Study Summary

The AC-055B201/MUSIC study is a Phase II study, comparing one dose of ACT-064922 (macitentan) 10 mg with placebo in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The main study objective is to demonstrate that macitentan positively affects the forced vital capacity (FVC) in comparison with placebo in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The secondary objectives are to evaluate the effect of macitentan on the time to disease worsening or death in patients with IPF, and to evaluate the benefit/risk profile of macitentan in the treatment of patients with IPF.

Primary Outcome

FVC was measured at baseline and at the end of Period 1. The same equipment and tester were used during the course of the study. The equipment was calibrated and the calibration documented prior to each patient's measurement. The person responsible for conducting the pulmonary function tests was required to comply with the study guidelines and the American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society joint criteria on lung function testing.
