About this study
Official title: Real-life-Persistence to Antifibrotic Treatments
This study will help to better understand the persistence rate to antifibrotic (AF) treatment in real life in France and to identify potential areas for improvement by investigating the factors associated with a non-persistence rate to AF treatment.
Primary objective of the study is to measure the percentage of patients still treated up to 30 months after AF treatment initiation.
- Conditions
- Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
- Being tested
- Nintedanib, Pirfenidone

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Persistence to antifibrotic (AF) treatment (measured as percentage of patients still treated up to 30 months after AF treatment initiation)
Measured: up to 30 months
Secondary outcomes (10)
AF prevalence in French population
Measured: up to 5 years
AF incidence in French population
Measured: up to 4 years
Number of AF treated patients split by indication
Indications:
- Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)
- Interstitial Lung Disease associated with Systemic Sclerosis (SSc-ILD)
- Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis (PPF)
Measured: up to 2 years
Number of patients adherent to AF treatment
In incident AF patients, percentage of days covered (PDC) will be calculated at different time point to measure the adherence to AF treatment for patients persistent to treatment at this time point.
The PDC is the ratio dividing the number of days exposed by the number of days in the period evaluated.
A PDC≥ 80% is considered as a good adherence to medication.
Measured: up to 30 months
Percentage of the target cumulative dose of treatment received by the patients
Measured: up to 30 months
Influence of factors (yes/no) associated with persistence to AF treatments
For a pre-determined list of variables (as defined in the study protocol) in incident AF patients, a multivariate time-dependant Cox model will test several covariates to check if they are associated with persistence to AF treatment.
Measured: up to 30 months
Number of patients with switch from one AF treatment to the another with no treatment stop
Measured: up to 5 years
Number of patients at site of follow-up (identified as 2 lung function tests performed in the center)
Measured: up to 5 years
Overall Survival (defined as time from index date (first reimbursement of AF treatment) to death from any cause)
Measured: up to5 years
Event-free survival
Defined as the time from index date to
- oxygenotherapy onset
- hospitalisation for respiratory exacerbations
- hospitalisation for other respiratory diseases
- ath from any cause
Measured: up to 5 years

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Persistence to antifibrotic (AF) treatment (measured as percentage of patients still treated up to 30 months after AF treatment initiation) (time frame: up to 30 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Apr 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
