Title: Miscellaneous Rheumatic & Inflammatory Disease Poster I: Fibroinflammatory & Granulomatous Disorders & Therapies

Session Type: Poster Session (Sunday)

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

Background/Purpose: Some patients with autoimmune disease develop progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD) characterized by increasing fibrosis on HRCT, decline in lung function, worsening symptoms and high mortality. Nintedanib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has established efficacy and safety in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and is an approved treatment for IPF. Recently nintedanib was shown to reduce the rate of decline in lung function in patients with systemic sclerosis-associated ILD. The efficacy and safety of nintedanib in patients with chronic fibrosing ILDs with a progressive phenotype are being investigated in the INBUILD trial. Here we describe the subgroup of patients with autoimmune disease-related ILDs enrolled in this trial.

Methods: Patients with a physician-diagnosed ILD other than IPF were eligible to participate in the INBUILD trial if they had features of diffuse fibrosing lung disease of >10% extent on HRCT, forced vital capacity (FVC) ≥45% predicted, diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLco) ≥30–< 80% predicted, and met ≥1 of 4 criteria for ILD progression (Table) in the 24 months before screening, despite treatment of ILDs in clinical practice as applicable. Patients were randomized to receive nintedanib 150 mg bid or placebo double-blind. Randomization was stratified by HRCT pattern (usual interstitial pneumonia [UIP]-like fibrotic pattern only or other fibrotic patterns). The primary endpoint is the annual rate of decline in FVC (mL/year) assessed over 52 weeks.

Results: Of 663 patients in the trial, 171 (25.8%) had autoimmune disease-related ILDs, of which the most common were rheumatoid arthritis-associated ILD (RA-ILD) (n=88), systemic sclerosis-associated ILD (n=40), and mixed connective tissue disease ILD (n=20) (Table). At baseline, the mean±SD age of patients with autoimmune ILDs was 64.3±10.6 years, FVC was 70.8±14.8% predicted and DLco was 49.1±19.0% predicted; about half had a relative decline in FVC ≥10% predicted in the 24 months before screening. Almost three-quarters of patients with autoimmune ILDs (74.3%) had a UIP-like fibrotic pattern only on HRCT. This pattern was most common in patients with RA-ILD (87.5%). The trial is ongoing.

Conclusion: The INBUILD trial will provide insights into the efficacy and safety of nintedanib in patients with progressive fibrosing ILDs, including those with autoimmune diseases. The results will be presented at the conference.

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].
