance. Imputation for other missing data was last observation carried forward (LOCF).

Analysis based on ITT population (all participants receiving at least part of one dose of AZLI or placebo). Missing baseline data were not imputed. Missing post-baseline data were imputed using worst-case value for participants who withdrew due to an AE or study drug intolerance. For all other missing data, LOCF imputation method was used.

The CFQ-R contains both general and CF-specific scales. The CFQ-R was administered at Days 0 (baseline), 14, 28, and 42 (the last study visit). The endpoint was change from baseline in the physical functioning domain (e.g., ability to walk and engage in physical activities) of the CFQ-R at Day 28 (range of scores: 0-100; higher scores indicating fewer symptoms, higher health-related quality of life, or better functioning). Baseline CFQ-R physical functioning domain score and age group (<18 vs. >=18 years) were included as covariates in the analysis.

The number of participants requiring additional antipseudomonal antibiotics (oral, intravenous [IV], or by inhalation), the time to use of these antibiotics, and the reasons for use was recorded. A binary variable was defined to indicate whether the participants needed any antipseudomonal antibiotics that were non-study drug via the oral, IV, or inhalation route between Day 0 (Baseline Visit) and Day 42 (Visit 5). Fisher's Exact Test was implemented on the intent-to-treat (ITT) and per protocol analysis sets to detect treatment effects on need for additional antipseudomonal antibiotics.

Analysis based on ITT population (all participants who received at least part of one dose of AZLI or placebo). No imputation methods were used for the analysis.

Hospitalization was defined as any hospital admission lasting for more than 1 calendar day that had been recorded as a serious adverse event (SAE) on the electronic case report form (eCRF). Binary variables were defined to indicate whether participants experienced any hospitalization. Number of hospitalizations was summarized by treatment group.

Sputum/throat swab samples were collected at all visits for quantitative and qualitative culture of Burkholderia species, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Achromobacter xylosidans, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA), and Aspergillus species. One CFU on the culture from either a sputum or throat swab sample was considered presence of the particular organism.

Aztreonam susceptibility of PA isolates from expectorated sputum samples (collected at all visits) was assessed. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) is the lowest concentration of antimicrobial agent that inhibits visible growth of a microorganism. The MIC50 and MIC90 for PA is the MIC required to inhibit the growth of 50% or 90% of PA isolates, respectively. Given that there might be multiple PA isolates for each participant, the MIC50 and MIC90 for PA was calculated using the MIC values for all PA isolates. The MIC50 and MIC90 were calculated by treatment group.

Analysis based on ITT population (all participants who received at least part of one dose of AZLI or placebo).

Sputum samples were collected at all study visits for quantitative and qualitative culture for PA. Sputum PA density was quantified by logarithm transformation of the CFU value with base 10. Change from baseline in sputum PA density was calculated as the difference between the log10 CFU values at Day 28 (Visit 4) and the baseline value. Missing data was not imputed. Baseline log10 CFU and age group (<18 vs. >=18 years) were included as covariates in the analysis.

Spirometry was performed according to American Thoracic Society (ATS) guidelines at each visit. Treatment effect on the relative change from baseline in FEV1 percent predicted at Day 28 (Visit 4) was tested by the ANCOVA model using the ITT analysis set. Baseline FEV1 percent predicted and age group (<18 vs. >=18 years) were included as covariates in the analysis.
