Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Time-Adjusted Semi-Annual Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) Decline in Participants With IPF During the Peri-Diagnostic Period, Measured in Milliliters (mL) by Daily Home Spirometry
Minimum site visits were: baseline, diagnosis, and EOS for each participant. From inclusion into the study, participants were followed for up to12 months. The EOS was defined as: If no diagnosis was made 12 months after inclusion, the participant left the study; Participants diagnosed with non-ILD left the study on the date of diagnosis; Participants diagnosed with IPF or non-IPF ILD were followed up to the start of drug treatment (within 6 months) or up to 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed. Therefore, the total length of the study was variable for each participant. Measurements were taken daily by home spirometry. The semi-annual mean FVC decline was calculated by use of the estimated semi-annual FVC decline of each individual participant. The individual FVC decline was estimated by applying a linear regression model to all acceptable FVC measurements flagged as 'Good blow' collected by the individual participant during the entire peri-diagnostic period (up to 18 months).
Secondary Outcome Measures
Time-Adjusted Semi-Annual FVC Decline in Participants With Non-IPF ILD During the Peri-Diagnostic Period, Measured in mL by Daily Home Spirometry
Minimum site visits were: baseline, diagnosis, and EOS for each participant. From inclusion into the study, participants were followed for up to12 months. The EOS was defined as: If no diagnosis was made 12 months after inclusion, the participant left the study; Participants diagnosed with non-ILD left the study on the date of diagnosis; Participants diagnosed with IPF or non-IPF ILD were followed up to the start of drug treatment (within 6 months) or up to 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed. Therefore, the total length of the study was variable for each participant. Measurements were taken daily by home spirometry. The semi-annual mean FVC decline was calculated by use of the estimated semi-annual FVC decline of each individual participant. The individual FVC decline was estimated by applying a linear regression model to all acceptable FVC measurements flagged as 'Good blow' collected by the individual participant during the entire peri-diagnostic period (up to 18 months).
Change From Baseline in the FVC Decline in IPF and Non-IPF ILD Participants During the Peri-Diagnostic Period, Measured in mL by Site Spirometry
The peri-diagnostic period covered the pre-diagnostic period (from inclusion into the study (enrollment visit), participants were followed for a maximum of 12 months in the pre-diagnostic assessment period) and the post-diagnostic period (from diagnosis to the start of drug treatment within 6 months or a maximum of 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed).

The peri-diagnostic period covered the pre-diagnostic period (from inclusion into the study (enrollment visit), participants were followed for a maximum of 12 months in the pre-diagnostic assessment period) and the post-diagnostic period (from diagnosis to the start of drug treatment within 6 months or a maximum of 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed).
Calorie Expenditure in IPF and Non-IPF ILD Participants During the Peri-Diagnostic Period, Measured by Daily Home Accelerometry
Change in the King's Brief Interstitial Lung Disease (K-BILD) Questionnaire Total Score by Visit During the Peri-Diagnostic Period
The K-BILD questionnaire was specifically developed to analyze the health status of participants with ILD. The questionnaire consists of 15 items (assessed by the patients on a scale ranging from 1 to 7, where 1 and 7 represent worst and best health status). Items are compiled into 3 domains: breathlessness and activities (range: 0-21), psychological (range: 0-34) , and chest symptoms (range: 0-8). To score the K-BILD, the Likert response scale weightings for individual items are combined and scores are transformed to a range of 0-100 by using logit values (higher scores indicate better health status). The peri-diagnostic period covered the pre-diagnostic period (from enrollment visit participants were followed for up to 12 months) and the post-diagnostic period (from diagnosis to the start of drug treatment within 6 months or a maximum of 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed).
Modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) Dyspnea Scale Scores During the Peri-Diagnostic Period
The mMRC dyspnea scale was used to grade the effects of breathlessness on daily activities over time. The following grading categories are used for this scale: Grade 0 - I only get breathless with strenuous exercise; Grade 1 - I get short of breath when hurrying on the level or walking up a slight hill; Grade 2 - I walk slower than people of the same age on the level because of breathlessness or have to stop for breath when walking on my own pace; Grade 3 - I stop for breath after walking about 100 yards or after a few minutes on level ground; Grade 4 - I am too breathless to leave the house. The peri-diagnostic period covered the pre-diagnostic period (from inclusion into the study (enrollment visit), participants were followed for a maximum of 12 months in the pre-diagnostic assessment period) and the post-diagnostic period (from diagnosis to the start of drug treatment within 6 months or a maximum of 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed).
The EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level Questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) 5-Item Health State Profile Scores During the Peri-Diagnostic Period
The EQ-5D-5L questionnaire is a self-reported health status questionnaire that assesses mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each item is rated by the participant on a five-point scale indicating the followings: Level 1 - no problem; Level 2 - slight problems; Level 3 - moderate problems; Level 4 - severe problems; Level 5 - extreme problems. The peri-diagnostic period covered the pre-diagnostic period (from inclusion into the study (enrollment visit), participants were followed for a maximum of 12 months in the pre-diagnostic assessment period) and the post-diagnostic period (from diagnosis to the start of drug treatment within 6 months or a maximum of 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed).

The peri-diagnostic period covered the pre-diagnostic period (from inclusion into the study (enrollment visit), participants were followed for a maximum of 12 months in the pre-diagnostic assessment period) and the post-diagnostic period (from diagnosis to the start of drug treatment within 6 months or a maximum of 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed).
The EuroQoL 5-dimension 5-level Questionnaire Index Utility Scores During the Peri-Diagnostic Period
The EQ-5D-5L questionnaire is a self-reported health status questionnaire that assesses mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. A unique health state is defined for each participant by combining the levels from each of the 5 dimensions. Each state is referred to in terms of a 5 digit code, e.g. state 11111 indicates no problems on any of the 5 dimensions, while state 12345 indicates no problems with mobility, slight problems with washing or dressing, moderate problems with usual activities, severe pain or discomfort and extreme anxiety or depression. From these 5 answers an index value is derived between 0 and 1, with a higher value corresponding with a better Quality of Life.
Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS) Score During the Peri-Diagnostic Period
The FAS is a fatigue questionnaire consisting of 10 items; five questions reflect physical fatigue and five questions analyze mental fatigue. A five-point scale (one for "never" to five for "always") is used for participant responses. The scale score is calculated by summing all items. Therefore, the FAS scores can range from 10 to 50. The peri-diagnostic period covered the pre-diagnostic period (from inclusion into the study (enrollment visit), participants were followed for a maximum of 12 months in the pre-diagnostic assessment period) and the post-diagnostic period (from diagnosis to the start of drug treatment within 6 months or a maximum of 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed).
Cough, Urge to Cough, and Fatigue Visual Analogue Scales (VAS) Score During the Peri-Diagnostic Period
The VAS are 100 mm scales on which participants indicate the severity of their cough, the urge to cough and their fatigue. In the VAS, participants had to record their health state on a scale ranging from 0 (best imaginable health state) to 100 (worst imaginable health state). A mean of this health state was recorded for participant analyzed in this outcome measure. The peri-diagnostic period covered the pre-diagnostic period (from inclusion into the study (enrollment visit), participants were followed for a maximum of 12 months in the pre-diagnostic assessment period) and the post-diagnostic period (from diagnosis to the start of drug treatment within 6 months or a maximum of 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed).
Pearson's Correlation Coefficient of FVC (mL) Between Home and Site Spirometry in IPF and Non-IPF ILD Participants During the Peri-Diagnostic Period
The correlation of FVC (mL) between home and site spirometry was analyzed by taking into account the individually estimated linear regression models of each participant for home-based FVC measurements and site FVC measurements. This analysis was performed for participants diagnosed with IPF or non-IPF ILD in the peri-diagnosis period. The peri-diagnostic period covered the pre-diagnostic period (from inclusion into the study (enrollment visit), participants were followed for a maximum of 12 months in the pre-diagnostic assessment period) and the post-diagnostic period (from diagnosis to the start of drug treatment within 6 months or a maximum of 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed).
Pearson's Correlation Coefficient of Physical Functional Capacity Assessed at Home in Terms of the Decline in the Number of Footsteps and on Site in Terms of the Decline in Distance of the 6MWT
The measure represents the correlation of distance walked (meter) assessed by physical function capacity at home and the 6MWT at the site in the peri-diagnosis period. The peri-diagnostic period covered the pre-diagnostic period (from inclusion into the study (enrollment visit), participants were followed for a maximum of 12 months in the pre-diagnostic assessment period) and the post-diagnostic period (from diagnosis to the start of drug treatment within 6 months or a maximum of 6 months if no drug treatment was prescribed).

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This international clinical study will enroll participants with a suspected diagnosis of IPF/ILD. This study will characterize the disease behavior of IPF and ILD in the peri-diagnostic period. This objective will be achieved using a multidimensional approach assessing changes in pulmonary function, measured by daily handheld spirometry and site spirometry as well as assessing physical functional capacity at home (accelerometry) and at site (6-minute walk tests [6MWT]). Daily handheld spirometry or physical functional capacity assessments are not routinely performed in this participant population. By following participants' lung function before and after diagnosis using home spirometry, levels of physical activity, as well as self-assessment data from the participants (patient reported outcomes; PRO), the study would provide potentially more rapid information on disease behavior and eventually progression compared to usual clinic measurements that occur only every 3-6 months. By receiving data from daily handheld spirometry measurements, treating physicians may have an improved chance of detecting earlier and outside of hospital visits a decline in lung function that could potentially lead to improvements in both diagnosis and treatment for participants with IPF/ILD.
