I assume you mean Kalydeco with VX809 - the new drug from Vertex Pharmaceuticals that targets the DeltaF508 gene. It is in phase 3 clinical trials at this time and from what I hear meeting all the endpoints. :)

My understanding is that VX809 would be out 3rd quarter of 2014... definitely looking forward to it.
