About this study

Official title: Randomised, Double-Blind (Sponsor Open), Placebo-Controlled, Multicentre, Dose Ranging Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Danirixin Tablets Administered Twice Daily Compared With Placebo for 24 Weeks in Adult Participants With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Danirixin (DNX) is a selective CXC chemokine receptor (CXCR2) antagonist being developed as a potential anti-inflammatory agent for the treatment of COPD. This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind (Sponsor Open) study. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical activity and safety of danirixin compared with placebo in participants with COPD. Following baseline assessments collected over a 7 day period participants will be randomized (1:1:1:1:1:1) to receive one of five dose strengths of danirixin (5 milligram [mg], 10 mg, 25 mg, 35 mg and 50 mg) or placebo. Study treatment will be administered orally twice daily for 24 weeks. Participants will continue with their standard of care inhaled medications (i.e. long acting bronchodilators with or without inhaled corticosteroids) while receiving study treatment. Follow up will continue up to 28 days post last dose. Approximately 700 participants will be screened with a target of 540 participants completing 24 weeks of treatment and key study assessments.

    The SGRQ-C consists of 40 items aggregated into 3 component scores: Symptoms, Activity, Impacts, and a Total score. Each response to a question is assigned a weight. Component scores are calculated by summing the weights from all positive items in that component, dividing by the sum of weights for all items in that component, and multiplying this number by 100. Component scores could range from 0-100, with a higher component score indicating greater disease burden. Day 1 was considered as Baseline. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting Baseline value from the specified time point value. Posterior mean change and standard deviation has been presented.

    Measured: Baseline, Days 84 and 168

  11. Number of SGRQ Responder

    A participant was consider Responder according to SGRQ total score if their change from Baseline SGRQ total score of 4 units below Baseline or lower.

    Measured: Day 84 and Day 168

  12. Change From Baseline COPD Assessment Test (CAT) Total Score

    The CAT is an 8 item questionnaire (cough, sputum, chest tightness, breathlessness, going up hills/stairs, activity limitation at home, confidence leaving the home, and sleep and energy) that measures health status of participants with COPD. Participants were completed each question by rating their experience on a 6 point scale ranging from 0 (maximum impairment) to 5 (no impairment) with a total scoring range of 0-40; higher scores indicate worse health status. A CAT score was calculated by summing the non-missing scores on the eight items. Individual items are scored from 0 to 5 with a total score range from 0 - 40, higher scores indicate greater disease impact. Day 1 was considered as Baseline. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting Baseline value from the specified time point value. Posterior mean change and standard deviation has been presented.

    Measured: Baseline, Days 84 and 168

  13. Number of CAT Responder

    A participant was considered as a responder according to CAT score if their change from Baseline CAT score 2.0 units below Baseline or lower.

    Measured: Day 84 and Day 168

  14. Change From Baseline in Post-bronchodilator FEV1 as a Lung Function Assessment

    Spirometric analysis was done to determine FEV1. Day 1 was considered as Baseline. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting Baseline value from the specified time point value. Least square mean change from Baseline and standard error has been presented.

    Measured: Baseline, Days 84 and 168

  15. Percent Predicted Normal FEV1

    Spirometric analysis was done to determine percent predicted FEVI at screening. FEV1 is forced expiratory volume in one second. Percent predicted FEV1 is defined as the percent FEV1 of the participant is divided by average FEV1 percent in the population of any person similar age, sex and body composition.

    Measured: At Screening

  16. Change From Baseline in Post-bronchodilator Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) as a Lung Function Assessment

    Spirometric analysis was done to determine FVC. Day 1 was considered as Baseline. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting Baseline value from the specified time point value. Least square mean change from Baseline and standard error has been presented.

    Measured: Baseline, Days 84 and 168

  17. Change From Baseline in Post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC Ratio as a Lung Function Assessment

    Spirometric analysis was done to determine FEV1 and FVC. Day 1 was considered as Baseline. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting Baseline value from the specified time point value.

    Measured: Baseline, Days 84 and 168

  18. Change From Baseline Number of Puffs of Rescue Medication Per Day

    The mean number of puffs of rescue per day was calculated over the same time periods and using the same assumptions as rescue use via diary. Day 1 was considered as Baseline. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting Baseline value from the specified time point value. Least square mean change from Baseline and standard error has been presented.

    Measured: Baseline, Months 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6

  19. Participant Experience of Physical Activity Measured Using PROactive Physical Activity in COPD (C-PPAC) Questionnaire

    The Clinical Visit PROactive Physical Activity in COPD (C-PPAC) tool is a designed for intermittent use within a clinical study. PROactive Total Score and two domain scores (amount and difficulty) are derived using data from the C-PPAC questionnaire and a physical activity monitor worn for 7 days prior to the questionnaire.C-PPAC is a 12 item questionnaire. The PROactive tools are scored from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating greater disease impact. It was implemented in a subset of approximately 50% of participants. The amount domain is calculated using 2 items from the C-PPAC questionnaire (amount of walking outside and chores outside) and 2 activity monitor outputs (vector magnitude units per minute (VMU/min) and steps/day). Each domain score is based on the addition of items (0-15 for amount and 0-40 for difficulty) and then scaled from 0-100. The total score is calculated as (amount+difficulty)/2.

    Measured: Days 84 and 168

  20. Danirixin Whole Blood Pharmacokinetic Concentration-Time Data

    Blood samples were collected from the participants for the analysis of blood pharmacokinetic concentration-time data. All participants in the mITT population who had at least 1 non-missing Pharmacokinetic assessment obtained and analyzed whilst on treatment with danirixin were included Pharmacokinetic population.

    Measured: Pre-dose on Days 1, 56, 84 and 168; 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 hours post-dose on Days 1 and 168

  21. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Last Time of Quantifiable Concentration [AUC(0-t)] of Danirixin in Whole Blood Using Dried Blood Spot

    Blood samples were collected at indicated timepoints for the analysis of phamacokinetic parameter. All participants in the PK population who had at least 1 non-missing PK assessment obtained and analyzed whilst on treatment with danirixin from a dry blood spot sample and corresponding wet whole blood sample were included in Pharmacokinetic population.

    Measured: Days 1 and 168

  22. Concentration Maximum (Cmax) of Danirixin in Whole Blood Using Dried Blood Spots

    Blood samples were collected from the participants for the analysis of pharmacokinetic parameter.

    Measured: Days 1 and 168

  23. Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Danirixin in Whole Blood Using Dried Blood Spots

    Blood samples were collected from the participants for the analysis of pharmacokinetic parameter.

    Measured: Days 1 and 168
