The lung microbiome’s contribution to IPF pathogenesisis unknown. Using COMET-IPF (Correlating Outcomes with biochemical Markers to Estimate Time-progression in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis), the goal of this study was to determine whether unique microbial signatures would associate with disease progression. IPF subjects within four years of diagnosis aged 35–80 were eligible for inclusion. Subjects were followed for up to a maximum of 80 weeks. This completed observational study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01071707. Progression-free survival was defined as death, acute exacerbation, lung transplant, or decline in FVC of 10% or DLCO of 15%.DNA was isolated from 55 bronchoscopic alveolar lavage (BAL) samples. 454 pyrosequencing was used to assign operational taxonomic units (OTUs) based on a 3% sequence divergence. Adjusted Cox models identified OTUs significantly associated with progression-free survival at a p<0·10 level. These OTUs were then used in principal components (PC) analysis. The association between PCs and microbes with high factor loadings from the PC analysis and progression-free survival were examined via Cox regression analyses. Mean FVC was 70·1% and mean DLCO 42·3 %predicted. Significant associations with disease progression were noted with increased % relative abundance of two OTUs identified by PC analysis, a Streptococcus OTU. (p<0·0009) and a Staphylococcus OTU(p=0·01). Strength of associations using PCs versus two OTUs alone was similar. Threshold analysis helped define a cut point for % relative abundance for each OTU associated with progression-free survival, >3·9% for the Streptococcus OTU, HR 10·19 (95% CI 2·94, 35·35; p=0·0002) and >1·8% for the Staphylococcus OTU, HR 5·06 (1·71, 14·93; p=0·003). These preliminary data suggest IPF disease progression is associated with presence of specific members within the Staphylococcus and Streptococcus genera.
