Brief Summary
The interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are a family of closely related lung conditions characterized by alveolar inflammation, injury, and fibrosis not due to infection or neoplasia. While previously considered to be rare, a recent nationwide study found that idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a fibrotic ILD with a median survival of only 3.8 years, affects nearly 0.5% of older adults in the U.S. While pirfenidone and nintedanib slow the progression of IPF, neither reverses fibrosis nor prevents progression of the disease,and no studies to date have tested interventions that prevent the development of fibrotic ILDs.
