Nintedanib intermediate
Nintedanib is a medication used for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and along with other medications for some types of non-small-cell lung cancer.

It is a small molecule tyrosine-kinase inhibitor, targeting vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) and platelet derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR).
Nintedanib is used for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). It has been shown to slow down decrease in forced vital capacity, and it also improves people's quality of life.

Nintedanib is a substrate of the transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp) which moves the absorbed substance back into the gut's lumen. The P-gp inhibitor ketoconazole is known to increase blood plasma levels of nintedanib by a factor of 1.8; other inhibitors such as erythromycin or ciclosporin are expected to have a similar effect. On the other hand, the P-gp inductor rifampicin has been shown to cut nintedanib plasma levels in half; other inductors such as carbamazepine, phenytoin or St. John's Wort probably lower plasma levels as well.
