Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Test How Well a Medicine Called Nintedanib Helps People in China With Progressive Lung Fibrosis (NCT NCT05065190)

NCT ID: NCT05065190

Last Updated: 2025-05-20

Results Overview

Annual rate of decline in FVC over 52 weeks expressed in milliliter (mL). The main analysis used a restricted maximum likelihood (REML)-based approach with a random slope and intercept model. The analysis included the fixed, categorical effects of treatment, high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) pattern at baseline, fixed continuous effects of time and baseline FVC as well as the treatment-by-time and baseline-by-time interactions. Random effects were included for the patient response for both time and intercept. For patients who prematurely discontinued study treatment, data collected at follow-up visit and visits after treatment discontinuation was included in the analysis.

Participant Flow

A double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to generate additional data on the efficacy of 150 mg bid nintedanib in Chinese patients with Chronic Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) with a progressive phenotype compared with placebo over 52 weeks.

All subjects were screened for eligibility prior to participation in the trial. Subjects attended a specialist site which ensured that they (the subjects) strictly met all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria. Subjects were not to be allocated to a treatment group if any of the entry criteria were violated.

Placebo
A soft gelatin capsule of placebo matching in size, weight, colour and shape to 150 milligram (mg) or 100 mg soft gelatin capsule of Nintedanib, was administered orally twice daily (bid) in Chinese patients with chronic fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) with progressive phenotype with over 52 weeks.
150 mg Nintedanib
A soft gelatin capsule of 150 mg Nintedanib was administered orally twice daily (bid) in Chinese patients with chronic fibrosing ILD with progressive phenotype with over 52 weeks. Dose could be reduced to 100 mg bid to manage adverse events.
