idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis/vomiting

Nintedanib (Ofev(®)) inhibits receptor tyrosine kinases implicated in the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This article reviews the efficacy and tolerability of oral nintedanib in the treatment of IPF, as well as summarizing its pharmacological properties. In the randomized,

We assessed safety and tolerability of treatment with pirfenidone (1602-2403 mg·day-1) and nintedanib (200-300 mg·day-1) in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).This 24-week, single-arm, open-label, phase IV study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02598193) enrolled patients with IPF

To investigate the efficacy and safety of nintedanib versus placebo in Chinese patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).

The INPULSIS^® trials consisted of two replicate, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trials

BACKGROUND Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive and fatal lung disease with inevitable loss of lung function. The CAPACITY programme (studies 004 and 006) was designed to confirm the results of a phase 2 study that suggested that pirfenidone, a novel antifibrotic and anti-inflammatory

BACKGROUND Pirfenidone is an oral antifibrotic agent that has been shown to reduce the decline in lung function in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). We performed an integrated analysis of safety data from five clinical trials evaluating pirfenidone in patients with IPF. METHODS All

A global evidence-based consensus has defined gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) as 'a condition, which develops when the reflux of stomach contents causes troublesome symptoms and/or complications.' The manifestations of GERD can be divided into esophageal and extraesophageal syndromes, and

Aspiration of foreign matter into the airways and lungs can cause a wide spectrum of pulmonary disorders with various presentations. The type of syndrome resulting from aspiration depends on the quantity and nature of the aspirated material, the chronicity, and the host responses. Aspiration is most

Nintedanib (Ofev™), an oral triple kinase inhibitor targeting pro-fibrotic pathways, has been used for treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Based on positive results from phase III, placebo-controlled, randomized comparative clinical trial conducted in patients with systemic

BACKGROUND Pirfenidone, an oral anti-inflammatory, antifibrotic agent with activity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, may mediate anti-tumor activity in neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and plexiform neurofibromas (PN) by inhibition of fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis. The primary
