Effect of nintedanib on progression of interstitial lung disease (ild) in patients with autoimmune disease-related ilds: further data from the inbuild trial
ANNALS OF THE RHEUMATIC DISEASES(2020)
Abstract
Background: In the INBUILD trial in patients with progressive fibrosing ILDs, nintedanib reduced the rate of decline in forced vital capacity (FVC) versus placebo over 52 weeks both in the overall population and in the subgroup with autoimmune disease-related ILDs. Patients continued blinded randomised treatment until the end of the trial. Objectives: Assess the effects of nintedanib on the risks of death, acute exacerbation of ILD or death, and disease progression or death over the whole INBUILD trial in patients with autoimmune disease-related ILDs and a progressive phenotype. Methods: Patients with progressive fibrosing ILDs other than idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) were randomised to receive nintedanib 150 mg bid or placebo. Time to i) death, ii) first acute exacerbation of ILD or death, and iii) disease progression (absolute decline in FVC ≥10% predicted) or death, over the whole trial were analysed in patients with autoimmune disease-related ILDs. Incidence rates of adverse events per 100 patient–years were calculated based on events with onset between the first trial drug intake and the last intake plus 28 days. Analyses were descriptive. Results: Of 663 patients, 170 (82 nintedanib, 88 placebo) had autoimmune disease-related ILDs (89 RA-ILD, 39 SSc-ILD, 19 MCTD-ILD, 23 other autoimmune ILDs including Sjogren’s disease-related ILD [n=7], interstitial pneumonia with autoimmune features [n=5] and undifferentiated CTD-ILD [n=3]). Over the whole trial, in the nintedanib and placebo groups, respectively, mean (SD) exposure to drug was 15.4 (7.4) and 16.9 (6.1) months and maximum exposure was 26.0 and 25.2 months; 62 (75.6%) and 68 (77.3%) patients in these groups, respectively, completed the planned observation time. Over the whole trial, in the nintedanib and placebo groups, respectively, 9.8% and 12.5% of patients died, 12.2% and 20.5% of patients had ≥1 acute exacerbation of ILD or died, and 40.2% and 53.4% of patients had disease progression or died (Table). Diarrhoea was the most common adverse event, with incidence rates of 139.2 and 26.3 events per 100 patient–years in the nintedanib and placebo groups, respectively. Adverse events led to treatment discontinuation in 20.7% of patients in the nintedanib group and 13.6% of patients in the placebo group. Conclusion: Data from the INBUILD trial suggest that nintedanib has a clinically meaningful effect on slowing the progression of ILD in patients with progressive fibrosing autoimmune disease-related ILDs, with adverse events that can be tolerated by most patients.
