Dose Finding, Efficacy and Safety of BI 655064 in Patients With Active Lupus Nephritis

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Lupus Nephritis
Interventions
Drug: BI 655064 dose 1
Drug: BI 655064 dose 2
Drug: BI 655064 dose 3
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT02770170
Lead Sponsor
Boehringer Ingelheim
Brief Summary

The overall purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy of three different doses of BI 655064 against placebo as add-on therapy to standard of care (SOC) treatment for active lupus nephritis in order to characterize the dose-response relationship within the therapeutic range, and select the target dose for phase III development.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Patients With Complete Renal Response (CRR) at Week 52At week 52.

Complete renal response (CRR) was defined as urine protein (UP) \< 0.5 g/day at Week 52 and either estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) within normal range at Week 52 or decrease in eGFR \< 20% from baseline at Week 52 if eGFR was below normal range (below lower limit of normal \[LLN\], where LLN = 90 mL/min).

CRR at Week 52 (derived using UP from the 24 h urine collections) was analyzed using a logistic regression model. Factors in the model included treatment and the covariates race (Asian/Non-Asian) and proteinuria at screening (UP/urine creatinine (UC) \<3 or \>=3 g/day).

Pairwise comparisons of the modelled proportions of patients with CRR at each dose level to placebo were performed.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Patients With Partial Renal Response (PRR) at Week 52At week 52.

Partial renal response (PRR) was defined as at least 50% reduction of proteinuria from baseline if estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was within normal range at time of assessment or decrease of eGFR \<20% from baseline if eGFR was below normal range at time of assessment.

Percentage of Patients With Complete Renal Response (CRR) at Week 26At week 26.

Complete renal response (CRR) was defined as urine protein (UP) \< 0.5 g/day at Week 26 and either estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) within normal range at Week 26 or decrease in eGFR \< 20% from baseline at Week 26 if eGFR was below normal range (below lower limit of normal \[LLN\], where LLN = 90 mL/min).

Percentage of Patients With Partial Renal Response (PRR) at Week 26At week 26.

Partial renal response (PRR) was defined as at least 50% reduction of proteinuria from baseline if estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was within normal range at time of assessment or decrease of eGFR \<20% from baseline if eGFR was below normal range at time of assessment.

Percentage of Patients With Major Renal Response (MRR) at Week 26At week 26.

Major renal response was defined as follows depending on proteinuria at baseline:

* If baseline proteinuria was \<3 g/day and patient had complete renal response (CRR)

* If baseline proteinuria was \>= 3 g/day and proteinuria \< 1 g/day and either estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) within normal range or decrease in eGFR \<20% from baseline at Week 26 if eGFR was below normal range (below lower limit of normal (LLN), where LLN = 90 mL/min)

Percentage of Patients With Major Renal Response (MRR) at Week 52At week 52.

Major renal response was defined as follows depending on proteinuria at baseline:

* If baseline proteinuria was \<3 g/day and patient had complete renal response (CRR)

* If baseline proteinuria was \>= 3 g/day and proteinuria \< 1 g/day and either estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) within normal range or decrease in eGFR \<20% from baseline at Week 52 if eGFR was below normal range (below lower limit of normal (LLN), where LLN = 90 mL/min)
