Study population: This is a retrospective cohort study based on data collected from the HIRA national database. HIRA is a government-affiliated organization that builds an accurate claims review and is a quality assessment system for the National Health Insurance (NHI). The NHI is the only public medical insurance system operated by the Ministry of Health and Welfare in Korea. Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) provided sample database, spanning the period from January 2011 to December 2011. The database (HIRA-NPS-2011-0001) was based on random sampling of outpatients from whole population. The sample cases are total 1,375,842. Among them 670,258 cases (age > 40) were evaluated.

About this study

The investigators will evaluate the prevalence of lung cancer associated with interstitial lung disease (ILD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) utilizing the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) database, spanning the period from January 2011 to December 2011. The database (HIRA-NPS-2011-0001) was based on random sampling of outpatients from whole population. Patients with ILDs, IPF, connective tissue disorder (CTD), and COPD were identified based on the International Classification of Disease-10 (ICD-10) diagnostic codes.

Read the detailed description

The epidemiology of lung cancer related to interstitial lung disease (ILD) with or without with connective tissue disease (CTD) as well as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) has not been well established yet. Interstitial lung disease has a potential to develop lung cancer in the name of scar cancer. The investigators aimed to explore prevalence of lung cancer in patients with ILD with or without CTD and IPF in comparison with chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD).

The investigators will evaluate the prevalence of lung cancer associated with ILD and IPF utilizing the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) database, spanning the period from January 2011 to December 2011. The database (HIRA-NPS-2011-0001) was based on random sampling of outpatients from whole population. The sample cases are total 1,375,842. Among them 670,258 cases (age > 40) were evaluated. Patients with ILDs, IPF, CTD, and COPD will be identified based on the International Classification of Disease-10 (ICD-10) diagnostic codes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Diseases, Interstitial and Lung Cancer, run by Keimyung University Dongsan Medical Center.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jul 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lung cancer prevalence (time frame: Up to 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Jul 2015.
