Main objective

Scope: Efficacy, Safety, Pharmacokinetic

To investigate the efficacy of CAL101 administered intravenously (IV) as evaluated by change from baseline in forced vital capacity (FVC) compared to placebo over 28 weeks for the treatment of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF)

Secondary objectives 2

  1. To investigate the safety and tolerability of CAL101 compared to placebo in the treatment of patients with IPF
  2. To investigate the effect of CAL101 on percent (%) predicted FVC compared to placebo. For additional secondary objectives pls refer to the Protocol

Eligibility criteria

Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor

Inclusion criteria 7

  1. 1. ≥ 40 years of age (at the time of informed consent).
  2. 2. IPF diagnosis according to current international criteria.
  3. 3. Definite or probably usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern on chest HRCT performed within 12 months of enrolment, confirmed by central review (if an evaluable HRCT < 12 months is not available, the baseline HRCT will be used to determine eligibility).
  4. 4. Forced vital capacity (FVC) ≥ 45% of predicted (at Screening).
  5. 5. Diffusing Capacity of the Lung for Carbon Monoxide (DLCO) corrected for hemoglobin ≥ 25% predicted.
  6. 6. Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/FVC ≥ 0.70 or ≥ (predicted value minus 0.10) (if predicted value is <0.80) (at Screening)
  7. 7. Either stable dose with an approved antifibrotic for at least 8 weeks prior to screening or not treated with antifibrotics for at least 8 weeks prior to screening. Patients on antifibrotic should be anticipated to stay on the antifibrotic throughout the trial. For additional Inclusion Criteria pls refer to the Protocol

Exclusion criteria 5

  1. 1. In the opinion of the Investigator, other clinically significant lung disease (e.g. asthma, emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cavitary or pleural diseases , clinically significant or treatment-requiring pulmonary hypertension) at screening.
  2. 2. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) other than IPF (including, but not limited to, connective tissue diseases, vasculitis).
  3. 3. Acute IPF exacerbation within 16 weeks prior to screening and/or during the screening period (investigator-determined).
  4. 4. Lower respiratory tract infection requiring antibiotics within 4 weeks prior to screening and/or during the screening period.
  5. 5.Evidence of impaired kidney function, unstable cardiovascular disease, moderate or severe hepatic impairment or any significant disease or condition other than IPF which may interfere with trial procedures or interpretation of trial results, or cause concern regarding the patient’s ability to participate in the trial or any medical condition which could lead to a life expectancy < 12months.

Endpoints

Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)

Primary endpoints 1

  1. Absolute change from baseline in FVC (mL) through 28 weeks (repeated measures) confirmed by central read of FVC.

Secondary endpoints 2

  1. Percentage of patients with adverse events (AEs) through 40 weeks.
  2. Change from baseline in % predicted FVC through 28 weeks (repeated measures) confirmed by central reading of FVC. For additional secondary end points pls refer to the Protocol.
