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: All participants must be diagnosed with rheumatic disease (connective tissue disease (CTD)) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) and fulfil all inclusion and no exclusion criteria. Information about participants will be obtained from electronic and physical medical records for existing data collection (over the past ten years, from 2012 to 2022) and/or from medical consultations for newly collected data (for the next three years, from 2023 to 2026). The participants' observation time varies and can be over the whole study duration (from 2012 to 2023), over the past ten years only (existing data) or over the next three years (new data).

Who may be able to join

  • For newly data collection:
  • Male and female Patients.
  • Patients over 18 years old.
  • Patient who gives his/her signed informed consent to be able to use information about their condition.
  • Patient who has the diagnosis of: rheumatoid arthritis, connective tissue disease (CTD) (systemic sclerosis or scleroderma; inflammatory myopathy: antisynthetase, dermatomyositis, polymyositis, mixed connective tissue disease; systemic lupus erythematosus; primary Sjögren syndrome; pulmonary fibrosis associated with non-specific autoimmunity; primary systemic vasculitis; psoriasis, anchylosing spondylitis, reactive arthritis) Spondyloarthritis (SpA) or sarcoidosis, (accordingly with the updated clinical criteria for each pathology).
  • Patient with any interstitial lung diseases (ILD) diagnosed clinically and by a high-resolution computed tomography study with an interstitial pattern (supervised by an expert radiologist).

  • For existing data collection:
  • Medical Records from patients with whom contact was permanently lost for any reason since 2012 till the study start date.
  • Medical Records from male and female Patients.
  • Medical Records from patients over 18 years old.
  • Medical Records of patients that have at least: patient initials, date of birth, gender, date of diagnosis, full diagnosis of:
  • Patient who has the diagnosis of: rheumatoid arthritis, CTD (systemic sclerosis or scleroderma; inflammatory myopathy: antisynthetase, dermatomyositis, polymyositis, mixed connective tissue disease; Systemic lupus erythematosus; primary Sjögren syndrome; pulmonary fibrosis associated with non-specific autoimmunity; primary systemic vasculitis; psoriasis, anchylosing spondylitis, reactive arthritis) SpA or Sarcoidosis, (accordingly with the updated clinical criteria for each pathology).
  • Patient with any ILD diagnosed clinically and by a high-resolution computed tomography study with an interstitial pattern (supervised by an expert radiologist).

Who cannot join

  • Patient with a biopsy definition of usual interstitial pneumonitis, related to any other non-CTD.
  • Patient with post-chemotherapy or post-radiotherapy pneumonitis.
  • Medical Records of patients without full diagnostic of ILD (clinically and by biopsy or high-resolution computed tomography).

About this study

Official title: Ambispective, Non-Interventional Study to Evaluate the Epidemiology of Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILDs) Associated to Rheumatic Diseases (Rheumatoid Arthritis, Connective Tissue Diseases, Spondylarthritis and Sarcoidosis) and the Progression Risk Factors in the Mexican Population

This study aims to characterize the epidemiology of interstitial lung diseases (ILD) associated to connective tissue disease (CTD) in Mexico, and to study its correlation with the different comorbidities and treatments used, as well as the possible impacts of these factors on the outcome of progression, exacerbations, and mortality in patients with ILD associated to CTD.

All participantsAll participants must be diagnosed with rheumatic disease (connective tissue disease (CTD)) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) and fulfil all inclusion and no exclusion criteria. Information about participants will be obtained from electronic and physical medical records for existing data collection (over the past ten years, from 2012 to 2022) and/or from medical consultations for newly collected data (for the next three years, from 2023 to 2026). The participants' observation time varies and can be over the whole study duration (from 2012 to 2023), over the past ten years only (existing data) or over the next three years (new data).

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to first exacerbation: time in months elapsed until the first exacerbation from the diagnosis

    Measured: up to 13 years

  2. Number of exacerbation per year (frequency of exacerbation)

    Measured: up to 13 years

  3. Percent of pulmonary fibrosis: grade of parenchymal involvement evidenced by high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT)

    Measured: up to 13 years

  4. Change in 6-minute walk tests (6-MWT) over time

    Measured: up to 13 years

  5. King's Brief Interstitial Lung Disease Questionnaire (K-BILD) score change over time

    Measured: up to 13 years

  6. Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ)-I score change over time

    Measured: up to 13 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Possibility to have an exacerbation and/or progression in pulmonary fibrosis, sorted by rheumatic disease type (rheumatoid arthritis (RA), connective tissue disease (CTD), spondyloarthritis (SpA) and Sarcoidosis)

    Measured: up to 13 years

  2. Frequency of use of diagnostic tools (laboratory, cabinet)

    Measured: up to 13 years

  3. Progression of pulmonary fibrosis by treatment received identified by HRCT patterns, lung function, activity score and damage index

    Measured: up to 13 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Diseases, Interstitial, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 1 site in Mexico.

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 13 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 May 2026. 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 Mexico. 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?

Contact Boehringer Ingelheim (1-800-243-0127, clintriage.rdg@boehringer-ingelheim.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to first exacerbation: time in months elapsed until the first exacerbation from the diagnosis (time frame: up to 13 years). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 7 May 2026.
