Interstitial Lung Disease: A Study From Infancy to Elderly Including Relatives

The concerned patients are children and adults suffering from idiopathic interstitial pneumonias, other chronic fibrosing interstitial pneumonias with a progressive phenotype, and interstitial pneumonia associated with Scleroderma and related cases of patients carrying a mutation on one of the telomere-associated genes. This is a national, observational, longitudinal, multicenter study that will be conducted retrospectively and prospectively. It aims to collect consistent and comparable clinical data for patients and their relatives, whether they carry a mutation or not, affected by diffuse idiopathic interstitial pneumopathy. The expected duration of the study, including data analysis, is approximately 10 years (5 years for participant enrollment and 5 years of follow-up, in addition to the steps for data management and statistical analyses). Each participating center will inform every participant by providing an information sheet, and their written consent will be obtained before including them in the study and commencing data collection. Prospective medical data will be collected at 6 months to 1 year after enrollment and then at least once per year for patients up to 5 years and 5 years for their relatives. Participants will complete a self-questionnaire during their regular follow-up consultations or by accessing a secure interface.
