Brief summary

This active surveillance aims to collect the safety data of 100 NSCLC patients treated with nintedanib per the approved Indian label within 2 years from the date of commercial availability of the drug in India (23rd January 2017). The objective is to look at the safety of nintedanib in the real world setting.

An Adverse Event (AE) was considered as an Adverse drug reaction (ADR) if either the physician who reported the AE or the sponsor assessed its causal relationship as 'related'. The incidence rate were calculated using number of patients with respective events divided by time at risk expressed as \[100 pt -yrs\].

All Adverse Events (AEs) that occurred between the first intake of nintedanib plus docetaxel and within 28 days (inclusive) after the last intake were considered 'treatment emergent'. The incidence rate were calculated using number of patients with respective events divided by time at risk expressed as \[100 pt -yrs\].

Recruitment details

An active surveillance to monitor the real-world safety in Indian patients prescribed nintedanib as per approved Indian Label for the treatment of locally advanced, metastatic or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) of adenocarcinoma tumour histology after first-line chemotherapy.

Pre-assignment details

All subjects were screened for eligibility prior to participation in the trial. Subjects attended a specialist site which ensured that they (the subjects) strictly met all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria. Subjects were not to be allocated to a treatment group if any of the entry criteria were violated.

Incidence of All Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) in Nintedanib and Docetaxel Treated Patients

Incidence of all Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in nintedanib and docetaxel treated patients. An Adverse Event (AE) was considered as an Adverse drug reaction (ADR) if either the physician who reported the AE or the sponsor assessed its causal relationship as 'related'. The incidence rate were calculated using number of patients with respective events divided by time at risk expressed as \[100 pt -yrs\].

Time frame: From first drug administration until 28 days after the last drug administration, up to 586 days.

Population: Only patients who were treated with nintedanib and docetaxel and were included in the treated set (TS).~TS: all patients who signed the informed consent form (ICF), met the eligibility criteria and had take at least one dose of study medication.~Results are reported for overall nintedanib and doxetaxel group. According to the protcol, it was not planned to compare all 3 groups of nintedanib and docetaxel.
