Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percent Reduction From Baseline in Cough Frequency (Cough Events Per Day) to the Average of Week 8 Through Week 12
Percent reduction in cough frequency was analyzed with a mixed effects model for repeated measures (MMRM), with change from baseline at each post-baseline visit on the natural log scale as the dependent variable. The percent reduction was estimated as 100% × (1-exponential form of LS mean change estimate from the MMRM).
Baseline, Week 8 through Week 12
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Absolute Change From Baseline in Total Step Count Per Day to the Average of Week 8 Through Week 12
Baseline, Week 8 through Week 12
Study Arms (1)
ELX/TEZ/IVA
EXPERIMENTALParticipants received ELX 200 milligram (mg) once daily (qd)/TEZ 100 mg qd/IVA 150 mg every 12 hours (q12h) in the treatment period approximately 13 weeks.
Interventions
Fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet for oral administration.
