Database and biobank for patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis
Official title: Pulmonary Fibrosis Biobank - Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis
Run by University Hospital, Gentofte, Copenhagen · NCT05549635 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is collecting blood samples and health information from people with hypersensitivity pneumonitis to see how they compare to those with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and to help find better ways to diagnose and understand their condition.

What this trial studies
This observational study focuses on collecting blood samples and clinical data from patients diagnosed with hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) at a multidisciplinary team conference. It is a sub-study of the Pulmonary Fibrosis Biomarker cohort, allowing for the comparison of HP patients with those suffering from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The collected data will facilitate the assessment of biomarkers for diagnostic and prognostic purposes, as well as enable further subtyping of HP based on blood markers.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance the understanding and management of hypersensitivity pneumonitis through improved diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown success in utilizing biobanks and databases for similar conditions, indicating a promising approach for this research.
