It is an anti-fibrotic agent. Anti fibrotics are used in CTD ILD only if fibrosis seen on HRCT. Which is a late feature. “Nintedanib was recently approved for the treatment of PF-ILDs (Progressive fibrotic ILD) in several parts of the world, including the USA and UK, and therefore both randomised controlled and real-world data are eagerly anticipated to help guide the clinical utility of anti-fibrotic therapy in clinical practice.”
