This study will explore how adults in Japan with pulmonary fibrosis decide whether to continue or discontinue antifibrotic therapy after experiencing antifibrotic therapy-related adverse events.
Inclusion Criteria:
Participants must meet all the following criteria to be eligible for inclusion in this study:
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) participants in Japan. Note: This includes those clinically recognized as having idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF).
Participants who are ≥18 years of age at the time of providing informed consent via the web-based system.
Participants receiving outpatient care for pulmonary fibrosis (PF) who have been introduced to this study by a referring physician.
Participants who have a history of taking, or are currently taking, pirfenidone, nintedanib, or nerandomilast.
Participants who have experienced at least one antifibrotic (AF) therapy-related adverse event (AE).
1) Participants who have not received AF therapy for at least 1 month prior to enrollment.
2) Participants whose AF therapy was discontinued within 6 months prior to enrollment.
3) Participants whose reason for discontinuing AF therapy includes at least one AF therapy-related AE.
Continuation group only
Participants who feel or have felt burdened by the experienced AE.
Participants who have continued AF therapy for a specific period (≥6 months) at the time of enrollment.
Exclusion Criteria:
Participants meeting any of the following criteria will be excluded from the study:
Discontinuation group only 1) Participants who discontinued AF therapy solely for reasons other than AE (e.g., financial reasons, disease progression).
