The Effect of Nintedanib in Post-COVID-19 Lung Fibrosis: An Observational Study.
Background: Lung fibrosis is a sequela of COVID-19 among patients with severe pneumonia. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and lung fibrosis due to COVID-19 may share many similar features. There are limited data on effects of antifibrotic treatment of infection-related lung fibrosis. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of nintedanib on patients' post-COVID-19 lung fibrosis.
Methods: A retrospective, matched case-control study was performed on hospitalized patients with COVID-19 pneumonia. Patients who received nintedanib treatment for COVID-19 pulmonary fibrosis (nintedanib group) were compared to patients with standard treatment (control group). The primary outcome was oxygen improvement. The secondary outcomes were chest X-ray improvement, SpO2/FiO2 ratio improvement, mortality rates at 60 days, and adverse events.
Results: A total of 42 patients with COVID-19 pneumonia were included (21 in each group). Mean age was 64.43 ± 14.59 years, and 54.8% were men. At baseline, SpO2/FiO2 ratio before treatment was 200.57 ± 105.77 in the nintedanib group and 326.90 ± 137.10 in the control group (P = 0.002). Oxygen improvement and chest X-ray improvement were found in 71.4% and 71.4% in the nintedanib group and in 66.7% and 66.7% in the control group (P = 0.739). The nintedanib group had more improvement in SpO2/FiO2 ratio than in the control group (144.38 ± 118.05 vs 55.67 ± 75.09, P = 0.006). The 60-day mortality rates of the nintedanib and the control groups were 38.1% vs 23.8%, P = 0.317. Hepatitis and loss of appetite were common adverse events (9.5% and 9.5%), while the incidence of diarrhea was 4.8%.
Conclusions: Nintedanib as add-on treatment in post-COVID-19 lung fibrosis did not improve oxygenation, chest X-ray findings, or the 60-day mortality. However, this antifibrotic drug improved SpO2/FiO2 ratio in our patients. Further randomized controlled trials are needed to determine the efficacy of nintedanib for treatment of patients with post-COVID-19 lung fibrosis. Trial Registration. This study was registered in TCTR20220426001.
