Creation of a Biospecimen Repository From Patients With Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILD)

To develop a repository of blood samples from patients with ILD to support future studies into the development of such biomarkers. Patients with pneumonia and healthy patients will also be recruited as a control group.

About this study

The proposed biospecimen repository would be derived from patients diagnosed with ILD. This is to include 500 patients in the repository, with each patient contributing one blood sample. Patients with pneumonia and healthy patients will also be recruited as a control group.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients with a diagnosis of ILD or any fibrotic disease of the lung or a diagnosis of pneumonia
  • Patients willing to provide written informed consent

Exclusion criteria

  • Unwillingness/unable to give blood samples

Treatment and study plan

ILD

Other

100 cc of blood collected from a total of 250 ILD patients. This includes IPF (n=100), fibrotic NSIP (n=50), chronic hypersensitivity pneumonia (n=20), sarcoidosis(n=50), progressive rheumatoid lung disease (n=10) and scleroderma lung disease (n=20)), 10 patients with other fibrosing disease (fibrosing mediastinitis), and 50 patients with lymphangioleiomyomatosis

healthy

Other

100 cc of blood collected from a total of 25 healthy volunteers in order to compare with the ILD participants.

Pneumonia

Other

100 cc of blood collected from a total of 100 participants with a diagnosis of pneumonia in order to compare with the ILD participants.

Primary outcomes

  1. Future Disease Management

    Time frame: 1 visit

    Reliable biomarkers to help guide treatment in ILD would be a major step forward in the management of this disease.
