Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Male or female patients, 12 years of age or older at screening;
  • Documented diagnosis of cystic fibrosis including:
  • positive sweat chloride ≥ 60 mEq/L, by pilocarpine iontophoresis OR
  • genotype with 2 identifiable mutations consistent with cystic fibrosis accompanied by one or more clinical features with cystic fibrosis phenotype;
  • Patients able to perform acceptable spirometric manoeuvres according to American Thoracic Society (ATS) standards;
  • FEV1 ≥ 40% and ≤ 90% of predicted values at screening and predose at Visit 2;
  • Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must be willing and able to use highly effective methods of birth control per ICH M3 (R2) that result in a failure rate of less than1% per year when used consistently and correctly. A list of contraception methods meeting these criteria is provided in the patient (or patient's legal guardian) information;
  • Signed and dated written informed consent and assent in accordance with ICH Harmonized Guideline for Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and local legislation prior to admission in the trial.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Evidence of acute upper or lower respiratory tract infection within 4 weeks prior to randomization based on investigator's judgement;
  • Pulmonary exacerbation requiring use of i.v./oral/inhaled antibiotics or oral corticosteroids within 4 weeks prior to randomisation;
  • Patients with history of Acute Tubular Necrosis (ATN);
  • Any documented active or suspected malignancy or history of malignancy within 5 years prior to screening, except appropriately treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of uterine cervix;
  • Patients unable to inhale trial drug in an appropriate manner from the Respimat® inhaler based on investigator's judgement;
  • Patients who have started a new chronic medication for CF within 4 weeks of randomisation;
  • Patients who have previously received a lung transplant or patients who are currently on a waiting list to receive a lung transplant;
  • Patients with a significant history of allergy/hypersensitivity (including medication allergy) which is deemed relevant to the trial as judged by the investigator or with a known hypersensitivity to trial drug or its components. "Significance" in this context refers to any increased risk of hypersensitivity reaction to trial medication;
  • Any clinically significant laboratory abnormalities at screening as judged by the investigator, or any of the following:
  • Potassium \> upper limit of normal (ULN) in non-haemolysed blood

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change From Baseline in Percent Predicted Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) After 4 Weeks of Treatment

Time Frame: At 30 minutes prior to dosing in Day 1 (baseline) and Day 29 (end of 4-week treatment period).

Trough FEV1 was measured within 30 minutes prior to dosing of study medication.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Percentage of Patients With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (AE) up to Day 36(From Day 1 (baseline) until end of 4 weeks of treatment period (Day 29) plus 7 days of follow-up, up to 36 days.)
  • Area Under the Concentration-time Curve of BI 1265162 in Plasma From 0 to 4 Hours at Steady State After Dose 15 (AUC0-4,ss,15)(At pre-dose (taken within 60 minutes prior to dosing) and 5 minutes (min), 30 min, 1 hour, and 4 hours post dosing at steady state on Day 8 for dose 15 (morning dose on Day 8).)
  • Change From Baseline in Lung Clearance Index (LCI) Assessed by N2 Multiple Breath Washout (N2MBW) Procedure After 4 Weeks of Treatment(At pre-dose in Day 1 (baseline) and Day 29 (end of 4-week treatment period).)
  • Change From Baseline in Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire Revised (CFQ-R) Total Score After 4 Weeks of Treatment(At Day 1 (baseline) and Day 29 (end of 4-week treatment period).)
  • Change From Baseline in Cough and Sputum Assessment Questionnaire (CASA-Q) (4 Separate Sub-scores) After 4 Weeks of Treatment(At Day 1 (baseline) and Day 29 (end of 4-week treatment period).)
  • Concentration of BI 1265162 in Plasma at 0.083 Hour at Steady State Following Dose 57 (C0.083,ss,57)(At 5 minutes (around 0.083 hours) post dosing at steady state on Day 29 for dose 57 (morning dose on Day 29).)
  • Pre-dose Concentration Measured of BI 1265162 in Plasma at Steady State After Dose 15 (Cpre,ss, 15)(At pre-dose (taken within 60 minutes prior to dosing) at steady state on Day 8 for dose 15 (morning dose on Day 8).)
  • Concentration of BI 1265162 in Plasma at 0.083 Hour at Steady State Following Dose 15 (C0.083,ss,15)(At 5 minutes (around 0.083 hours) post dosing at steady state on Day 8 for dose 15 (morning dose on Day 8).)
