This does not include minor surgical procedures for localized carcinoma (e.g., basal cell carcinoma)~10. Any condition other than IPF which, in the opinion of the PI, is likely to result in the death of the patient within the next 3 years~11. History of unstable or deteriorating cardiac, vascular, or neurologic disease within the previous 6 months, including but not limited to the following:~    * Myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, coronary artery bypass surgery, or coronary angioplasty~   * Congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization~   * Uncontrolled arrhythmias~   * Thromboembolic event (e.g., deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism)~   * Transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) or cerebral vascular accident~12. Any condition, which, in the opinion of the investigator, might be significantly exacerbated by the known side effects, (e.g., flu-like syndrome) associated with the administration of IFN g 1b~13. History of any of the following medical conditions:~    * Multiple sclerosis~   * Seizures within the past 10 years or taking anti seizure medication~   * Severe or poorly controlled diabetes~14. Pregnancy or lactation. Females of childbearing potential are required to have a negative serum pregnancy test before treatment and must agree to practice abstinence or prevent pregnancy by at least a barrier method of birth control for the duration of the study~15. Inability to tolerate nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) or acetaminophen (paracetamol)~16. History of ethanol abuse in the past 2 years~17. Known hypersensitivity to IFN-g or closely related interferons or to any component of the study treatment~18. Presence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or chronic viral hepatitis~    Laboratory Exclusions:~19. Any of the following liver function test criteria above specified limits:~    Total bilirubin \> 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN); aspartate or alanine aminotransferases (AST/SGOT or ALT/SGPT) \> 2 x ULN; alkaline phosphatase \> 2 x ULN; or albumin \< 3.0 mg/dL~20.
