BUZZ-Vertex gets EU approval for next-generation cystic fibrosis drug; shares up

** Shares of drugmaker Vertex Pharmaceuticals VRTX.O rise 1.6% to $452.55

** VRTX says its cystic fibrosis treatment, Alyftrek, receives European Commission approval in patients 6 years and older in EU

** The approval follows a positive recommendation in April from the European Medicines Agency, the region’s drug regulator

** The FDA approved VRTX's next-generation treatment in December and generated about $53.9 million in sales during Q1

** Including session's move, VRTX up 11.9% YTD
