The idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) comprise a number of clinico-pathological entities of unknown origin, which are sufficiently different from one another to be designated as separate disease entities. The aim of this review is to describe the level of evidence available on the efficacy of corticosteroids and immunosuppressive, antifibrotic, or immunomodulatory therapies in the treatment of different IIPs.

Abstract
The idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) comprise a number of clinico-pathological entities of unknown origin, which are sufficiently different from one another to be designated as separate disease entities. The aim of this review is to describe the level of evidence available on the efficacy of corticosteroids and immunosuppressive, antifibrotic, or immunomodulatory therapies in the treatment of different IIPs.
