A Study to Test How Taking BI 1015550 for 12 Weeks Affects Lung Function in People With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)
Study Purpose
This study is open to adults with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who are at least 40 years old. People taking standard medicines for IPF, including antifibrotic medicines, can continue taking them throughout the study. The purpose of the study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1015550 can slow down the worsening of lung function. Participants are in the study for about 4 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 7 times. At the beginning, they visit the study site every 2 weeks. After 1 month of treatment, they visit the study site every 4 weeks. The participants are put into 2 groups by chance. 1 group gets BI 1015550. The other group gets placebo. Placebo tablets look like BI 1015550 tablets but contain no medicine. The participants take BI 1015550 or placebo tablets twice a day. The participants have lung function tests at study visits. The results of the lung function tests are compared between the BI 1015550 group and the placebo group. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.

Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Inclusion Criteria:
1. Patients aged ≥40 years when signing the informed consent. 2. Diagnosis: 1.

Usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) or probable UIP HRCT pattern consistent with the clinical diagnosis of IPF, as confirmed by central review prior to Visit 2*- - if indeterminate HRCT finding IPF may be confirmed locally by (historical) biopsy.
- - not on therapy with nintedanib or pirfenidone for at least 8 weeks prior to Visit 1 (combination of nintedanib plus pirfenidone not allowed), or.
- - on stable* therapy with nintedanib or pirfenidone for at least 8 weeks prior to Visit 1 and planning to stay stable on this background therapy after randomisation.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Relevant airways obstruction (pre-bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1)/Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) < 0.7) at Visit 1. 2. In the opinion of the Investigator, other clinically significant pulmonary abnormalities. 3. Acute IPF exacerbation within 4 months prior to screening and/or during the screening period (investigator-determined). 4. Lower respiratory tract infection requiring antibiotics within 4 weeks prior to Visit 1 and/or during the screening period. 5. Major surgery (major according to the investigator's assessment) performed within 3 months prior to Visit 1 or planned during the course of the trial. (Being on a transplant list is allowed). 6. Any documented active or suspected malignancy or history of malignancy within 5 years prior to Visit 1, except appropriately treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin, "under surveillance" prostate cancer or in situ carcinoma of uterine cervix. 7. Evidence of active infection (chronic or acute) based on clinical exam or laboratory findings at Visit 1 or at Visit 2. 8. Any suicidal behaviour in the past 2 years (i.e. actual attempt, interrupted attempt, aborted attempt, or preparatory acts or behavior). 9. The patient has a confirmed infection with SARS-CoV-2 within the 4 weeks prior to Visit 1 and/or during the screening period. Further exclusion criteria apply.Trial Details

NCT04419506 |
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
