- Abstract: Rationale: Several new drugs for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are in development. Tools are needed to assess whether these drugs benefit patients on outcomes that matter most to them. Health-related quality of life (HRQL) is one such outcome. It is influenced by many factors, but symptoms and their impacts are two strong drivers.Objectives: To develop a questionnaire to assess symptoms, disease impacts, and HRQL specifically for patients with IPF.Methods: Working with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration through the Drug Development Tool Qualification process, focus groups, concept elicitation, and cognitive debriefing interviews were conducted to inform the development of a 44-item pilot questionnaire. The pilot paper-and-pen questionnaire was migrated to an equivalent electronic version and field-tested in a 14-day study. Response data were subjected to psychometric testing, including exploratory factor analysis, item calibration using item response theory models, test-retest reliability, and validity testing.Measurements and Main Results: A total of 125 patients with IPF (62.4% men) completed the longitudinal study. The mean ± SD age of the cohort was 69 ± 7.60 years, and the mean FVC% predicted was 71 ± 20.0. After factor and item analyses, 35 items were retained, and these comprise the two modules (symptoms and impacts) of the Living with IPF (L-IPF) questionnaire. The L-IPF yields five scales demonstrating good psychometric properties, including correlation with concurrently collected FVC% predicted and the ability to discriminate between patients with differing levels of IPF severity.Conclusions: The L-IPF is a new questionnaire that assesses symptoms, disease impacts, and HRQL in patients with IPF.
