Abstract
OBJECTIVES: Some patients with rheumatoid arthritis develop interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) that develops into progressive pulmonary fibrosis. We assessed the efficacy and safety of nintedanib versus placebo in patients with progressive RA-ILD in the INBUILD trial. METHODS: The INBUILD trial enrolled patients with fibrosing ILD (reticular abnormality with traction bronchiectasis, with or without honeycombing) on high-resolution computed tomography of >10% extent. Patients had shown progression of pulmonary fibrosis within the prior 24 months, despite management in clinical practice. Subjects were randomised to receive nintedanib or placebo. RESULTS: In the subgroup of 89 patients with RA-ILD, the rate of decline in FVC over 52 weeks was -82.6 mL/year in the nintedanib group versus -199.3 mL/year in the placebo group (difference 116.7 mL/year [95% CI 7.4, 226.1]; nominal p = 0.037). The most frequent adverse event was diarrhoea, which was reported in 61.9% and 27.7% of patients in the nintedanib and placebo groups, respectively, over the whole trial (median exposure: 17.4 months). Adverse events led to permanent discontinuation of trial drug in 23.8% and 17.0% of subjects in the nintedanib and placebo groups, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: In the INBUILD trial, nintedanib slowed the decline in FVC in patients with progressive fibrosing RA-ILD, with adverse events that were largely manageable. The efficacy and safety of nintedanib in these patients were consistent with the overall trial population. A graphical abstract is available at: https://www.globalmedcomms.com/respiratory/INBUILD_RA-ILD . Key Points • In patients with rheumatoid arthritis and progressive pulmonary fibrosis, nintedanib reduced the rate of decline in forced vital capacity (mL/year) over 52 weeks by 59% compared with placebo. • The adverse event profile of nintedanib was consistent with that previously observed in patients with pulmonary fibrosis, characterised mainly by diarrhoea. • The effect of nintedanib on slowing decline in forced vital capacity, and its safety profile, appeared to be consistent between patients who were taking DMARDs and/or glucocorticoids at baseline and the overall population of patients with rheumatoid arthritis and progressive pulmonary fibrosis.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
