Study description

The main objective of this post-authorization effectiveness study is to assess the long-term effectiveness of Ofev® on a composite outcome of time to forced vital capacity (FVC) decline, lung transplantation (indicating end-stage ILD), or mortality, in addition, to other outcomes of interest in patients with SSc-ILD using data from the EUSTAR registry. The primary study objectives will be to assess long-term treatment effectiveness of Ofev® based on a composite outcome of time to FVC decline, time to lung transplantation, or death. The secondary study objectives will be: - To assess long-term treatment effectiveness of Ofev® based on FVC decline, - To assess long-term treatment effectiveness of Ofev® based on time to lung transplantation (indicating end-stage ILD), - To assess long-term treatment effectiveness of Ofev® based on time to death, - To assess patterns of disease progression based on changes in FVC decline (overall and by treatment group) in patients with SSc-ILD, - To assess effects of other concomitant or previous therapies on a composite outcome of FVC decline, time to lung transplantation, or death (this does not correspond to an outcome but will be incorporated into the analyses), - To assess long-term effect of Ofev® on quality of life (QoL), - To assess the safety and effectiveness profile of Ofev® in the subset of patients with a diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) at baseline, and - To assess the incidence rates of 1) major bleeding (defined as requiring intervention or hospitalization), 2) gastrointestinal perforation, 3) thromboembolism (arterial or venous) by treatment group.
