Lung disease registry aims to unlock secrets of interstitial lung disease
NCT ID NCT00258583
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is creating a registry of medical information from people with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Researchers will collect past, current, and future health records from up to 5,000 adults treated at the UPMC Simmons Center. The goal is to build a database that can be used for future research to better understand ILD. No new treatments or interventions are being tested.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this registry could help researchers better understand interstitial lung diseases and identify patterns that may lead to future treatments.
What could go wrong
This is an observational registry, not a treatment trial. It does not test any new drug or therapy, so there is no direct benefit to participants.
