  • Ofev Plus Sildenafil Isn’t Effective for IPF Patients with Poor Lung Function

    Combining Ofev (nintedanib, marketed by Boehringer Ingelheim) with sildenafil does not offer additional clinical benefits when compared to Ofev treatment alone regarding quality of life and lung function in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and a very poor lung function, a Phase 3 study demonstrates.

    The study, “Nintedanib plus Sildenafil in Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis,” was published in the The New England Journal of Medicine.

    Read a summary of the Phase 3 study and its findings here.
