*The ATS/ERS/JRS/ALAT evidence-based guidelines for the diagnosis and management of IPF defines IPF as a chronic, progressive lung disease.
ATS=American Thoracic Society; ERS=European Respiratory Society; JRS=Japanese Respiratory Society; ALAT=Latin American Thoracic Association.

†Mixed decline refers to periods of relative stability with periods of acute worsening and rapid decline.

Optum Research Database–Medicare Advantage Population. Cohort Entry: January 1, 2008-September 30, 2014.
COPD=chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; GERD=gastroesophageal reflux disease; ICD-9=International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision.
‡Non-interventional cohort study from a Medicare Advantage and Part D plan of medical and pharmacy claims data (ICD-9 code) for patients newly diagnosed with IPF with ≥1 additional medical claim and ≥65 years of age (N=4716).
§Comorbidities of interest were defined using validated algorithms (when available) or with clinical input and searches of medical claims coding systems. Coverage was for at least 12 months.
||Mean follow-up time: 0.8 years. Follow-up time for each cohort member extended from the day after the index date until the earliest of disenrollment from the health plan, death, occurrence of baseline exclusion criterion during follow-up, or the end of the study period. For each outcome, patients were censored for any second occurrences of that outcome, but remained eligible for a different outcome.
Esbriet preserves more lung function for patients with IPF and delays disease progression.
