The benefits and risks of anti-acid medication in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) remain a topic of debate. We investigated whether use of anti-acid medication at baseline was associated with differences in the natural course of disease or influenced the treatment effect of nintedanib in patients with IPF.
Post-hoc analyses of outcomes in patients receiving versus not receiving anti-acid medication (proton pump or histamine-2 receptor inhibitor) at baseline using pooled data from the two Phase III randomized placebo-controlled INPULSIS® trials of nintedanib in patients with IPF.
At baseline, 406 patients were receiving anti-acid medication (244 nintedanib; 162 placebo) and 655 were not (394 nintedanib; 261 placebo). In an analysis of the natural course of IPF by anti-acid medication use at baseline, the adjusted annual rate of decline in FVC was - 252.9 mL/year in placebo-treated patients who were receiving anti-acid medication at baseline and - 205.4 mL/year in placebo-treated patients who were not (difference of - 47.5 mL/year [95% CI: -105.1, 10.1]; p = 0.1057). In an analysis of the potential influence of anti-acid medication use on the treatment effect of nintedanib, the adjusted annual rates of decline in FVC were - 124.4 mL/year in the nintedanib group and - 252.9 mL/year in the placebo group (difference of 128.6 mL/year [95% CI: 74.9, 182.2]) in patients who were receiving anti-acid medication at baseline and - 107.0 mL/year in the nintedanib group and - 205.3 mL/year in the placebo group (difference of 98.3 mL/year [95% CI: 54.1, 142.5]) in patients who were not (treatment-by-time-by-subgroup interaction p = 0.3869). The proportions of patients who had ≥1 investigator-reported acute exacerbation were 11.7% and 5.0% in placebo-treated patients, and 4.9% and 4.8% of nintedanib-treated patients, among patients who were and were not receiving anti-acid medication at baseline, respectively.
In post-hoc analyses of data from the INPULSIS® trials, anti-acid medication use at baseline was not associated with a more favorable course of disease, and did not impact the treatment effect of nintedanib, in patients with IPF.

抗酸药物在特发性肺纤维化(IPF)患者中的获益和风险仍是一个有争议的话题。我们研究了基线时使用抗酸药物是否与疾病自然病程的差异有关,或是否影响 IPF 患者尼达尼布的治疗效果。
使用尼达尼布治疗 IPF 的两项 III 期随机安慰剂对照 INPULSIS®试验的汇总数据,对基线时接受(质子泵或组胺 2 受体抑制剂)或不接受抗酸药物治疗的患者的结局进行事后分析。
基线时,406 名患者正在接受抗酸药物治疗(244 名尼达尼布;162 名安慰剂),655 名患者未接受抗酸药物治疗(394 名尼达尼布;261 名安慰剂)。在基线时使用抗酸药物治疗的 IPF 自然病程分析中,接受安慰剂治疗且基线时正在接受抗酸药物治疗的患者的 FVC 年下降率为-252.9 mL/年,而未接受安慰剂治疗且基线时未接受抗酸药物治疗的患者的 FVC 年下降率为-205.4 mL/年(差异为-47.5 mL/年[95%CI:-105.1,10.1];p=0.1057)。在分析抗酸药物使用对尼达尼布治疗效果的潜在影响时,接受尼达尼布治疗的患者的 FVC 年下降率为-124.4 mL/年,接受安慰剂治疗的患者的 FVC 年下降率为-252.9 mL/年(差异为 128.6 mL/年[95%CI:74.9,182.2]),而基线时接受抗酸药物治疗的患者的 FVC 年下降率为-107.0 mL/年,接受安慰剂治疗的患者的 FVC 年下降率为-205.3 mL/年(差异为 98.3 mL/年[95%CI:54.1,142.5])。在基线时接受或不接受抗酸药物治疗的患者中,接受尼达尼布治疗的患者中有≥1 例研究者报告的急性加重的比例分别为 11.7%和 5.0%,接受安慰剂治疗的患者分别为 4.9%和 4.8%。
在 INPULSIS®试验数据的事后分析中,基线时使用抗酸药物与疾病更有利的病程无关,也不影响 IPF 患者尼达尼布的治疗效果。
