Global Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis 2016-2020


About Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis belongs to a group of lung diseases known as interstitial lung diseases. It affects people in the age group 50-70 years. Diagnosis is effected by the exclusion of other interstitial lung diseases. High-resolution computed tomography (CT) is often employed to confirm the presence of the disease. There is no permanent cure for this disease; therefore, treatment involves relieving underlying symptoms. Nintedanib and pirfenidone are the two approved drugs for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Corticosteroids and immunosuppressive drugs are also used for the treatment.

Technavio’s analysts forecast the global idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis market to grow at a CAGR of 23.97% during the period 2016-2020.
