Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to evaluate if inhaled granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor delay the increase in alveolar-arterial oxygen difference, compared to no treatment, for adult patients with mild-to-moderate autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis in China over a two-year period.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Adult autoimmune PAP subjects will be included: 1) a positive PAS stain from BALF or lung biopsy; 2) high level of serum anti-GM-CSF antibody (\>2.39ug/ml, the cut-off point in our hospital); 3) age above 18 years old; 4) exclude hereditary and secondary PAP.
- Able to give written informed consent and comply with the requirements of the study.
- Patients are not eligible for the whole lung lavage (WLL), decided by clinicians.
- Eligibility for GM-CSF inhalation: 1) Disease severity score (DSS) is 1-3; 2) No treatment with GM-CSF therapy or WLLin the 3 months prior to enrollment. Definition of DSS2: 1, no symptom and PaO2\>=70mmHg;2, PaO2\>=70mmHg with symptoms;3, PaO2\>=60 and \<70mmHg; 4, PaO2\>=50 and \<60mmHg; 5, PaO2\<50mmHg.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients will be observed for 3 months and all APAP patients who resolved spontaneously will be excluded from our study.
- PAP resulting from another condition (e.g. occupational exposure to silica, underlying HIV, respiratory infections, myeloproliferative disorder or leukaemia);
- A normal or low-titre serum anti-GM-CSF antibody (≤2.39ug/ml);
- History of severe allergic or anaphylactic reactions to humanized or murine monoclonal antibodies;
- Chronic lung disease associated with already existing respiratory failure (such as pulmonary emphysema or fibrosis);
- Other serious medical conditions which, in the opinion of the investigator, would make the patient unsuitable for the study.
- Pregnancy.
