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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To evaluate the efficacy of GLPG1205 treatment in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) on pulmonary function as evaluated by forced vital capacity (FVC) compared to placebo over 26 weeks.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was performed in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the “Declaration of Helsinki” and its amendments in force at the time of the study (2013 version). It was also carried out in conformity with the protocol, the International Council for Harmonisation Guideline for Good Clinical Practice (ICH-GCP) E6 (R2), and local ethical and legal requirements. The investigator informed the participants of the risks and benefits of the study. The participants were informed that they could withdraw from the study at any time for any reason. Consent was obtained in writing prior to any study-related activities; the investigator retained a copy of the informed consent forms (ICFs), which are available to the sponsor for review. The participants were covered by the sponsor’s insurance according to local legal requirements.

    Forced vital capacity (FVC) (milliliter [mL]) is the maximum amount of air exhaled from lungs by a participant after taking their deepest possible breath, as measured by spirometry. Participants in the full analysis set (FAS) (consisted of all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of the study drug) with available data were analyzed.

    Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs, TEAEs Related to Study Drug, and TEAEs Leading to Study Drug Discontinuation
    End point description
    An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered study drug and which did not necessarily have a causal relationship with study drug. A TEAE was any AE with an onset date on or after the start of study drug intake and no later than 30 days after last dose of study drug, or any worsening of any AE on or after the start of study drug intake. A serious AE was defined as an AE that resulted in death, was life-threatening, required hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or was medically significant. Participants in the FAS population were analyzed.

    Time to Any Major Events Depicted by Cumulative Percentage of Participants With All-cause Deaths, Respiratoryrelated Deaths, All-cause Hospitalizations, and Respiratory-related Hospitalizations
    End point description
    Treatment effect on time to death (all-cause and respiratory-related)/hospitalization (all-cause and respiratory-related) were assessed using the log-rank test. Kaplan-Meier estimates were derived for the probability of death (all-cause and respiratory-related)/hospitalization (all-cause and respiratory-related). Cumulative percentage of participants with all-cause deaths, respiratory-related deaths, all-cause hospitalizations, and respiratory-related hospitalizations were reported. Participants in the FAS population were analyzed. Here, the value '999999' signifies that 95% CI could not be estimated for the placebo group for deaths as all participants in this group were censored.

    Change From Baseline in St.George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) Total Score at Week 26
    End point description
    The SGRQ is a 50-item paper questionnaire designed to measure and quantify the impact of chronic respiratory disease on health-related quality of life (QOL) and well-being, split into 3 domains: symptoms (assessing the frequency and severity of respiratory symptoms), activity (assessing the effects of breathlessness on mobility and physical activity), and impact (assessing the psychosocial impact of the disease). Scores were weighted such that each domain score and the total score ranged from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating the poorer health-related QOL. Participants in the FAS population with available data were analyzed.

    Change From Baseline in SGRQ Domain Score at Week 26
    End point description
    The SGRQ is a 50-item paper questionnaire designed to measure and quantify the impact of chronic respiratory disease on health-related QOL and well-being, split into 3 domains: symptoms (assessing the frequency and severity of respiratory symptoms), activity (assessing the effects of breathlessness on mobility and physical activity), and impact (assessing the psychosocial impact of the disease). Scores were weighted such that each domain score ranged from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating the poorer health-related QOL. Participants in the FAS population with available data were analyzed.

Scores were weighted such that each domain score and total score ranged from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating the poorer health-related QOL. SGRQ responders are those with absolute change from baseline in SGRQ total score less than or equal to -4 percent (%) at least once.

    GLPG1205 pre-dose plasma concentration (Ctrough) at Week 26 was reported applying the exclusion rules (e.g. dose reduction, discontinuation, samples flagged). Participants in the pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis set (a subset of the FAS, including all participants who had available and evaluable plasma concentration data, excluding all protocol deviations or AEs that may have had an impact on the PK analysis) with available data were analyzed.

    [17] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: The results for this endpoint were not reported for the placebo group as the participants in the placebo group did not receive GLPG1205.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    24 Jan 2019
    − The secondary objective/endpoints evaluating time to major events were modified. − Eligibility criteria were modified. − Prohibition of medications known to prolong QT interval was removed. Instead, chronic use or initiation of such medications needed to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. − Conditions leading to treatment discontinuation or withdrawal from the study were revised. − Conditions for rescreening were revised. − Timing for efficacy assessments (SGRQ and functional respiratory imaging [FRI]) were revised. − Safety assessments and normal ranges/thresholds for abnormalities were revised to better reflect the IPF participant population. − Definitions of populations for analyses were revised. − Definition of an acute IPF exacerbation was updated and contraindications for the 6MWT were corrected in the respective appendices.
    30 Apr 2020
    Urgent safety measures were included to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic for the participating IPF participants. The urgent safety measures were implemented in compliance with local country and study center restrictions and regulations, which included an extension of certain visit windows, unscheduled virtual phone call or remote visits, alternative visit approach, shipment of the study drug to the participants etc.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    The study was not powered to detect statistical significance and was limited by its small sample size, high variability of the primary endpoint (FVC), and a high rate of early treatment discontinuations.
