Drug Treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a form of chronic progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease of unknown origin. Recently, nintedanib and pirfenidone demonstrated efficacy in slowing disease progression and were approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. Although numerous treatments have been evaluated in IPF, none have shown significant decreases in mortality. The objective of this study was to identify all pharmacologic treatments evaluated for IPF and analyze their efficacy via Bayesian network meta-analysis and pairwise indirect treatment comparisons. This review did not evaluate the effect of steroid therapy.. We searched MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for studies published on or before August 2014. Studies were required to contain a randomized evaluation of nonsteroidal drug therapy for treatment of IPF and be published in English. Key outcomes of interest for this analysis were pulmonary function as measured by FVC as well as all-cause and respiratory-specific death. All outcomes were analyzed via a Bayesian framework.. Our review identified 30 eligible studies that evaluated 16 unique treatments. Under both the fixed-effect and random-effect models for respiratory-specific mortality, no treatments performed better than placebo. For all-cause mortality, pirfenidone and nintedanib had effects approaching significance with credible intervals slightly crossing the null under a fixed-effect model. Notably, for respiratory-specific mortality, all-cause mortality, and decline in percent predicted FVC, nintedanib and pirfenidone were virtually indistinguishable and no clear advantage was detected.. Although two treatments have been approved for IPF on the basis of reduced decline in pulmonary function, neither one has a clear advantage on mortality outcomes.

German Guideline for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis - Update on Pharmacological Therapies 2017.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a severe and often fatal disease with a median survival of 2 - 4 years after diagnosis. Since the publication of the German IPF guideline in 2013 new treatment trials have been published, necessitating an update of the pharmacological therapy of IPF. Different from the previous guideline, the GRADE system was discarded and replaced by the Oxford evidence classification system which allows a more differentiated judgement. The following pharmacological therapies were rated not suitable for the treatment of IPF patients (recommendation A; evidence 1-b): triple therapy with prednisolone, azathioprine and acetyl-cysteine; imatinib; ambrisentan; bosentan; macitentan. A less clear but still negative recommendation (B, 1-b) was attributed to the treatment of IPF with the phosphodiesterase-5-inhibitor sildenafil and acetyl-cysteine monotherapy. In contrast to the international guideline antacid therapy as a general treatment for IPF was rated negative, based on conflicting results of recent analyses (recommendation C; evidence 4). An unanimous positive recommendation was granted for the antifibrotic drugs nintedanib and pirfenidone for the treatment of IPF (A, 1-a). For some open questions in the management of IPF patients for which firm evidence is lacking the guideline also offers recommendations based on expert consensus.. Die idiopathische Lungenfibrose (idiopathische pulmonale Fibrose, IPF) ist eine schwerwiegende Lungenerkrankung, die häufig innerhalb von zwei bis vier Jahren nach Diagnosestellung zum Tod führt. Seit Veröffentlichung der deutschen IPF-Leitlinie im Jahr 2013 liegen neue Therapiestudien vor, die eine Neubewertung der Behandlungsstrategien erfordern. Abweichend von der Vorgängerleitlinie wurde in der aktuellen Überarbeitung nicht mehr das GRADE-System sondern die Oxford Evidenzsystematik mit drei Empfehlungsgraden (A, B, C) verwendet, weil dieses System eine differenziertere Betrachtung erlaubt. Folgende Medikamente wurden mit dem Empfehlungsgrad A und dem Evidenzgrad 1-b als nicht geeignet für die Behandlung der IPF klassifiziert: Triple-Therapie aus Prednisolon, Azathioprin und Acetylcystein; Antikoagulation mit Vitamin-K-Antagonisten; Imatinib; Ambrisentan; Bosentan; Macitentan. Weniger eindeutig ist die negative Bewertung des Phosphodiesterase-5-Inhibitors Sildenafil und der Acetylcystein-Monotherapie (Empfehlungsgrad B, Evidenzgrad 2-b). Eindeutig positiv fiel die Empfehlung für Nintedanib und Pirfenidon zur Behandlung von IPF-Patienten aus (Empfehlungsgrad A, Evidenzgrad 1-a). Mit Empfehlungsgrad C und Evidenzgrad 4 wurde der generelle Einsatz von Antazida zur Behandlung der IPF als nicht zu empfehlen bewertet, da die Datenlage widersprüchlich ist; hier weicht die deutsche Leitlinie auch am deutlichsten von der internationalen Leitlinie ab. Am Ende der Leitlinie wird aus Expertensicht zu offenen Fragen in der Therapie der IPF Stellung genommen, für die bisher keine ausreichende Evidenzbasis existiert.
