Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 6 to 17 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Who may be able to join

Female of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must confirm that sexual abstinence is standard practice and will be continued until 3 months after last drug intake, or be ready and able to use a highly effective method of birth control per International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) M3 (R2) that results in a low failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly, in combination with one barrier method, from 28 days prior to initiation of study treatment, during treatment and until 3 months after last drug intake. Sexual abstinence is defined as abstinence from any sexual act that may result in pregnancy. A list of contraception methods meeting these criteria is provided in the parental information.
  • Patients with evidence of fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) on High-Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) within 12 months of Visit 1 as assessed by the investigator and confirmed by central review.
  • Patients with Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)% predicted ≥25% at Visit 2. [Note: Predicted normal values will be calculated according to GLI (Global Lung Initiative)]
  • Patients with clinically significant disease at Visit 2, as assessed by the investigator based on any of the following:
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Fan score ≥3, or
  • Documented evidence of clinical progression over time based on either
  • a 5-10% relative decline in FVC% predicted accompanied by worsening symptoms, or
  • a ≥10% relative decline in FVC % predicted, or
  • increased fibrosis on HRCT, or
  • other measures of clinical worsening attributed to progressive lung disease (e.g. increased oxygen requirement, decreased diffusion capacity).

Who cannot join

Visit 2 laboratory results will be available only after randomization. In case at Visit 2 the results do no longer satisfy the entry criteria, the Investigator has to decide whether it is justified that the patient remains on study drug. The justification for decision needs to be documented. Laboratory parameters that are found to be abnormal at Visit 1 are allowed to be re-tested (once) if it is thought to be a measurement error (i.e. there was no abnormal result of this test in the recent history of the patient and there is no related clinical sign) or the result of a temporary and reversible medical condition, once that condition is resolved.]
  • Patients with underlying chronic liver disease (Child Pugh A, B or C hepatic impairment) at Visit 1.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Double-blind period (DBP) + open-label Nintedanib period (OLNP): Randomised NintedanibExperimentalThis arm shows Nintedanib randomised participants treated orally with Nintedanib in the DBP and OLNP twice daily with a dose interval of approximately 12 hours from one dose to the next dose. Medication dosage was per administration 50 milligram (mg) [2 capsules with strength 25 mg],75 mg [3 capsules with strength 25 mg], 100 mg [1 capsule with strength 100 mg or 4 capsules with strength 25 mg] or 150 mg [1 capsule with strength 150 mg or 6 capsules with strength 25 mg] based on the participant's weight at baseline (= 0 weeks). The dosage was adjusted at subsequent visits if the participant's weight had changed. In this arm participants received Nintedanib in both periods (DBP + OLNP). Participants in this arm do not entail participants from the 'randomised to placebo' arms. DBP: Planned was from first randomised trial drug intake to last blinded drug intake. OLNP: Planned was from first open-label Nintedanib intake to last open-label Nintedanib intake.
Receives: Drug: Nintedanib
DBP+OLNP: Randomised placeboPlacebo comparatorPlacebo randomised participants were treated orally with a Nintedanib matching placebo soft capsule twice daily in the double-blind period (DBP). Participants who continued with the open-label Nintedanib period (OLNP) after the DBP switched to active Nintedanib treatment in the OLNP and were treated orally with Nintedanib twice daily. Medication dosage was per administration 50 milligram (mg) [2 25 mg capsules (cap)],75 mg [3 25 mg cap], 100 mg [1 100 mg or 4 25 mg cap] or 150 mg [1 150 mg or 6 25 mg cap] based on the participant's weight at baseline (= 0 weeks). The dosage was adjusted at subsequent visits if the participant's weight had changed. The dose interval was approximately 12 hours between one and the next dose. Here participants received placebo first (DBP) and then Nintedanib (OLNP). DBP: Planned was from first to last randomised blinded drug intake. OLNP: Planned was from first to last open-label Nintedanib intake.
Receives: Drug: Placebo

  4. Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events Over the Whole Trial

    Treatment-emergent was defined as: Adverse events with onset or worsening on or after date of treatment start until last drug intake + residual effect period was considered as treatment-emergent and was included in the analysis. Adverse events were counted under the treatment as randomized for the double-blind period.

    Measured: From first drug administration until the last drug intake, up to 92 weeks

  5. Absolute Change From Baseline in Height at Week 24

    The PedsQL™ questionnaires consists of 23 items (i) and 4 dimensions: physical (8i), emotional (5i), social (5i) and school (5i) functioning. A 5-point Likert response scale (0 = never (worst outcome) to 4=almost always (best outcome)) was used except for the Young Child Report, where a 3-point scale (0=not at all (worst outcome) to 4=a lot (best outcome)) was used. Items were reverse-scored and linearly transformed to a 0-100 scale (0 = 100 to 4 = 0). Higher scores indicated better health-related quality of life. To create total scores, the mean was computed.

    Absolute change from baseline in PedsQL™ reported by parents was based on a Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM), with fixed categorical effects of (randomised) treatment at each visit, age-group and the fixed continuous effects of baseline at each visit, and random effect for participant. Visit was treated as the repeated measure with an unstructured covariance structure used to model the within-participant measurements.

    Measured: MMRM included measurements at 0, 24, and 52 weeks after first drug administration. MMRM values at Week 24 are reported in the table below

  27. Participants Acceptability Based on the Size of Capsules at Week 24 - Patient Question

    Acceptability is defined as the overall ability and willingness of the participant to use the medicinal product as intended.

    Acceptability based on the capsule size was assessed by a acceptability questionnaire (1 item with 3 categories as shown below) for participants. In case the participant was considered not old enough as per investigator judgment the caregiver could assist with the completion.

    In addition to the commercially available 100 milligram (mg) soft capsules (oblong shape, 6 millimeter (mm) diameter and 16 mm length) and 150 mg soft capsules (oblong shape, 7 mm diameter and 18 mm length), 25 mg Nintedanib soft capsules of smaller size (oval shape, 5 mm diameter and 8 mm length) were provided in this trial for participants who were assigned to a dose smaller than 100 mg or were unable to swallow the larger 100 mg or 150 mg capsules.

    Measured: Acceptability was assessed at Week 24

  28. Participants Acceptability Based on the Size of Capsules at Week 24 - Investigator Question

    Acceptability is defined as the overall ability and willingness of the participant to use the medicinal product as intended.

    Acceptability based on the capsule size was assessed by a acceptability questionnaire (1 item with 3 categories as shown below) for investigators.

    In addition to the commercially available 100 milligram (mg) soft capsules (oblong shape, 6 millimeter (mm) diameter and 16 mm length) and 150 mg soft capsules (oblong shape, 7 mm diameter and 18 mm length), 25 mg Nintedanib soft capsules of smaller size (oval shape, 5 mm diameter and 8 mm length) were provided in this trial for participants who were assigned to a dose smaller than 100 mg or were unable to swallow the larger 100 mg or 150 mg capsules.

    Measured: Acceptability was assessed at Week 24

  29. Participants Acceptability Based on the Number of Capsules at Week 24 - Patient Question

    Acceptability is defined as the overall ability and willingness of the participant to use the medicinal product as intended.

Individual data sharing
No: Clinical studies sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim, phases I to IV, interventional and non-interventional, are in scope for sharing of the raw clinical study data and clinical study documents. Exceptions might apply, e.g. studies in products where Boehringer Ingelheim is not the license holder; studies regarding pharmaceutical formulations and associated analytical methods, and studies pertinent to pharmacokinetics using human biomaterials; studies conducted in a single center or targeting rare diseases (in case of low number of patients and therefore limitations with anonymization).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Nintedanib in people with Lung Diseases, Interstitial, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 43 sites in 21 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 12 inclusion and 40 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 43 sites in United States, Argentina, Italy, Russia, Ukraine and 16 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 31 Jan 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve at Steady State (AUCτ,ss) Based on Sampling at Steady State (at Week 2 and Week 26) (time frame: At Week 2 and at Week 26: at 5 minutes before and at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours post administration of the morning dose). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04093024, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Jul 2024.
