Primary Outcome
|
| Outcome |
TimePoints |
The primary objective is to demonstrate superiority of BI 685509 at a target dose of 3 mg TID over placebo based on the mean difference in annual rate of decline in FVC over 48 weeks. The treatment effect of primary interest will be based on all randomised patients including the effects of any changes of treatment, i.e., a treatment policy strategy will be used.

| Outcome |
TimePoints |
| Secondary objectives are to demonstrate superiority of BI 685509 over placebo for absolute change from baseline in mRSS, FVC (% predicted), patient and physician global assessment, HAQ-DI, RP activity and DU net burden at Week 48, the ACR-CRISS, revised CRISS and for time to treatment failure. Additional objectives are to evaluate safety, PK, and exploratory biomarkers. |

Brief Summary
|
This is a multi-centre,
multi-national, prospective, randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group, Phase
II clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of oral BI 685509 at a
target dose of 3 mg TID, in adult patients with early progressive dcSSc and
vasculopathy.
Patients will be enrolled in the
trial and screened for eligibility once they have signed the informed consent.
The screening period has a maximum of 5 weeks. Eligible patients will proceed
to the 48-week treatment period. BI 685509 versus placebo use will be
established in a 1:1 randomisation after the screening period.
The treatment period includes a
4-week up-titration of BI 685509 from 1 mg to 3 mg TID: BI 685509 1 mg will be
given TID for 2 weeks. If tolerated, BI 685509 2 mg TID will be given for 2
weeks and then escalated to 3 mg TID. If the patient develops symptomatic orthostatic
hypotension on 2 mg TID, they will have to stop trial medication and contact
the site for dose adjustment. The same procedure will be followed after
escalation from 2 mg to 3mg. Every dose adjustment will require a patient visit
at the site. It is anticipated that approximately 10% of patients may not be
able to fully titrate up to the 3 mg TID dose. The main efficacy
analysis will be assessed at Week 48. After completing the first 48 weeks of
treatment, patients may continue to receive their assigned trial treatment in
the extended treatment period, until the last patient has completed the
treatment period. Patients will then enter a 4-week follow-up period that does
not include trial treatment, for ongoing safety and efficacy data collection.
The patient’s trial participation is complete when they have completed the last
planned visit (i.e., EOS, 4 weeks after EOT). |
