Cohort of IPF Patients Experiencing an Exacerbation
Extension of the PFBIO cohort which includes patients with newly diagnosed idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) for longitudinal follow-up for up to 5 years. In the PFBIO-EXA extension, patients are included if they experience an exacerbation, or other increase in respiratory symptoms requiring hospital admission, for further collection of clinical and biological data.

Collagen-targeted Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Imaging for Assessment of EGCG Effect
The primary purpose of this substudy is to determine if collagen-targeted PET using the type 1 collagen-targeted PET probe, Gallium-68 (68Ga)-labeled collagen binding probe 8 (CBP8) can inform as to drug effect of EGCG and assist in dose selection.

Collection of Airway, Blood and/or Urine Specimens From Subjects for Research Studies
The purpose of this study is to obtain biologic materials from the blood, airways and/or urine of normal individuals and individuals with lung disease. The normal are used to establish a set of normal ranges for various parameters. These provide control information when compared to individuals with various pulmonary diseases, and will help in understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of various lung diseases. The underlying hypothesis is that the pathologic morphological changes in the airway epithelium must be preceded by changes in the gene expression pattern of the airway epithelium and potentially in macrophages.

Controls for Respiratory Diseases
This is the registry of control participants for patients with various respiratory diseases. We screened healthy volunteers who visited Seoul National Hospital Healthcare System Gangnam Center for routine health check-up, and enrolled patients who agree to participate in the study. The participants undergo baseline questionnaires, provide blood specimen and information of the results of health check-up. We will include participants as controls if they have no significant respiratory symptom and no significant radiographic abnormality. The data from this registry will be compared with those from other registry of various respiratory diseases

Cough Reduction in IPF with Nalbuphine ER
This is a multi-center randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel, 4-arm study of nalbuphine ER (NAL ER). After meeting eligibility during the Screening Period, subjects will be randomized (1:1:1:1) to one of four treatment arms with placebo and increasing doses of nalbuphine ER. Each arm will be titrated to their fixed dose during the blinded 2-week Titration period followed by the 4-week Fixed Dose Period for a total of 6 weeks on drug.

Database and Biobank of Patients With Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis
Sub-study of the main Pulmonary Fibrosis Biomarker (PFBIO) cohort (NCT02755441), recruiting patients with an MDT-diagnosis of hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP). Patients are included for the collection of blood samples and regular clinical data. The database and biobank will be available for studies of HP, and can be directly compared to the main PFBIO cohort, which has recruited patients with Idiopathic pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) since 2016. Biomarkers will be assessed as diagnostic and prognostic. Further subtyping of HP, based on blood markers (including precipitins) will also be possible with the PFBIO-HP project.

Deep Learning Diagnostic and Risk-stratification for IPF and COPD
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are severe, progressive, irreversibly incapacitating pulmonary disorders with modest response to therapeutic interventions and poor prognosis. Prompt and accurate diagnosis is important to enable patients to receive appropriate care at the earliest possible stage to delay disease progression and prolong survival. Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted digital lung auscultation could constitute an alternative to conventional subjective operator-related auscultation to accurately and earlier diagnose these diseases. Moreover, lung ultrasound (LUS), a...

Dyspnea and Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Longitudinal prospective exploratory study on the evolution of dyspnea, in its sensory and affective dimensions, in patients followed for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), between inclusion and a 6-month evaluation

Effect of CPAP on Abnormal Gastroesophageal Reflux and Lung Inflammation in IPF
This study will evaluate the effect of CPAP therapy on esophageal pH and lung inflammation in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and sleep apnea.

Effects of Pulmonary Diseases and Their Treatment on Cardiac Function
While the bidirectional relationship between the lung and the right heart are well studied, the cardiopulmonary interactions between the lung and the left heart are largely unresearched and not well understood. However, in recent years, there is a growing evidence that partially explains the bidirectional interaction between COPD and left heart. Systemic inflammation with multiorgan involvement is thought to play a role in COPD as a systemic disease. Some therapeutic approaches to COPD also appear to influence these cardiopulmonary interactions. While understanding these interactions is very important for clinicians, scientific data are scarce. Cardiac magnetic resonance...
