Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • INCLUSION CRITERIA:
  • Capacity for signing informing consent and express the willing to fulfill all the requirements of the study protocol during the study.
  • The patients should be, in the researcher opinion, capable to fulfill all the requirements of the trial.
  • Male or female patients, 30 to 80 years old, inclusive.
  • Diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis according to the following criteria, based on the ATS/ERS Guidelines:
  • Definite or probable usual interstitial pneumonia confirmed by surgical lung biopsy.
  • In the absence of surgical lung biopsy, all the following:
  • i. High resolution CT (HRCT) showing definite findings for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (FPI): bibasal reticular opacities with minimal ground glass opacities.
  • ii. Absence of other known causes of FPI including toxicity from drugs, environmental exposure or connective tissue diseases.
  • iii. Pulmonary function tests showing ventilatory restrictive pattern and/or impaired gas exchange (FVC and/or DLCO \<90% of predicted)
  • FVC ≥ 50% of predicted value with ratio of FEV1 to FVC ≥ 0.70.
  • DLco (corrected for hemoglobin) ≥ 35% predicted value.
  • Capability of performing a 6 minutes walk test at the time of inclusion.
  • EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
  • Any of the following:
  • Current pregnancy or lactation.
  • Findings that are diagnostic of an interstitial pneumonia or restrictive respiratory disease condition other than UIP.
  • Obstructive pulmonary disease defined by FEV1/FVC \< 0,7 or significant emphysema on HRCT.
  • Evidence of sustained improvement in FPI defined by improvement of respiratory function tests before inclusion, observed in \>=2 test over the year prior to inclusion.
  • Active or recent respiratory infection (less than 60 days before inclusion) or history of frequent exacerbations of IPF from an infectious cause (more than 2/year over the last 2 years)
  • Hospitalization in the 60 days prior to inclusion due to acute exacerbation of IPF.
  • Chronic cardiac failure (functional class NYHA III/IV) or left ventricular ejection fraction \< 25%.
  • Chronically receiving corticosteroid more than 10 mg of prednisone or equivalent, immunosuppressors or antifibrotic agents, including pirfenidone, D-penicillamine, colchicine, ciclosporin A, TNF-alpha antagonists, imatinib, IFN-gamma, azathioprine, cyclophosphamide, within the 30 days prior to inclusion.
  • The patient requires hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis or hemofiltration.
  • History of malignancy, with the exception of skin squamous or basocellular carcinoma or cervix in situ carcinoma treated successfully.
  • History of ethanol abuse within the year prior to inclusion
  • The patient is participating in a clinical trial which includes other drugs or research products within the 28 days prior to baseline assessment.
  • Comorbidities limiting life expectancy to less than 12 months from the baseline assessment.
  • Medical or psychiatric condition serious or active which might interfere with the treatment of study, assessment or protocol fulfillment.
  • Positive test for HBsAg, HCV antibody, syphilis screening essays, or HIV antibody at screening.
