Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The overall goal of this study is to define the phenotype of Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD), and identify factors that predict radiologic progression in those with subclinical RA-ILD, in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The investigators hypothesize that there are common core elements (e.g. clinical features, genetic variants, and/or biologic markers) between other forms of ILD (e.g. idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, IPF) and subclinical RA-ILD that places individuals at risk for the development of lung disease.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

RA with Sub-clinical ILD

Subjects will be followed annually until study closure.

Assessments are as follows:

1. Clinical (Annual): Demographics, health-related behaviors, co-morbidities, medications, respiratory symptoms, rheumatologic assessment, quality of life
2. Physiologic (3-5 yrs FU): Lung function on Pulmonary Function Test (PFT)
3. Radiologic (3-5 yrs FU): HRCT scan of chest
4. Genetic (3-5 yrs FU): Blood sample collection for RNA
5. Biologic (3-5 yrs FU): Blood sample collection for other blood markers

No interventions assigned to this group

RA with No-ILD

Subjects will be followed annually until study closure.

Assessments are as follows:

1. Clinical (Annual): Demographics, health-related behaviors, co-morbidities, medications, respiratory symptoms, rheumatologic assessment, quality of life
2. Physiologic (3-5 yrs FU): Lung function on Pulmonary Function Test (PFT)
3. Radiologic (3-5 yrs FU): HRCT scan of chest
4. Genetic (3-5 yrs FU): Blood sample collection for RNA
5. Biologic (3-5 yrs FU): Blood sample collection for other blood markers

Note: Certain follow-up procedures may not occur for every subject and will be determined by the research team.

No interventions assigned to this group
