Genomic and Proteomic Analysis of Disease Progression in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)

Trial Parameters

Condition Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Sponsor University of Pittsburgh
Study Type OBSERVATIONAL
Phase N/A
Enrollment 500
Sex ALL
Min Age 18 Years
Max Age N/A
Start Date 2005-10
Completion 2030-07

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to identify genetic and biologic markers that may predict the loss of lung function due to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The studies will compare genetic and biologic markers of samples to changes in symptoms. The ultimate goal is to predict if or when patients are likely to experience a rapid decline in lung function due to disease progression.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients who are 18 or older * Diagnosis of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis * Treated at the Simmons Center Exclusion Criteria: * Other Lung Illness
