NCT03977415

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine how interstitial lung disease can be predicted over time in early rheumatoid arthritis. The investigators will study blood and phlegm samples from participants, along with quality of life questionnaires to determine if and how the presence of ILD may impact the participants quality of life over time.

Study Arms (2)

RA with no ILD

Subjects diagnosed with RA less then 2 years and without a diagnosis of ILD, will complete 5 in-person study visits. Visits will be performed every 6 months for 18 months. Study Assessments Include: 1. Medical history and Physical exams 2. Quality of Life Questionnaires 3. Collection of Sputum and Blood 4. Radiology (HRCT) 5. Lung Function Test

RA with ILD

Patients diagnosed with RA less than 2 years, and clinically diagnosed with interstitial lung disease (ILD), will complete 5 in-person study visits. Visits will be performed every 6 months for 18 months. Study Assessments Include: 1. Medical history and Physical exams 2. Quality of Life Questionnaires 3. Collection of Sputum and Blood 4. Radiology (HRCT) 5. Lung Function Test 6. Spirometry
