Deciphering Rheumatoid Arthritis-associated Interstitial Lung Disease Pathogenesis 2

Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Interstitial Lung Disease
Registration Number
NCT04227535
Lead Sponsor
Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris
Brief Summary

The overall goal of this study is to identify risk and prognosis factors of Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Detailed Description

This is not an interventional study. This is a study designed to recruit individuals affected by RA and investigate associated ILD to better understand the clinical phenotypes and genetic/molecular endotypes of RAILD, including the prognosis of the disease.
