Continued nintedanib in patients with systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease: 3-year data from SENSCIS-ON

RMD OpenPublished Open-label extension study of the SENSCIS randomised trial

Authors' conclusion

The safety profile of nintedanib over 148 weeks of SENSCIS-ON was consistent with that reported in SENSCIS. Changes in FVC during SENSCIS and SENSCIS-ON supported a continued effect of nintedanib on slowing the decline in lung function, but showed continued progression of SSc-ILD.

Study context

  • Continued nintedanibn = 197
