A Study Based on Medical Records in Spain That Looks at Diarrhoea Control in People With Pulmonary Fibrosis Who Are Taking Nintedanib

Completed
Conditions
Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Diarrhoea
Registration Number
NCT06200714
Lead Sponsor
Boehringer Ingelheim
Brief Summary

This is an observational, non-interventional, and prospective post authorization safety study (PASS) that will describe the real-world proportion of patients that achieve nintedanib-associated diarrhoea control after 12 weeks of follow-up, in hospital settings in Spain. It will include outpatients (i.e., those attending ambulatory visits) with interstitial lung diseases (IPF) and other progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) treated with nintedanib (150 mg bid) and having a first episode of diarrhoea after nintedanib initiation.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Achievement of diarrhoea control (yes/no)Up to 12 weeks

Achievement of diarrhoea control (yes/no), defined as the passage of less than 3 loose or liquid stools in a 24-hour period (loose or liquid stools defined as stools with a Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) of 6 or 7 points while being treated with 150 mg bid of nintedanib, at 12-week follow-up.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Absolute change in the proportion of patients taking optimal nintedanib dose (150 mg bid) at 12- week follow-up referent to diarrhoea initiationUp to 12 weeks
Absolute change in number of stools per day at 12- week follow-up referent to diarrhoea initiationUp to 12 weeks
Proportion of patients using carob flour for the treatment of nintedanib-associated diarrhoea at any time from diarrhoea initiation to 12-week follow-upUp to 12 weeks
Number of patients per treatment category for nintedanib-associated diarrhoea at diarrhoea initiationUp to 12 weeks

Treatment categories of nintedanib-associated diarrhoea could include pharmacological treatments (e.g., loperamide) or non-pharmacological treatment (e.g., carob flour, zinc, probiotics, other dietary interventions, hydration)

Absolute change in Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) score at week 12 follow-up referent to diarrhoea initiationUp to 12 weeks
Absolute change in current body weight (in kilograms) at 12-week follow-up referent to diarrhoea initiationUp to 12 weeks
Number of patients per treatment category for nintedanib-associated diarrhoea at 12-week follow-upUp to 12 weeks

Treatment categories of nintedanib-associated diarrhoea could include harmacological treatments (e.g., loperamide) or non-pharmacological treatment (e.g., carob flour, zinc, probiotics, other dietary interventions, hydration).

Occurrence of permanent withdrawal, defined as discontinuing 150 mg bid or 100 mg bid of nintedanib and not reintroducing it before the 12- week follow-up)Up to 12 weeks
Occurrence of at least one dose reduction (yes/no), defined as reduction of nintedanib dose from 150 mg bid to 100 mg bid, from diarrhoea initiation to 12-week follow-upUp to 12 weeks
Occurrence of at least one dose escalation (yes/no), defined as an increase of nintedanib dose from 100 mg bid to 150 mg bid from diarrhoea initiation to 12-week follow-upUp to 12 weeks
