NCT00786201

Brief Summary

The experimental drug CNTO 888 is currently being studied in cancer patients with solid tumors and this study is the first to use this drug for patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This study tests the safety and effectiveness of CNTO 888 compared to placebo. The purpose of this research study is to determine if CNTO 888 is safe and to determine its effects (good and bad) on patients with IPF. The study will be conducted at approximately 28 sites globally. Patients can remain on usual, accepted treatment for IPF while enrolled in the study. Participating in other experimental studies or taking other experimental medications while participating in this study will not be allowed.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of Percent Change (Relative to Baseline per 4 Week Interval) in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) Through Week 52

    The FVC is one component of pulmonary function testing, done with a spirometer.

    Baseline through Week 52

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Time to Disease Progression

    Baseline through Week 52

  • Absolute Change From Baseline in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) at Week 52

    Baseline through Week 52

  • Relative Change From Baseline in Diffusing Capacity of the Lung for Carbon Monoxide (DLCO) at Week 52

    Baseline through Week 52

  • Change From Baseline in St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) Total Score at Week 52

    Baseline through Week 52

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) \>= (greater than or equal to) 50% of the predicted value at screening
  • Abnormal lung function test results that include evidence of restriction and impaired gas exchange, or evidence of desaturation at rest or exercise or decreased diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO)
  • Bibasilar reticular abnormalities with minimal ground-glass opacities on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scans
  • Have surgical lung biopsy evidence of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and/or HRCT scan-based diagnosis of IPF
  • Relative decrease of \>= 10% in forced vital capacity (FVC), or relative decrease of \>= 15% in DLCO, or evidence of clinically significant worsening on HRCT (eg, development of honeycombing, increase in opacities), or significant worsening of dyspnea at rest or with exertion.

You may not qualify if:

  • Have evidence of interstitial pneumonia other than IPF
  • Diagnosis of IPF is not confirmed by HRCT or lung biopsy results
  • Partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) \< 55 mmHg (sea level) or 50 mmHg (altitude) at rest on room air
  • Have a diagnosis of other significant respiratory disorder (eg, asthma, tuberculosis (TB), sarcoidosis, aspergillosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease \[COPD\], or cystic fibrosis)
  • Have obstruction on prebronchodilator pulmonary function tests (PFTs) (defined as FEV1/FVC \< 0.7) at screening or demonstrate an increase in FEV1 \>= 12% postbronchodilator.
