Such an approach requires the ability to accurate risk stratify RA patients. With only a few recognized clinical risk factors for RA-ILD, a growing body of evidence on peripheral biomarkers for RA-ILD appears well suited to support a precision medicine approach. There is a paucity of evidence to guide management after RA-ILD diagnosis. While initial trials of antifibrotics have been conducted in RA-ILD and show the potential to slow the rate of pulmonary function decline, there have been no randomized trials of immunomodulatory therapies in RA-ILD. Supporting such trials, and addressing the barriers to conducting them, is a high priority.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Robust characterization of peripheral biomarkers in large, RA populations is essential to inform a precision medicine approach to RA-ILD identification.
