What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change From Baseline in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) at Week 26

    Forced vital capacity (FVC) (in milliliter [mL]) is the maximum amount of air exhaled from lungs by a participant after taking their deepest possible breath, as measured by spirometry.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 26

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs, TEAEs Related to Study Drug, and TEAEs Leading to Study Drug Discontinuation

    An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered study drug and which did not necessarily have a causal relationship with study drug. A TEAE was any AE with an onset date on or after the start of study drug intake and no later than 30 days after last dose of study drug, or any worsening of any AE on or after the start of study drug intake. A serious AE was defined as an AE that resulted in death, was life-threatening, required hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or was medically significant.

    Measured: First dose date up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug (maximum up to 263 days)

  2. Time to Any Major Events Depicted by Cumulative Percentage of Participants With All-cause Deaths, Respiratory-related Deaths, All-cause Hospitalizations, and Respiratory-related Hospitalizations

    Treatment effect on time to death (all-cause and respiratory-related)/hospitalization (all-cause and respiratory-related) were assessed using the log-rank test. Kaplan-Meier estimates were derived for the probability of death (all-cause and respiratory-related)/hospitalization (all-cause and respiratory-related). Cumulative percentage of participants with all-cause deaths, respiratory-related deaths, all-cause hospitalizations, and respiratory-related hospitalizations were reported.

    Measured: Day 1 up to Week 30

  3. Change From Baseline in Total Distance Walked in Six-minute Walk Test (6MWT) at Week 26

    The 6-MWT depicts the total distance covered by a participant during 6 minutes of walking.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 26

  4. Change From Baseline in St.George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) Total Score at Week 26

    The SGRQ is a 50-item paper questionnaire designed to measure and quantify the impact of chronic respiratory disease on health-related quality of life (QOL) and well-being, split into 3 domains: symptoms (assessing the frequency and severity of respiratory symptoms), activity (assessing the effects of breathlessness on mobility and physical activity), and impact (assessing the psychosocial impact of the disease). Scores were weighted such that each domain score and the total score ranged from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating the poorer health-related QOL.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 26

  5. Change From Baseline in SGRQ Domain Score at Week 26

    The SGRQ is a 50-item paper questionnaire designed to measure and quantify the impact of chronic respiratory disease on health-related QOL and well-being, split into 3 domains: symptoms (assessing the frequency and severity of respiratory symptoms), activity (assessing the effects of breathlessness on mobility and physical activity), and impact (assessing the psychosocial impact of the disease). Scores were weighted such that each domain score ranged from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating the poorer health-related QOL.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 26

  6. Percentage of SGRQ Responders

    The SGRQ is a 50-item paper questionnaire designed to measure and quantify the impact of chronic respiratory disease on health-related QOL and well-being, split into 3 domains: symptoms (assessing the frequency and severity of respiratory symptoms), activity (assessing the effects of breathlessness on mobility and physical activity), and impact (assessing the psychosocial impact of the disease). Scores were weighted such that each domain score and total score ranged from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating the poorer health-related QOL. SGRQ responders are those with absolute change from baseline in SGRQ total score less than or equal to -4 percent (%) at least once.

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 26

  7. Pre-dose Plasma Concentration (Ctrough) of GLPG1205 at Week 26

    GLPG1205 pre-dose plasma concentration (Ctrough) at Week 26 was reported applying the exclusion rules (e.g. dose reduction, discontinuation, samples flagged).

    Measured: Week 26 (pre-dose)

  8. Pre-dose Plasma Concentration (Ctrough) of Nintedanib at Week 20

    Nintedanib pre-dose plasma concentration (Ctrough) at Week 20 was reported applying the exclusion rules (e.g. dose reduction, discontinuation, samples flagged).

    Measured: Week 20 (pre-dose)

  9. Pre-dose Plasma Concentration (Ctrough) of Pirfenidone at Week 20

    Pirfenidone pre-dose plasma concentration (Ctrough) at Week 20 was reported applying the exclusion rules (e.g. dose reduction, discontinuation, samples flagged).

    Measured: Week 20 (pre-dose)
