Title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of VX-770 in Subjects With Cystic Fibrosis and the G551D Mutation
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ivacaftor in subjects with cystic fibrosis aged 12 years and older who have the G551D mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Ivacaftor is a potent and selective CFTR potentiator of wild-type, G551D, F508del, and R117H forms of human CFTR protein. Potentiators are pharmacological agents that increase the chloride ion transport properties of the channel in the presence of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) activation.

A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Participants from Study 110 or Study 111 entering the ivacaftor arm must have completed the assigned study drug treatment duration in the previous study.
* Participants from Study 113 entering the ivacaftor arm must have completed all study related treatments through the Follow-up Visit and met the Study 113 responder criteria during the previous study.
* Participants entering the observational arm must have completed at least 4 weeks of study drug treatment in their previous study (Study 110 or Study 111), must have completed the previous study but do not wish to enroll in the ivacaftor arm, or must have completed the previous study but do not meet the inclusion criteria of the ivacaftor arm.
* Participants of childbearing potential entering the ivacaftor arm must not be pregnant.
