Refractory and/or unexplained chronic cough

Clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of three different doses of BAY1817080 compared to placebo in patients with chronic cough

Trial purpose

Researchers in this study want to find the optimal therapeutic dose of drug BAY1817080 for patients with long-standing cough with or without clear causes (refractory and/or unexplained chronic cough, RUCC). Study drug BAY1817080 is a new drug under development for the treatment of long-standing cough. It blocks proteins that are expressed by the airway sensory nerves which are oversensitive in patients with long-standing cough. This prevents the urge to cough. Researchers also want to learn the safety of the study drug and how well it works in reducing the cough frequency, severity and urge-to-cough.
Participants in this study will receive either the study drug or placebo (a placebo looks like the test drug but does not have any medicine in it) tablets twice daily for 12 weeks. Observation for each participant will last about 18 weeks in total. Participants will be asked to wear a digital device to record the cough and to complete questionnaires every day to document the symptoms. Blood samples will be collected from the participants to monitor the safety and measure the blood level of the study drug.

Primary Outcome

  • Change from baseline in 24-hour cough count after 12 weeks of intervention
    Measured by cough recording digital wearable monitoring device. btw = between geo = geometric Per protocol set (PPS): All participants randomly assigned to study intervention who did not have validity findings affecting efficacy. Participants were analyzed according to the intervention they actually received. If a participant received different interventions during the study, he/she was excluded from the PPS. The main reasons for excluding the participants from the PPS were that there was no valid post-baseline measurement available due to an intercurrent event (15 participants , 4.8%) or that the participant had used prohibited concomitant medication (9 participants , 2.9%).
