Dear Friend,
We are writing with exciting news. Tuesday morning, Vertex Pharmaceuticals announced the results from the Phase 3 clinical trials of ivacaftor (Kalydeco™) and lumacaftor (VX-809) in people with two copies of the F508del mutation.
The studies showed that, compared with those on placebo, participants who took the combination treatment showed significant and consistent improvement in lung function and in other important health measures, including weight gain, and a reduction in the rate of pulmonary exacerbations.

These positive results represent an important milestone in the history of CF – and a significant step forward in our effort to bring new treatments targeting the underlying cause of the disease to all people with CF.

While we cannot predict the outcome of the FDA’s review, we believe the Phase 3 results present a compelling case for the approval of this much-needed potential new treatment.
