About this study

The University of Kansas ILD and Rare Lung Disease clinic sees hundreds of new patients per year. The investigators would like to leverage this resource to develop an Interstitial Lung Disease Research Unit (ILDRU) repository and database to help develop new methods for early diagnosis, uncover underlying genetic and environmental risk factors, as well as potential treatment targets in the broad range of interstitial lung diseases and rare lung diseases (RLD).

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Collect clinically obtained data for patients with ILD, RLD and risk for ILD/RLD to support research.

    Time frame: Enrollment to Year 10

  2. Establish a collection of biological samples from patients with ILD, RLD and subjects at risk for ILD.

    Time frame: Enrollment to Year 10

  3. Correlate biological samples with individual longitudinal clinical data.

    Time frame: Enrollment to Year 10

  4. Provide biological samples to researchers performing studies in ILD and RLD.

    Time frame: Enrollment to Year 10

  5. Collect historical data and imaging from deceased patients with ILD.
