is this a sign that vx809 and vx770 combo didnt work as planned, or that df508 doesnt need vx770 and may just need vx809 and vx661?

809+770 didn't produce as great of results as expected, yes.

770 will absolutely be needed - but 661 might work better than 809. or there are thoughts that perhaps all 3 in conjunction, from what i heard.

as you see from the study link, they are combining 770 and 661..... not 809 and 661.

This was from November of the Phase IIa clinical trial of 770+809. As you can see, the sweat chloride from baseline didn't decrease very dramatically after 21 days, on average. Mean decrease was - 9.10 mmol/L

It's not a complete fail - but it's definitely not what we saw with 770 and G551D. They had a mean decrease of -59.5 mmol/L.

It's thought that sweat chloride reduction will correlate well with increase in FEV1. So before doing a full on, huge, very costly study, they study a few patients with study endpoints of just sweat chloride.

haven't there been people posting on here about 770/809 who are currently in the trial? I thought they said they were seeing big results.....but i know that is different that the actual NUMBERS they arewatching (sweat chloride/fev 1) I also wonder whyVertex would continue with the study if the results from Nov are not promising.....just to prove that it is not good enough? interesting...
