Key Secondary Endpoints
- Disease progression defined as the composite endpoint of first
occurrence of *10% absolute decline in percent predicted forced vital
capacity (%FVC) or all-cause mortality at 52 weeks

Background summary
GLPG1690 is a small-molecule autotaxin inhibitor targeting disease-relevant
signal transduction pathways, in clinical development for the treatment of
subjects with IPF.
Disease-modifying drugs such as pirfenidone and nintedanib have been shown to
have a beneficial effect on the rate of decline in lung function (as measured
by FVC over 1 year) and show a trend in favor of a reduction in mortality in
patients with mild to moderate IPF. However, the residual decline of FVC over
1 year remains substantial. Therefore, there remains a considerable unmet
medical need. In a proof-of-concept Phase 2a study, FVC values remained
stable in the majority of subjects after 12 weeks of treatment with
GLPG1690 600 mg once daily (q.d.). Moreover, 12 weeks of treatment with
GLPG1690 600 mg q.d. was generally well tolerated. The current Phase 3 study is
the next step in the clinical development of GLPG1690, evaluating the efficacy
and safety of two doses of orally administered GLPG1690 compared to placebo in
subjects with IPF in addition to local standard of care.
Study objective
Primary Objective
-To evaluate the efficacy of two doses of GLPG1690 in addition to local
standard of care compared to placebo in subjects with idiopathic pulmonary
fibrosis (IPF) as evaluated by the rate of decline of forced vital capacity
(FVC) over a period of 52 weeks
Secondary Objectives
Key Secondary Objectives
-To evaluate the impact of two doses of GLPG1690 in addition to local standard
of care compared to placebo in subjects with IPF on:
-disease progression defined as deterioration of FVC or all-cause
mortality at 52 weeks
-respiratory related hospitalization until the end of the study
-changes in quality of life (measured by St. George*s Respiratory
Questionnaire [SGRQ] total score) at 52 weeks
Study design
This clinical Phase 3 study is a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group,
placebo-controlled multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy and
safety of two doses of orally administered GLPG1690 in addition to local
standard of care for at least 52 weeks in adult subjects with a centrally
confirmed diagnosis of IPF. Local standard of care for IPF is defined as
receiving either pirfenidone or nintedanib, at a stable dose for at least two
months before screening, and during screening; or neither pirfenidone or
nintedanib (for any reason). A stable dose is defined as the highest dose
tolerated by the subject during those two months. Subjects will have their end
of study treatment (EoST) and follow-up visit planned when the last subject has
reached his or her Week 52 visit.
Intervention
GLPG1690 or placebo to match will be administered as film-coated tablets for
oral use once daily.
Following doses will be tested:
- GLPG1690 Dose A
- GLPG1690 Dose B
- Placebo to match"
Study burden and risks
Risks with GLPG1690
GLPG1690 has been tested in healthy volunteers and IPF subjects. GLPG1690 has
been found to be generally safe and well tolerated. The majority of reported
side effects from these studies have been mild in intensity. Side effects were
very similar as those found in subjects with IPF. Contact the investigator if
you develop:
- cough
- headache
- upper and lower respiratory tract infection
Risks and discomfort from procedures
* Blood collection: Collecting blood is normally done as part of routine
medical care and may cause some discomfort, bleeding, or bruising where the
needle enters the body. A small blood clot may form at this site or there may
be swelling in the area. Rarely, fainting or local infection may occur. Care
will be taken to prevent these events.
* High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) if requested by your study
doctor. This procedure will expose the patient to a small amount of X-rays in
order to get a picture of their lungs. The total exposure will be equivalent to
approximately 2 years of natural background radiation in the environment.
During the scan, the patient will be asked to lie very still and sometimes you
will be asked to hold your breath. The patient should not move until the images
are taken (about 15 to 30 minutes). They may feel uncomfortable from this
immobilization.
* ECG: For ECGs collected in this study, the patient will have sticky
electrodes stuck to your chest, arms, and legs. The adhesive (sticky substance)
and gel found in the electrodes and adhesive pads can be irritating to their
skin, causing redness or itching. For male subjects, the study staff may also
have to shave small areas to make sure the electrodes stick properly to your
skin.
* Blood pressure: Although it is very rare, the patient might bruise from
having your blood pressure taken. In addition, the blood pressure cuff will be
very tight and might pinch a little for a short time.
* Lung function tests (spirometry and DLCO): Lung function tests may cause
light headedness, dizziness, tiredness, coughing, or shortness of breath. The
patient may experience some general chest discomfort from the deep breaths
required to perform these tests.
* 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT): This test may cause light headedness, dizziness,
tiredness, coughing, or shortness of breath. The patient may experience some
general chest discomfort from the increased breathing required to walk for 6
minutes.
Benefit
The patient may or may not benefit from taking part in this study. If the
patient would benefit, their disease and decrease in lung function may progress
more slowly. Participating in clinical research studies like this may also give
the patient the opportunity to better understand your own disease and to have
more opportunities to talk and clarify any aspect of their disease. By
participating in this study, their condition will be closely monitored. In
addition, this study may be helpful in developing a new therapy for others with
similar illnesses.

visit and according to the minimum requirements for IPF diagnosis by central
review based on subject's HRCT only (if no LB available), or based on both HRCT
and LB (with application of the different criteria in either situation). If an
evaluable HRCT <12 months prior to screening is not available, an HRCT can be
performed at screening to determine eligibility, according to the same
requirements as the historical HRCT.
- Subjects receiving local standard of care for the treatment of IPF, defined
as either pirfenidone at a stable dose for at least two months before
screening, and during screening; or nintedanib, or neither pirfenidone or
nintedanib (for any reason). A stable dose is defined as the highest dose
tolerated by the subject during those two months.
- The extent of fibrotic changes is greater than the extent of emphysema on the
most recent HRCT scan (investigator-determined).
- Meeting all of the following criteria during the screening period: FVC * 45%
predicted of normal, Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/FVC *0.7, DLCO
corrected for Hb *30% predicted of normal.
- Estimated minimum life expectancy of at least 30 months for non IPF related
disease in the opinion of the investigator.
- Male subjects and female subjects of childbearing potential agree to use
highly effective contraception/preventive exposure measures from the time of
first dose of IMP (for the male subject) or the signing of the ICF (for the
female subject), during the study, and until 90 days (male) or 30 days (female)
after the last dose of IMP.

without having a contraindication to perform the 6MWT (see Appendix 10) or
without a condition putting the subject at risk of falling during the test
(investigator's discretion). The use of a cane is allowed, the use of a
stroller is not allowed at all for any condition. At Visit 2, for the oxygen
titration test, resting SpO2 should be *88% with maximum 6 L O2/minute; during
the walk, SpO2 should be *83% with 6 L O2/minute or *88% with 0, 2 or 4 L
O2/minute.
