1 Discipline MCP5777 In-depth Study of the Treatment of Interstitial Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Subject Area: 5150 Created: 27/11/2014 Active since: 27/11/2014 Number of credits: 1 Hours: Theoretical Practical Self-study Duration Total (per week) (per week) (per week) week 15 hours Faculty Members Responsible: Ronaldo Adib Kairalla Carlos Roberto Ribeiro de Carvalho Bruno Guedes Baldi Objectives: To critically discuss and analyze the therapeutic options available for the idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), taking into account the pathophysiological aspects and the new pharmacological options based in recent studies, which brought more favorable perspectives to patients. Background: The better understanding of the mechanisms of the alveolar-capillary membrane injury and of the repair response in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), which has been acquired in recent years, in addition to the appearance of new perspectives in the treatment with blockers of the fibrosis, such as pirfenidone and tyrosine kinase inhibitors, has improved the perspective for IPF patients. The aim of this discipline is to present and discuss these new concepts and the results observed with the new treatments of IPF, besides discussing the optimized monitoring of the pharmaceutical response. Content: Theoretical lessons: 1. In-depth study of the pathophysiology of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). 2. Correlation between pathology and pulmonary function in the IPF. Seminars 1. In-depth study of the etiology and pathogenesis of the idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, including analysis of experimental models used in IPF. 2. Analysis of the

2 established prognostic factors, including clinical, tomographic, functional and histopathological parameters. 3. Critical study of the pharmacological treatment with corticosteroids, immunosuppressants and n-acetyl-cysteine. 4. Critical study of the pharmacological treatment with medications that act in the fibrosis, such as the pirferidone and the tyrosine kinase inhibitors. 5. Pharmacological treatment: future perspectives. 6. Analysis of the parameters used for the evaluation of therapeutic response. 7. Critical analysis of pulmonary transplant as a therapeutic option. Assessment Method: 1. Seminar presentation 2. Participation in the discussion of the topics. Observation: Bibliography: 1. American Thoracic Society.
