Almost all patients are smokers or ex-smokers. There are some arguments in favor of genetic abnormalities in this syndrome of unknown etiology (other than smoking) including short telomeres and mutations in the telomerase complex genes. There are also emphysematous lesions, in patients with familial pulmonary fibrosis, with mutations in the SFTPC gene (surfactant protein C), and reported cases of CPFE syndrome with SFTPC mutation. No large genetic studies have been conducted to date in the CPFE syndrome. Our main hypothesis is that the proportion of subjects with short telomeres is higher among patients with CPFE syndrome than in subjects of similar age with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis but without emphysema. It has previously been shown that mutations in the telomerase TERT or TERC genes are mostly found in people whose telomeres are abnormally short. The investigators propose to use that test to identify patients most likely carrying a mutation, and to seek, among them, the mutations in the TERT or TERC telomerase genes. The objective of the study is to compare the proportion of patients with short telomeres in the group of patients with CPFE syndrome to that of other patients (with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis without emphysema, or with emphysema without fibrosis).'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '80 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age between 18 and 80 years old.\n* Patient with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Or\n* Patient with emphysema Or\n* Patient with combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema syndrome Or\n* Patient reporting no chronic lung disease\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Other causes of interstitial lung disease or context:\n\n * Connective\n * Pneumonia drug\n * Pneumoconiosis\n * Sarcoidosis\n * histiocytosis, lymphangioleiomyomatosis, etc.\n* Refusal to participate in the study or to sign the consent\n* Inability to give informed about the information\n* Woman breastfeeding or pregnant\n* No coverage for Social Security\n* Deprivation of Civil Rights'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02439528', 'acronym': 'GENES-SEF', 'briefTitle': 'Genetics of the Combined Pulmonary Fibrosis and Emphysema Syndrome', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Hospices Civils de Lyon'}, 'officialTitle': 'Genetics of the Combined Pulmonary Fibrosis and Emphysema Syndrome', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '2013.819'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema syndrome', 'description': 'Genetic analysis on patients with combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema syndrome.', 'interventionNames': ['Genetic: Genetic analysis']}, {'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'Pulmonary fibrosis', 'description': 'Genetic analysis on patients with pulmonary fibrosis.', 'interventionNames': ['Genetic: Genetic analysis']}, {'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'Emphysema', 'description': 'Genetic analysis on patients with emphysema.', 'interventionNames': ['Genetic: Genetic analysis']}, {'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'Healthy subject', 'description': 'Genetic analysis on healthy subject.', 'interventionNames': ['Genetic: Genetic analysis']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Genetic analysis', 'type': 'GENETIC', 'description': 'One part of these patients is already included in a cohort: for them the blood sample will be centralized and then analyzed.\n\nThe other part of these patients will be recruited during the study: for them intervention will be blood samples for further genetic analysis.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema syndrome', 'Emphysema', 'Healthy subject', 'Pulmonary fibrosis']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '69677', 'city': 'Bron', 'country': 'France', 'facility': 'Hôpital pneumologique et cardiovasculaire Louis Pradel, HCL', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 45.73865, 'lon': 4.91303}}, {'zip': '38 043', 'city': 'Grenoble', 'country': 'France', 'facility': 'Hôpital Albert Michallon, CHU de Grenoble', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 45.17869, 'lon': 5.71479}}, {'zip': '42055', 'city': 'Saint-Etienne', 'country': 'France', 'facility': 'Hôpital Nord, CHU de Saint-Etienne', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 45.43389, 'lon': 4.39}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Vincent COTTIN, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Hospices Civils de Lyon'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Hospices Civils de Lyon', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
