In patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA)-related interstitial lung disease (ILD), combination therapy with disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) does not negatively influence the safety and efficacy of nintedanib, reports a study. The main drivers of drug withdrawal or dose reduction in these individuals are adverse events (AEs), primarily due to comorbidities.
