The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the sequential therapy with whole lung Lavage (WLL)/inhaling granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor, compared to WLL only, for adult patients with severe autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis in China over a two-year period.
21 studies on the registry are indexed under Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis; 6 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 60 is above the median of 10 across 12 interventional studies indexed under Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.
Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.
Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.
The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.
“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

After the patients were randomly divided into two groups, they will receive whole lung lavage (WLL), and then one of the two groups with continue the next step as follows: Induction period: The time of beginning is 1 week after whole lung lavage, aerosolized GM-CSF was given for 7 days (150ug bid), and then the durg was stopped for 7 days, the 2 weeks was designed as a cycle, a total of 6 cycles (3 months) were known as the induction period. Maintenance period: maintenance period came up after the induction period. The dose of aerosolized GM-CSF was reduced to 150ug/d for three times a week, and then the durg was stopped for 7 days, the 2 weeks was designed as a cycle and maintenance period lasted for 9 months.
Drug: GM-CSF

Time to the first relapse (the date: day/month/year)
The standard of relapse: the condition of the disease after GM-CSF inhalation meeted the standard of effective treatment or the stability criteria, and then the condition deteriorated and meeted the deteriorate standard. The standard of effective treatment: oxygenation improvement (an increase in PaO2 of more than 10mmHg and / or a reduction in A-aDO2 more than 10mmHg). The stability criteria: an increase or a reduction in PaO2 of less than 10mmHg and / a reduction or an increase in A-aDO2 of less than 10mmHg. The deteriorate standard: deteriorate oxygenation (a reduction in PaO2 of more than 10mmHg and / or an increase in A-aDO2 of more than 10mmHg).
Time frame: Up to 2 years
