NCT ID: NCT04559581

Last Updated: 2026-02-06

Results Overview

Incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) is reported as the number of participants with an ADR. An adverse event (AE) was considered to be an ADR if either the physician who reported the AE, or the sponsor, assessed its causal relationship as 'related'.

Recruitment status

COMPLETED

Target enrollment

425 participants

Primary outcome timeframe

From first intake of Ofev Capsules prescribed at baseline visit and within 28 days (inclusive) after the last intake of Ofev Capsules, up to approximately 204 weeks.

Participant Flow

This was a non-interventional study based on newly collected data of patients under routine care to confirm safety of Ofev Capsules (nintedanib) in the real-world setting in Japanese patients with Progressive Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease.

All subjects were screened for eligibility prior to participation in the trial. Subjects attended a specialist site which ensured that they (the subjects) strictly met all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria. Subjects were not to be allocated to a treatment group if any of the entry criteria were violated. 425 patients were registered, Case Report Forms were collected for 409, and 1 was registered twice, so 408 patients started the treatment.
