Brief summary
The overall goal of this study is to identify risk and prognosis factors of Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Detailed description
This is not an interventional study. This is a study designed to recruit individuals affected by RA and investigate associated ILD to better understand the clinical phenotypes and genetic/molecular endotypes of RAILD, including the prognosis of the disease.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Identification of genetic factors implicated in RA-ILD using whole exome sequencing (WES). | Baseline | whole exome sequencing data |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Identification of genetic factors implicated in RA-ILD using genome wide association study. | Baseline | genome wide sequencing data |
| Describe RA-ILD natural history by a 5 years annual follow up of RA-ILD patients. | Every year during 5 years | Decline of pulmonary functional tests (PFT) as well as changes in High-Resolution Computed-Tomography chest scan scores |
| Description of the effect of disease modifying Anti Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs) on ILD course and mortality. | Every year during 5 years | Influence of treatment (DMARDs and biologics) over RA-ILD course estimated annually given the cumulated dosage received. |
