Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to methods of treating a patient diagnosed with an interstitial lung disease (ILD), comprising administering a pharmaceutical drug for treating the ILD in a treatment regimen effective to treat fibrosis, inflammation, and/or vasculopathy, and in conjunction with the administration of the pharmaceutical drug, engaging in a self-directed digital therapeutic program that treats patient anxiety relating to the administration of the pharmaceutical drug, wherein the engaging in the self-directed digital therapeutic program is effective to increase adherence to the treatment regimen.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to methods of treating an interstitial lung disease (ILD) in a patient, comprising administering a pharmaceutical treatment that is useful in the therapy of an ILD; and, in conjunction with the administration of the pharmaceutical treatment, engaging in a digital therapeutic program that delivers cognitive behavioural therapy for the treatment of anxiety which the patient identifies as leading to possible exacerbations of the symptoms of the ILD. Suitable pharmaceutical treatments include those that are useful in the therapy of an ILD, including pharmaceutical treatments that are in some way disease-modifying and/or capable of altering the course or the pathology of the ILD or at least slowing its progression, such as such as an antifibrotic agent, an immunomodulatory imide drug (IMID) or an angiotensin II type 2 receptor agonist (ATRAG).
