Study Summary

The purposes of this study are: * to determine if there are specific genetic traits that might explain why patients have developed pulmonary fibrosis; * to determine if specific genetic traits account for differing patterns of inflammation and scar tissue that has formed in the patient's lungs.

Primary Outcome

Blood samples will be collected to validate in a large cohort the per- allele associations of prespecified SNPs with IPF case status adjusted for age , sex. smoking, and principal components of ancestry.
