The LUME-Lung3 study is in 2 parts:
Run-in Phase I - Open label study to identify the Maximum Tolerated Dose of BIBF 1120 that can be added to standard first-line treatment with 3 weekly schedules of gemcitabine and cisplatin.
Phase II - Placebo controlled efficacy study of BIBF 1120 added to standard 3 weekly cycles of gemcitabine and cisplatin therapy in patients with at least Stable Disease after 2 previous courses of the chemotherapy

- Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) During First Cycle for the Determination of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) [ Time Frame: Up to 21 days from first drug administration ]The following drug-related adverse events (AEs) qualified as a DLT: Non-hematological toxicity - Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade ≥3 events excluding transient electrolyte abnormality, hyperuricemia and isolated elevation of gamma-glutamyl trans-peptidase. Gastrointestinal AEs (nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain) or hypertension of CTCAE Grade ≥3 despite optimal supportive care/intervention. Alanine aminotransferase and or Aspartate aminotransferase elevation of CTCAE Grade ≥3. Haematological toxicity - Uncomplicated CTCAE Grade 4 neutropenia (that was not associated with fever of ≥38.5° Celsius) for >7 days (except during Cycle 1). CTCAE Grade 4 febrile neutropenia associated with fever ≥38.5º Celsius. A decrease in platelet levels to CTCAE Grade 4 or CTCAE Grade 3 associated with bleeding or requiring transfusion. The inability to resume nintedanib dosing within 14 days of stopping due to a drug-related AE was also considered a DLT.
- Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Nintedanib Added to Cisplatin/Gemcitabine Based on the Occurrence of DLTs During Treatment Cycle 1. [ Time Frame: Up to 21 days from first drug administration ]The MTD was defined as the dose of nintedanib administered with gemcitabine/cisplatin at which no more than 1 of 6 patients experienced DLT (or one dose tier below that dose at which 2 or more of 6 patients experienced DLT) during the first 21-day treatment cycle. Any DLTs experienced after the start of the second treatment period were considered separately.
- Incidence of Adverse Events (AEs) According to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 3.00 [ Time Frame: From the first drug administration until 28 days after last study drug administration, up to 804 days ]Incidence of adverse events (AEs) according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 3.00 with grade 1-5.
