Scientists track families to unlock secrets of inherited lung disease
NCT ID NCT03437486
Summary
This study aims to understand how inherited pulmonary fibrosis develops over time in family members who are at risk. Researchers will follow 750 healthy relatives of people with this lung-scarring disease for up to 10 years, using yearly questionnaires, lung scans, and blood tests. The goal is to identify early signs and risk factors that predict who might develop symptoms later in life.
