Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

    • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).

    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate a reduction of lung function decline, as measured by a change of the yearly rate of decline of forced vital capacity (FVC).
    Protection of trial subjects
    Only subjects that met all the study inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were to be entered in the study. All subjects were free to withdraw from the clinical trial at any time for any reason given. Close monitoring of all subjects was adhered to throughout the trial conduct. Rescue medication was allowed for all patients as required.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    		 All subjects were screened for eligibility to participate in the trial. Subjects attended one specialist site which would then ensure that they (the subjects) met all inclusion/exclusion criteria. Subjects were not to be randomised to trial treatment if any one of the specific entry criteria were violated.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: Baseline characteristics are based on patients who were randomised after successfully completing the screening period and received at least one of the trial medication.

    Statistical analysis description
    Random coefficient regression with fixed effects for treatment, gender, age, height and random effect of patient specific intercept and time. A hierarchical procedure was used in order to demonstrate the superiority of nintedanib over placebo for the primary and two key secondary endpoints. The consecutive steps of the hierarchy were only considered if the previous step was significant at the one-sided 2.5% level and the results were in favour of nintedanib.

    		 Change From Baseline in Saint George’s Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) Total Score at 52 Weeks
    End point description
    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).

    End point description
    SGRQ Symptom score is a sub-component of SGRQ total score and is concerned with the effect of respiratory symptoms, their frequency and severity. This score calculated as summed weights ranges from 0 to 100 with lower score denoting a better symptom-related quality of life. Means presented are the adjusted means and are based on all analyzed patients in the model (not only patients with a baseline and measurement at week 52).

    		 Change From Baseline in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) Specific Version of SGRQ (SGRQ-I) Total Score at 52 Weeks: Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs)
    End point description
    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.

    		 Time to Death or Lung Transplant Over 52 Weeks
    End point description
    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 (up to 372 days after randomisation).

    		 Time to Death or Lung Transplant or Qualifying for Lung Transplant Over 52 Weeks.
    End point description
    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).

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.

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.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)
    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    17 Nov 2011
    - ‘Acute IPF exacerbation’ was clarified each time ‘exacerbation’ was mentioned - Procedures and appropriate measures in case of suspicion of a ‘drug induced liver injury’ event were implemented - A re-test was allowed in case a laboratory parameter was found to be abnormal at Visit 1. This was to be conducted if laboratory tests were thought to be a measurement error and not related to the patient’s condition - Patients were to be excluded from the trial if they were not able to follow trial procedures including completion of self administered questionnaires without help - Instructions were included for Investigators on the reporting of DLCO in the eCRF - Addition of the ‘always serious AEs’ according to new BI standards to ensure proper reporting of these events - Inclusion criterion 4 was changed to: ‘Chest HRCT performed within 12 months of Visit 1’, instead of ‘Chest HRCT performed within 12 months of Visit 2’
    04 Sep 2012
    - Addition of exploratory biomarker analyses in order to explore the effect of nintedanib on biomarkers related to IPF pathology and prognostic markers of the disease. Exploratory analyses of samples from patients who gave specific informed consent were performed. Pharmacogenomic analysis was also added - The criterion for poor compliance was defined as a protocol violation
