Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. Patient >40 years
2. Written informed consent signed prior to entry into the study
3. IPF diagnosed (according to ATS / ERS criteria) less than 5 years prior to screening visit.
4. HRCT within 12 months of randomisation and biopsy (the latter if needed to fulfil ATS/ERS criteria) centrally reviewed and consistent with diagnosis.
5. FVC>50 % of predicted value

Predicted normal values will be calculated according to ESCS (R94-1408):

Males :

FVC predicted (L) = 5.76 x height (meters)- 0.026 x age (years) -4.34

Females :

FVC predicted (L) = 4.43 x height (meters)- 0.026 x age (years) -2.89
6. Single breath DLCO (corrected for Hb) 30 - 79% inclusive of predicted .

Different sites may use different prediction formulas, based on the method used to measure DLco. In any case, the method used must be in compliance with the ATS/ERS guideline on DLCO measurements (R06-2002), and the prediction formula appropriate for that method. Raw data (gas mixture, equation used for prediction of normal, further adjustments made if so) must be traced.

Adjustment for haemoglobin (R06-2002):

Males :

DLCO predicted for Hb = DLCO predicted x (1.7Hb/[10.22+Hb])

Females :

DLCO predicted for Hb = DLCO predicted x (1.7Hb/[9.38+Hb]) where Hb is expressed in g/dL-1
7. PaO2 >= 55 mmHg (sea level to 1500 m) or 50 mmHg (above 1500 m) room air
Minimum age
40 Years
Maximum age
No limit
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No

* Unstable angina during the previous month

14. Pregnant women or women who are breast feeding or of child bearing potential not using a highly effective method of birth control for at least one month prior to enrolment.

16. Known or suspected active alcohol or drug abuse.
17. Bleeding risk : Known inherited predisposition to bleeding, patients who require full-dose anticoagulation, Patients who require full-dose antiplatelet therapy, History of hemorrhagic CNS event within 12 months prior to screening , Any of the following within 3 months prior to screening : Gross / frank haemoptysis or haematuria, Active gastro-intestinal bleeding or ulcers, Major injury or surgery

Summary
Brief summary
The general purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of 4 dose strategies of BIBF 1120 treatment for 12 months, compared to placebo in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate whether at least one dose strategy is superior to placebo in patients with IPF, in modifying the rate of decline of Forced Vital Capacity (FVC).

As a secondary objective, additional parameters will be assessed in order to differentiate between dose strategies on the basis of safety and efficacy
