Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS) Clinical Trial
— NINBOST2018Official title:
Nintedanib in Patients With Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome Following Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT)- a Multicentre Phase II Trial
This study investigates the safety and tolerability of Nintedanib in patients with bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. All study patients with BOS will be treated with the study drug Nintedanib (300 mg/day) as an add-on therapy to their basic immunosuppressive treatment over a 12-months treatment period.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | adverse event rate leading to interruption/ discontinuation of study treatment | adverse events of the following severity according to Common terminology criteria for adverse events(CTCAE): Diarrhoea = grade 3; Nausea = grade 3; Vomiting = grade 3; Abdominal pain = grade 3; Elevation of liver enzymes (AST, ALT) = grade 2; Elevation of total bilirubin = 2 | from screening to month 12 after screening | |
| Secondary | change of the percent of predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) | absolute change of the percent of predicted FEV1 by =10% from FEV1 before enrolment (eg, 50% to 40% predicted FEV1), confirmed by 2 pulmonary function tests (PFT) performed at least two weeks apart and after exclusion of infections and extra pulmonary causes | Pulmonary function tests will be performed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12 and after 13 months | |
| Secondary | change in forced vital capacity (FVC) | volume of air that can forcibly be blown out after full inspiration, (measured in Liters) | Pulmonary function tests will be performed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12 and after 13 months | |
| Secondary | change in total lung capacity (TLC) | the volume in the lungs at maximal Inflation (measured in liters) | Pulmonary function tests will be performed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12 and after 13 months | |
| Secondary | Change in diffusion capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) | extent to which oxygen passes from the air sacs of the lungs into the blood (measured in "ml/min/kPa) | Pulmonary function tests will be performed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12 and after 13 months | |
| Secondary | Change in exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) | Change in exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) (measured in parts per Billion) | Pulmonary function tests will be performed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12 and after 13 months | |
| Secondary | Nitrogen (N2)-washout | The following describes a single-breath nitrogen test: A subject takes a breath of 100% oxygen and exhales through a one-way valve measuring nitrogen content and volume. A plot of the nitrogen concentration (as a % of total gas) vs. expired volume is obtained by increasing the nitrogen concentration from zero to the percentage of nitrogen in the alveoli. The nitrogen concentration is initially zero because the subject is exhaling the dead space oxygen they just breathed in (does not participate in alveolar exchange), and climbs as alveolar air mixes with the dead space air. The dead space can be determined from this curve by drawing a vertical line down the curve such that the areas below the curve (left of the line) and above the curve (right of the line) are equal | Pulmonary function tests will be performed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12 and after 13 months | |
| Secondary | changes in in 6 minutes walking distance (6-MWD) | standardized 6-minute walk test will be performed breathing room air and performed according to the guidelines of the American Thoracic Society. Significant drop of transcutaneous measured arterial oxygen Saturation (SaO2) is defined as a ?SaO2 = 4% or SaO2 < 90%. A significant change in walking distance will be ? distance = 40 metre. | 6-MWD will be performed at screening, after 6, after 12 months | |
| Secondary | cumulative steroid doses | steroid doses per month (in mg) | assessed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, and after 13 months | |

| Secondary | disease-free survival of underlying hematologic disease | disease-free survival of underlying hematologic disease | assessed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, and after 13 months | |
| Secondary | changes in St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) | The SGRQ is designed to measure health impairment in patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); 3 component scores are calculated: symptoms; activity; impacts. Each questionnaire response has a unique empirically derived 'weight'. The lowest possible weight is zero and the highest is 100. | assessed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, and after 13 months | |
| Secondary | changes in NIH GvHD grading score | NIH symptom-based lung score (score 0: no symptoms, score 1: shortness of breath with stairs, score 2: shortness of breath on flat ground, score 3: shortness of breath at rest or requiring oxygen) | assessed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, and after 13 months | |
| Secondary | changes in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bone Marrow Transplant (FACT-BMT) questionnaire | specific HSCT-patients validated self-report questionnaire using a 5 point Likert scale and covering 4 specific domains that include physical, social and family, emotional and functional well-being. Scoring produces a range from 0-148, the higher the score, the better the Quality of Life (QOL). | assessed at screening, after 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, and after 13 months | |
