Abstract

Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive lung condition associated with high morbidity and mortality. Single-inhaler triple therapy (SITT), such as budesonide/glycopyrronium/formoterol fumarate dihydrate (BGF), is recommended for patients with COPD who are not adequately controlled by dual therapy (DT). Escalation from DT or switching from triple therapy (TT)-SITT or multiple-inhaler TT (MITT)-are key real-world treatment pathways.

Methods: The observational, retrospective, multicenter ORESTES study included adults (≥ 40 years) with COPD initiating BGF in routine clinical practice. This secondary analysis focuses on the following treatment pathways: escalation from DT and switch from TT. Patients' characteristics, exacerbations, additional COPD treatments, and healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) were assessed.

Results: A total of 295 patients escalated from DT and 356 switched from TT (SITT: 147; MITT: 209) to BGF. 66.8% of patients escalating from DT and 78.5% switching from TT showed a high-risk GesEPOC phenotype; 77.9% and 80.0% had mMRC grade ≥ 2, and 91.2% and 96.1% had ≥ 3 comorbidities. Following BGF initiation, the annualized exacerbation rate decreased by 11.6% (from 1.06 to 0.94) in patients escalating from DT and by 15.5% (from 1.60 to 1.35) in patients switching from TT (after SITT: 17.8% reduction; after MITT: 14.1%). Rescue medication use declined overall, and specifically short-acting beta-2 agonists (SABA) use declined by 23.2% and 19.4% (SITT: 21.9%; MITT: 18.4%). Emergency room visits and hospitalizations decreased by 19.7% and 19.0% in patients escalating from DT, and by 29.4% and 25.5% among those switching from TT (SITT: 25.0%/18.3%; MITT: 32.4%/29.9%).

Conclusions: In this real-world Spanish cohort of patients with COPD not adequately controlled with DT or TT, reductions in exacerbations, rescue medication use, and HCRU were observed after BGF initiation, supporting the potential value of earlier introduction of BGF in patients with persistent symptoms and/or frequent exacerbations despite high-intensity therapy.

在西班牙接受布地奈德/甘炔溴铵/富马酸福莫特罗双联或三联治疗后COPD患者的真实世界结局:ORESTES研究的一项亚研究
慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)是一种与高发病率和死亡率相关的进行性肺部疾病。单吸入器三联疗法(SITT),如布地奈德/甘炔溴铵/富马酸福莫特罗二水合物(BGF),推荐用于不能充分控制双重治疗(DT)的COPD患者。从DT升级或从三联疗法(sitt或多重吸入器TT (MITT))转换是现实世界的关键治疗途径。方法:观察性、回顾性、多中心ORESTES研究纳入了常规临床实践中COPD启动BGF的成人(≥40岁)。这一次要分析侧重于以下治疗途径:从DT升级和从TT切换。评估患者的特征、加重、额外的COPD治疗和医疗资源利用率(HCRU)。结果:共有295名患者从DT升级,356名患者从TT切换(SITT: 147; MITT: 209)到BGF。66.8%从DT升级的患者和78.5%从TT转换的患者表现出高风险的GesEPOC表型;77.9%和80.0%的患者mMRC分级≥2级,91.2%和96.1%的患者合并症≥3级。BGF启动后,从DT升级的患者的年化恶化率下降了11.6%(从1.06降至0.94),从TT切换的患者的年化恶化率下降了15.5%(从1.60降至1.35)(SITT后:减少17.8%;MITT后:减少14.1%)。救援药物的使用总体下降,特别是短效β -2激动剂(SABA)的使用下降了23.2%和19.4% (SITT: 21.9%; MITT: 18.4%)。从DT升级的患者急诊室就诊和住院次数分别减少19.7%和19.0%,从TT转换的患者分别减少29.4%和25.5% (SITT: 25.0%/18.3%; MITT: 32.4%/29.9%)。结论:在这个现实世界的西班牙慢性阻塞性肺病患者队列中,未充分使用DT或TT控制的COPD患者,在BGF开始后,病情加重、救援药物使用和HCRU均有所减少,这支持了在高强度治疗下,对持续症状和/或频繁加重的患者早期引入BGF的潜在价值。临床试验注册:NCT06321731。

期刊介绍: Aims and Scope Pulmonary Therapy is an international, open access, peer-reviewed (single-blind), and rapid publication journal. The scope of the journal is broad and will consider all scientifically sound research from pre-clinical, clinical (all phases), observational, real-world, and health outcomes research around the use of pulmonary therapies, devices, and surgical techniques. Areas of focus include, but are not limited to: asthma; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; pulmonary hypertension; cystic fibrosis; lung cancer; respiratory tract disorders; allergic rhinitis and other respiratory allergies; influenza, pneumococcal infection, respiratory syncytial virus and other respiratory infections; and inhalers and other device therapies. The journal is of interest to a broad audience of pharmaceutical and healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, case reports/series, trial protocols and short communications such as commentaries and editorials. Pulmonary Therapy will consider all scientifically sound research be it positive, confirmatory or negative data. Submissions are welcomed whether they relate to an international and/or a country-specific audience, something that is crucially important when researchers are trying to target more specific patient populations. This inclusive approach allows the journal to assist in the dissemination of quality research, which may be considered of insufficient interest by other journals. Rapid Publication The journal’s publication timelines aim for a rapid peer review of 2 weeks. If an article is accepted it will be published 3–4 weeks from acceptance. The rapid timelines are achieved through the combination of a dedicated in-house editorial team, who manage article workflow, and an extensive Editorial and Advisory Board who assist with peer review. This allows the journal to support the rapid dissemination of research, whilst still providing robust peer review. Combined with the journal’s open access model this allows for the rapid, efficient communication of the latest research and reviews, fostering the advancement of pulmonary therapies. Open Access All articles published by Pulmonary Therapy are open access. Personal Service The journal’s dedicated in-house editorial team offer a personal “concierge service” meaning authors will always have an editorial contact able to update them on the status of their manuscript. The editorial team check all manuscripts to ensure that articles conform to the most recent COPE, GPP and ICMJE publishing guidelines. This supports the publication of ethically sound and transparent research. Digital Features and Plain Language Summaries Pulmonary Therapy offers a range of additional features designed to increase the visibility, readership and educational value of the journal’s content. Each article is accompanied by key summary points, giving a time-efficient overview of the content to a wide readership. Articles may be accompanied by plain language summaries to assist readers who have some knowledge of, but not in-depth expertise in, the area to understand the scientific content and overall implications of the article. The journal also provides the option to include various types of digital features including animated abstracts, video abstracts, slide decks, audio slides, instructional videos, infographics, podcasts and animations. All additional features are peer reviewed to the same high standard as the article itself. If you consider that your paper would benefit from the inclusion of a digital feature, please let us know. Our editorial team are able to create high-quality slide decks and infographics in-house, and video abstracts through our partner Research Square, and would be happy to assist in any way we can. For further information about digital features, please contact the journal editor (see ‘Contact the Journal’ for email address), and see the ‘Guidelines for digital features and plain language summaries’ document under ‘Submission guidelines’. For examples of digital features please visit our showcase page https://springerhealthcare.com/expertise/publishing-digital-features/ Publication Fees Upon acceptance of an article, authors will be required to pay the mandatory Rapid Service Fee of €4500/ $5100/ £3650. The journal will consider fee discounts and waivers for developing countries and this is decided on a case by case basis. Peer Review Process Upon submission, manuscripts are assessed by the editorial team to ensure they fit within the aims and scope of the journal and are also checked for plagiarism. All suitable submissions are then subject to a comprehensive single-blind peer review. Reviewers are selected based on their relevant expertise and publication history in the subject area. The journal has an extensive pool of editorial and advisory board members who have been selected to assist with peer review based on the afore-mentioned criteria. At least two extensive reviews are required to make the editorial decision, with the exception of some article types such as Commentaries, Editorials, and Letters which are generally reviewed by one member of the Editorial Board. Where reviewer recommendations are conflicted, the editorial board will be contacted for further advice and a presiding decision. Manuscripts are then either accepted, rejected or authors are required to make major or minor revisions (both reviewer comments and editorial comments may need to be addressed). Once a revised manuscript is re-submitted, it is assessed along with the responses to reviewer comments and if it has been adequately revised it will be accepted for publication. Accepted manuscripts are then copyedited and typeset by the production team before online publication. Appeals against decisions following peer review are considered on a case-by-case basis and should be sent to the journal editor. Preprints We encourage posting of preprints of primary research manuscripts on preprint servers, authors’ or institutional websites, and open communications between researchers whether on community preprint servers or preprint commenting platforms. Posting of preprints is not considered prior publication and will not jeopardize consideration in our journals. Authors should disclose details of preprint posting during the submission process or at any other point during consideration in one of our journals. Once the manuscript is published, it is the author’s responsibility to ensure that the preprint record is updated with a publication reference, including the DOI and a URL link to the published version of the article on the journal website.
