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   43977   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7312   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 ).

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Subjects were enrolled at 47 investigational sites in 16 countries from September 24, 2018 to November 14, 2019. Out of 109 enrolled subjects, 106 were treated (mITT population) and 3 were not treated. Data for subject number per country and age-group breakdown is provided for 106 subjects as data for age for one of the subjects was not collected.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    A total of 109 subjects with Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) were enrolled and randomized in this study. Of which, 106 subjects received at least one dose of study drug (mITT). The maximum length of the dosing period was up to Week 46. Subjects were then followed-up for safety for up to Week 60.

    End point title
    Change from Baseline in Forced (Expiratory) Vital Capacity (FVC) at Week 52 [1]
    End point description
    FVC is the total amount of air exhaled during the forced expiratory volume test that is measured during spirometry and is the most important measurement of lung function. This test requires subject to breath into a tube connected to a machine that measures the amount of air that can be moved in and out of the lungs. Change from baseline is defined as post-baseline value minus baseline value. A negative change from baseline indicates decline. MITT population included all subjects who were randomised and received at least 1 dose of study treatment (BG00011 or placebo). 'n’ are the subjects who were assessed at the specified timepoint in this endpoint. 'n' at Week 52, are a few subjects whose early termination visit fell into the analysis visit window of the Week 52 visit. No subject received Week 52 dosing.

    Change from Baseline in FVC, Expressed in Percent Predicted at Week 52
    End point description
    FVC is the total amount of air exhaled during the forced expiratory volume test measured during spirometry and is the most important measurement of lung function. It requires subject to breath into a tube connected to a machine that measures the amount of air that can be moved in and out of the lungs after taking an inhaled bronchodilator medicine which is used to dilate subject's bronchial (breathing) tubes. Percent predicted FVC (in %, here FVC was measured in litres) = [(observed FVC)/(predicted FVC)]*100. Change from baseline is defined as post-baseline value minus baseline value. A negative change from baseline indicates decline. MITT population included all subjects who were randomised and received at least 1 dose of study treatment (BG00011 or placebo). 'n’ are the subjects who were assessed at the specified timepoint. 'n' at Week 52, are a few subjects whose early termination visit fell into the analysis visit window of the Week 52 visit.

The earliest time to meet at least 1 composite criterion was calculated.

    Statistical analysis description
    A cox proportional hazards model with terms for treatment (BG00011 vs. placebo) and randomization stratification factor is used. A stratified log-rank test is used to compare the 2 treatment groups using randomization stratus as the stratification factor. An HR (Hazard Ratio) < 1 indicates lower risk of event for the BG00011 group where HR is based on Cox proportional hazard model with treatment (Placebo, BG00011) as the categorical covariate.

    Time to First Acute Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) Exacerbation
    End point description
    Time to first acute IPF exacerbation is defined as time from randomization to the first occurrence of acute IPF exacerbation. Acute IPF exacerbation is defined as a clinically significant deterioration of unidentifiable cause in a subject with underlying IPF. The diagnostic criteria for IPF used in this study were derived from evidence-based guidelines developed by the American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society/Japanese Respiratory Society/Latin American Thoracic Association (ATS/ERS/JRS/ALAT) joint task force for the diagnosis and management of IPF. Participants were assessed according to the modified 2007 diagnostic criteria for acute IPF exacerbation. MITT population included all subjects who were randomised and received at least 1 dose of study treatment (BG00011 or placebo). 'Number of subjects analysed' are the subjects who had at least one acute IPF exacerbation.

    Change from Baseline in Percent Predicted FVC
    End point description
    FVC is the total amount of air exhaled during the forced expiratory volume test that is measured during spirometry and is the most important measurement of lung function. This test requires subject to breath into a tube connected to a machine that measures the amount of air that can be moved in and out of the lungs after taking an inhaled bronchodilator medicine which is used to dilate subject's bronchial (breathing) tubes. Percent predicted FVC (in %) = [(observed FVC)/(predicted FVC)]*100. Change from baseline is defined as post-baseline value minus baseline value. A negative change from baseline indicates decline. MITT population included all subjects who were randomised and received at least 1 dose of study treatment (BG00011 or placebo). 'n’ are the subjects who were assessed at the specified timepoint in this endpoint.

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death, requires inpatient hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability and/or results in a congenital anomaly.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    02 Jul 2019
    The primary reason for this amendment to Protocol 203PF203 is to reflect current modified (2018) American Thoracic Society (ATS) guidelines for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) diagnosis. • The stratification of subjects on background therapy was clarified. • Text was added to clarify that the Investigator should attempt to complete the Investigator’s determination of IPF exacerbation as soon as possible. • The exclusion criteria due to current hepatitis C or hepatitis B infection was clarified. • Liver chemistry threshold discontinuation criteria were added. • Dosing can be performed 2 days from the dose schedule. • A subject may continue in the study on their assigned study treatment if background therapy is initiated or adjusted. • The interim analysis when approximately 50% of subjects completed the week 52 visit was removed. A potential interim database lock and its associated interim analysis for efficacy and safety data is added.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
