Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective of this observational study is to investigate the correlation between changes from baseline at 52 weeks in forced vital capacity (FVC) and changes from baseline at 52 weeks in dyspnea score points or cough score points as measured with the pulmonary fibrosis questionnaire (L-PF) questionnaire over 52 weeks of nintedanib treatment in patients suffering from chronic fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD) with a progressive phenotype (excluding idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF)).

Study Groups

Nintedanib-treated patients

Patients diagnosed with chronic fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD) with a progressive phenotype (excluding idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF)), who did not receive previous antifibrotic treatment, received 150 milligrams (mg) of nintedanib twice daily, administered 12 hours apart, according to the approved label, for approximately 52 weeks. Participants who did not tolerate 150 mg of nintedanib switched to 100 mg twice daily.

Nintedanib

Intervention Type DRUG

150 or 100 milligrams (mg) of nintedanib, when 150 mg is not tolerated, twice daily, administered 12 hours apart, according to the approved label.
