Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The population of interest are individuals affected by RA with ILD (RA-ILD). Individuals affected with RA and without ILD (RA-noILD) will be included as a control population. The ILD status being systematically assessed by HRCT chest scan.

  • RA diagnosis according to ACR (classification of rheumatoid arthritis) 1987 and/or ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria, validated by a senior rheumatologist
  • ILD diagnosis based on typical High-Resolution Computed-Tomography (HCRT) patterns and pulmonary function tests (PFT), validated by a senior pulmonologist
  • Age ≥18 years
  • RA diagnosis according to ACR 1987 and/or ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria, validated by a senior rheumatologist

About this study

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

Read the 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.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Identification of genetic factors implicated in RA-ILD using whole exome sequencing (WES).

    whole exome sequencing data

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Identification of genetic factors implicated in RA-ILD using genome wide association study.

    genome wide sequencing data

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Describe RA-ILD natural history by a 5 years annual follow up of RA-ILD patients.

    Decline of pulmonary functional tests (PFT) as well as changes in High-Resolution Computed-Tomography chest scan scores

    Measured: Every year during 5 years

  3. Description of the effect of disease modifying Anti Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs) on ILD course and mortality.

    Influence of treatment (DMARDs and biologics) over RA-ILD course estimated annually given the cumulated dosage received.

    Measured: Every year during 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rheumatoid Arthritis and Interstitial Lung Disease, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Identification of genetic factors implicated in RA-ILD using whole exome sequencing (WES). (time frame: Baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04227535, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Apr 2023.
