Brief summary (registry, in English)

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.

  • Diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) (other than IPF), as registered in electronic medical records (EMR) using free text or international statistical classification of diseases and related health problems (ICD) codes (ICD-9 and/or ICD-10), at least 1 day before diarrhoea initiation.
  • Being treated with 150 milligram (mg) bid of nintedanib when initiating diarrhoea symptoms, defined as having a nintedanib anatomical therapeutic chemical (ATC) code (L01EX09) or the molecule/commercial name registered in the EMR, for at least 1 day before diarrhoea initiation.
