DWN12088 in Patients With IPF
This is randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DWN12088 in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
- Study Sponsor: Daewoong Pharmaceutical Co. LTD.
- Start Date: July 2022
- Estimated Primary Completion Date: September 2025
- Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DWN12088 in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
Primary Outcome Measure:
- Rate of decline of FVC [Timeframe: from day 1 through week 24]
- Incidents of treatment-emergent adverse events [Timeframe: from day 1 through week 24]
Inclusion Criteria:
- Male or female patients aged ≥40 years based on the date of the written informed consent form.
- Diagnosis of IPF as defined by American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society/Japanese Respiratory Society/Latin American Thoracic Association guidelines.
- In a stable condition and suitable for study participation based on the results of medical history, physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead ECG, and laboratory evaluation.
- Patients receiving local standard-of-care for IPF, defined as either pirfenidone or nintedanib, at a stable dose for at least 3 months prior to screening, or neither pirfenidone nor nintedanib. If the patients were on pirfenidone or nintedanib previously and have been off for at least 3 months prior to screening, they will be considered as not on any treatment for IPF.
- Meeting all of the following criteria during the screening period:
- FVC ≥40% predicted of normal.
- DLCO corrected for Hgb ≥25% and ≤80% predicted of normal.
- forced expiratory volume in the first second/FVC (FEV1/FVC) ratio ≥0.7 based on pre-bronchodilator value.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Acute IPF exacerbation within 6 months prior to screening and/or during the screening period.
- Patients who are unwilling to refrain from smoking within 3 months prior to screening and until the end of the study.
- Female patients who are pregnant or nursing.
- Abnormal ECG findings.
- Use of any investigational drugs for IPF within 4 weeks prior to screening.
