Observational, Multicenter Study on the Efficacy, Tolerability, and Safety of Nintedanib in Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Older than 80 Years

Abstract

Nintedanib is effective and safe in patients with IPF aged >80 years, and no significant differences were found when clinical outcomes were compared with those of younger patients. Thus, older age should not be a barrier for the early prescription of antifibrotic treatment in IPF patients.
