INCHANGE - Nintedanib for Changes in Cough and Dyspnea in Patients Suffering From Chronic Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease With a Progressive Phenotype in Everyday Clinical Practice: a Real-world Evaluation

Boehringer Ingelheim158 enrolled

Overview

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the correlation between changes from baseline to 52 weeks in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) \[% pred.\] and changes from baseline to 52 weeks in dyspnea score \[points\] or cough score \[points\] as measured with the living with pulmonary fibrosis (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)).

Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with contraindications according to Summary of product characteristics (SmPC) * Prior use of any antifibrotic treatment * Lack of informed consent * Pregnant or lactating females * Any physician diagnosed exacerbation of Interstitial lung disease (ILD) in the patient's history file, irrespective of time since event * Current diagnosis of lung cancer * Respiratory failure (pH \< 7,35 and/ or respiratory rate \> 30/min) in the patient's history * Participation in a parallel interventional clinical trial * Patients being spouse or lateral relatives to the second degree or economically dependent from the investigator

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Correlation between change from baseline to week 52 in Forced vital capacity (FVC) [% pred.] and change from baseline to week 52 in dyspnea symptom score

The "living with pulmonary fibrosis" (L-PF) questionnaire for dyspnea/cough symptom score consists of 44 items divided into two modules: Symptoms (23 items) and Impacts (21 items). The Symptoms module assesses shortness of breath (dyspnea), cough and fatigue over the last 24 hours. The Impacts module assesses multiple aspects of health related quality of life (HRQoL) over the last 7 days. Symptoms and Impacts scores are used to calculate a total score. •Items in both modules have response options on a five-option numeric rating score with an anchor of 0 "Not at all" to 4 "Extremely". Overall scores range from 0 to 100, with higher numbers indicating a greater impairment.

Time frame: Up to week 52
