Review in Therapeutic advances in musculoskeletal disease, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05799755 (Nintedanib Plus Standard of Care Immunosuppression Versus Standard of Care Immunosuppression Alone in Patients With Progressive Fibrotic Myositis Associated - Interstitial Lung Disease), which is not on this map. Cited by 12 papers.

1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Abstract

The antifibrotic therapies nintedanib and pirfenidone were first approved by the United States for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in 2014. In 2020, nintedanib received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the treatment of all progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD). Given that a major cause of mortality and morbidity in the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) is progressive interstitial lung disease and respiratory failure, antifibrotic therapies may be useful as adjuvant to traditional immunosuppression. However, randomized controlled trials of antifibrotic therapies in IIM are lacking. The purpose of this review is to (1) summarize the mechanism of action of nintedanib and pirfenidone in ILD with possible role in IIM-ILD, (2) review the clinical data supporting their use in interstitial lung disease in general, and more specifically in connective tissue disease associated ILD, and (3) discuss the evidence and remaining challenges for using antifibrotic therapies in IIM-ILD.
