Safety and Efficacy of BIBF 1120 at High Dose in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Patients

June 24, 2016 updated by: Boehringer Ingelheim

A 52 Weeks, Double Blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Trial Evaluating the Effect of Oral BIBF 1120, 150 mg Twice Daily, on Annual Forced Vital Capacity Decline, in Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic disease of unknown cause that results in scarring of the lung and there is a high unmet medical need for effective treatment to halt lung function decline, delay or avoid exacerbation (flare-ups), and ultimately to reduce the death rate.

In a large Phase 2 trial (1199.30) (NCT00514683), investigating the effects of 52 weeks of treatment with BIBF 1120 in patients with IPF, a positive effect was seen on lung function of patients treated with high dose of BIBF 1120 compared to placebo.

Hence it is the purpose of this trial to investigate and confirm the efficacy and safety of BIBF 1120 at a high dose in treating patients with IPF, compared with placebo. The trial will be conducted as a prospective, randomised design with the aim to collect safety and efficacy data.

Respiratory function is globally accepted for assessment of treatment effects in IPF patients. The chosen endpoint (Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) decline) is easy to obtain and is part of the usual examinations done in IPF patients.

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Saint-George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) Total Score at 52 Weeks
Time Frame: baseline and 52 weeks

This is a key secondary endpoint.

SGRQ is a health-related quality of life questionnaire divided into 3 components : symptoms, activity and impact.

The total score (summed weights) can range from 0 to 100 with a lower score denoting a better health status.

Means provided are the adjusted means based on all analyzed patients in the model (not only patients with a baseline and measurement at week 52).

baseline and 52 weeks
Time to First Acute Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) Exacerbation
Time Frame: 52 weeks

Due to rare events, the median of time to event is not calculable, thus the percentages of patients with (IPF) exacerbation are reported and represented as a key secondary endpoint. An acute exacerbation (reported as an AE by the investigator) was defined as follows:

Otherwise unexplained clinical features including all of the following:

  • Unexplained worsening or development of dyspnoea within 30 days
  • New diffuse pulmonary infiltrates on chest X-ray, and/or new HRCT parenchymal abnormalities with no pneumothorax or pleural effusion (new ground-glass opacities) since the last visit
  • Exclusion of infection as per routine clinical practice and microbiological studies
  • Exclusion of alternative causes as per routine clinical practice including left heart failure, pulmonary embolism and identifiable cause of acute lung injury.

Failure is the proportion of patients with at least one acute IPF exacerbation over 52 weeks, based on all investigator-reported AEs .

Time Frame: Baseline and 52 weeks

SGRQ-I is the IPF specific version of SGRQ comprises of selected items from the SGRQ divided into three components, Symptoms, Activity and Impact. Each component is scored separately. The weights for all items with a positive responses are summed and the weights from missed items are deducted from the maximum possible weight for the total score.

The total score is calculated by dividing the summed weights from positive items in the questionnaire by maximum possible weight for all items in the questionnaire. The total score can range from 0 to 100 with a lower score denoting a better health-related quality of life. Change from baseline is calculated as the difference between total score at week 52 and total score at baseline as measured by the scale.

Patient's Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) responders are defined as 'Very much better'/ 'Much better'/ 'A little better'/ 'No change'.
52 weeks
Change From Baseline in EuroQol 5-Dimensional Quality of Life Questionnaire (EQ-5D) Health State up to 52 Weeks : Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs)
Time Frame: baseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks and 52 weeks
The EuroQol 5-dimensional Health State is based on a visual analog scale (EQ-VAS) representing the general patient's health state labelled from 100 (best imaginable health state) to 0 (worst imaginable health state). A higher score indicating a better health state. Change from baseline is calculated as the difference between health state at week 12, 24 and 52 respectively and health state at baseline as measured by the scale.
baseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks and 52 weeks
Risk of an Acute IPF Exacerbation Over 52 Weeks
Time Frame: 52 weeks
The incidence rate of exacerbations (calculated as the number of patients with at least 1 acute IPF exacerbation divided by the total number of years at risk in years*100)
52 weeks
Time to Death Over 52 Weeks
Time Frame: 52 weeks

Due to rare events, the median of time to event is not calculable, thus the percentages of patients who did or did not experienced death before or at 372 days after randomisation or last contact date (whichever occurs first) are reported.

Failure is the proportion of patients who died over 52 weeks (373 days time-period) .

52 weeks
Time to Death Due to Respiratory Cause Over 52 Weeks (Adjudicated)
Time Frame: 52 weeks

Due to rare events, the median of time to event is not calculable, thus the percentages of participants who did or did not experienced death due to respiratory causes before or at 372 days after randomisation or last contact date (whichever occurs first) are reported.

Failure is the the proportion of patients who died due to respiratory causes over 52 weeks (373 days time-period).

52 weeks
Time to On-treatment Death
Time Frame: 52 weeks

Due to rare events, the median of time to event is not calculable, thus the percentages of participants who did or did not die before or at last trial medication intake + 28 days were censored at last trial medication intake + 28 days and reported.

Failure is the the proportion of patients who died on-treatment.

52 weeks
Time to Death or Lung Transplant Over 52 Weeks
Time Frame: 52 weeks

Due to rare events, the median of time to event is not calculable, thus the percentages of participants who did or did not experience event (death or lung transplant) before or at 372 days after randomisation or last contact date (whichever occurs first) are reported.

Failure is the proportion of patients who died or had lung transplant over 52 weeks (373 days time-period).

52 weeks
Time to Death or Lung Transplant or Qualifying for Lung Transplant Over 52 Weeks.
Time Frame: 52 weeks

Due to rare events, the median of time to event is not calculable, thus the percentages of participants who did or did not experienced death or lung transplant or qualifying for lung transplant over 52 weeks are reported. A patient was considered qualifying for lung transplant by the investigator if he or she fulfilled the following criteria:

FVC <45% predicted or Carbon monoxide diffusion capacity (DL(CO)) <30% pred or Oxygen saturation on pulse oximetry (SpO2) <88% at rest, at sea level (to be adapted for other heights).

These criteria were evaluated by investigators judgement. Failure is the proportion of patients who died or had lung transplant or qualified for lung transplant over 52 weeks (373 days time-period).

52 weeks
Change From Baseline in SpO2 (Oxygen Saturation, Expressed in Percent) at Rest up Over 52 Weeks
Time Frame: Baseline and 52 weeks
Means presented are the adjusted means. Adjusted mean is based on all analyzed patients in the model (not only patients with a change from baseline to week 52)
