Summary

The goal of this study is to determine whether thalidomide can stop the progression of fibrosis in IPF.

The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety, feasibility and efficacy of 400 mg of thalidomide administered daily for one year in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who have failed or are not candidates for treatment with corticosteroids and/or cytotoxic drugs.

The study population will consist of patients with biopsy-proven moderate to severe IPF who have failed or are not candidates for standard therapy with corticosteroids and/or cytotoxic drugs.
