A Study in US Cystic Fibrosis Patients With the R117H-CFTR Mutation to Confirm the Long-term Safety and Effectiveness of Kalydeco, Including Patients <18 Years of Age, Combining Data Captured in the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Registry From an Interventional Cohort and a Non-Interventional Cohort
A Study in US Cystic Fibrosis Patients With the R117H-CFTR Mutation to Confirm the Long-term Safety and Effectiveness of Kalydeco, Including Patients <18 Years of Age, Combining Data Captured in the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Registry From an Interventional Cohort and a Non-Interventional Cohort
The purpose of this study is to confirm the long-term safety and effectiveness of Kalydeco® (ivacaftor) in US CF patients with the R117H-CFTR mutation <18 years of age and to describe the long-term safety and effectiveness of Kalydeco in CF patients with the R117H-CFTR mutation overall and in patients ≥18 years. The long-term safety and effectiveness of Kalydeco will be examined in totality through the evaluation of the primary outcome measures.
Patient follow-up (i.e., collection of outcomes data after treatment initiation) in the Non-Interventional Cohort will be at least 36 months. The study also includes retrieval of retrospective data entered into the registry for 36 months before the initiation of Kalydeco treatment, from patients matched for Non-Interventional Cohorts. This will permit a within-group comparison of outcomes before and after Kalydeco treatment for effectiveness and safety. The interventional cohort will not be utilized.
