Identifying Terminologies Used Prior to the Onset of Interstitial Lung Disease in Patients With Lung Cancer: Descriptive Analysis of Electronic Medical Record Data
Terms related to respiratory symptoms, pain or analgesics, and appetite were identified as associated factors for ILD onset in patients with stage IV lung cancer using RWD from acute care institutions for malignant tumors. These findings may support the early detection of ILD and underscore the potential of RWD to generate real-world evidence that informs drug discovery and pharmaceutical development.
