Interstitial Lung Disease Research Unit Biobank (ILDRU)

September 16, 2025 updated by: Scott Matson, University of Kansas Medical Center

University of Kansas Medical Center Interstitial Lung Disease Research Unit (ILDRU) Biobank

Establish a interstitial lung disease (ILD) registry and biorepository to lead towards a further understanding of the disease.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The University of Kansas ILD and Rare Lung Disease clinic sees hundreds of new patients per year. The investigators would like to leverage this resource to develop an Interstitial Lung Disease Research Unit (ILDRU) repository and database to help develop new methods for early diagnosis, uncover underlying genetic and environmental risk factors, as well as potential treatment targets in the broad range of interstitial lung diseases and rare lung diseases (RLD).
