Title: Miscellaneous Rheumatic & Inflammatory Diseases Poster II: Sarcoidosis, Interstitial Lung Disease, & Inflammatory Eye Disease

Session Type: Poster Session C

Session Time: 9:00AM-11:00AM

Background/Purpose: In the randomized placebo-controlled INBUILD trial in patients with chronic fibrosing ILDs with a progressive phenotype, nintedanib reduced the rate of decline in forced vital capacity (FVC) over 52 weeks, with an adverse event profile characterized mainly by gastrointestinal events. We analyzed the effects of nintedanib on categorical changes in FVC in the subgroup of patients with autoimmune disease-related ILDs.

Methods: The INBUILD trial enrolled patients with a fibrosing ILD other than idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, reticular abnormality with traction bronchiectasis (with or without honeycombing) of >10% extent on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), FVC ≥45% predicted, and DLco ≥30%–< 80% predicted. To be eligible to participate, patients had to meet protocol-specified criteria for progression of ILD within the 24 months before screening despite management as deemed appropriate in clinical practice. In the subgroup of patients with autoimmune disease-related ILDs, we analyzed absolute changes from baseline in FVC (mL) and FVC % predicted at week 52, and the proportions of patients with categorical declines in FVC % predicted at week 52 (analyzed using a worst observation carried forward approach).

Results: The subgroup with autoimmune disease-related ILDs comprised 170 patients (Table 1). At baseline, mean (SD) FVC was 69.6 (15.1) % predicted in the nintedanib group and 72.1 (14.6) % predicted in the placebo group. Mean (SE) absolute changes from baseline in FVC were -92.7 (29.1) mL in the nintedanib group and -185.7 (27.3) mL in the placebo group (difference 93.0 [95% CI 14.1, 172.0]). Mean (SE) absolute changes from baseline in FVC % predicted were -2.7 (0.9) in the nintedanib group and -6.0 (0.8) in the placebo group (difference 3.3 [95% CI 0.9, 5.6]). The proportions of patients with absolute and relative declines in FVC >5% predicted or >10% predicted at week 52 were numerically lower in the nintedanib group than in the placebo group (Table 2).

Conclusion: In patients with progressive fibrosing autoimmune disease-related ILDs, the proportions of patients with categorical declines in FVC % predicted supported an effect of nintedanib in slowing the progression of ILD.

All abstracts accepted to ACR Convergence are under media embargo once the ACR has notified presenters of their abstract’s acceptance. They may be presented at other meetings or published as manuscripts after this time but should not be discussed in non-scholarly venues or outlets. The following embargo policies are strictly enforced by the ACR.

Accepted abstracts are made available to the public online in advance of the meeting and are published in a special online supplement of our scientific journal, Arthritis & Rheumatology. Information contained in those abstracts may not be released until the abstracts appear online. In an exception to the media embargo, academic institutions, private organizations, and companies with products whose value may be influenced by information contained in an abstract may issue a press release to coincide with the availability of an ACR abstract on the ACR website. However, the ACR continues to require that information that goes beyond that contained in the abstract (e.g., discussion of the abstract done as part of editorial news coverage) is under media embargo until 10:00 AM ET on November 14, 2024. Journalists with access to embargoed information cannot release articles or editorial news coverage before this time. Editorial news coverage is considered original articles/videos developed by employed journalists to report facts, commentary, and subject matter expert quotes in a narrative form using a variety of sources (e.g., research, announcements, press releases, events, etc.).

Violation of this policy may result in the abstract being withdrawn from the meeting and other measures deemed appropriate. Authors are responsible for notifying colleagues, institutions, communications firms, and all other stakeholders related to the development or promotion of the abstract about this policy. If you have questions about the ACR abstract embargo policy, please contact ACR abstracts staff at [email protected].
