Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Germline mutations of telomere-related genes (TRG) induce multiorgan dysfunction, and liver-specific manifestations have not been clearly outlined. We aimed to describe TRG mutations-associated liver diseases. APPROACH AND RESULTS Retrospective multicenter analysis of liver disease (transaminases > 30 IU/L and/or abnormal liver imaging) in patients with TRG mutations. Main measurements were characteristics, outcomes, and risk factors of liver disease in a TRG mutations cohort. The prevalence of liver disease was compared to a community-based control group (n = 1190) stratified for age and matched 1:3 for known risk factors of liver disease. Among 132 patients with TRG mutations, 95 (72%) had liver disease, with associated lung, blood, skin, rheumatological, and ophthalmological TRG diseases in 82%, 77%, 55%, 39%, and 30% of cases, respectively. Liver biopsy was performed in 52/95 patients, identifying porto-sinusoidal vascular disease in 48% and advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis in 15%. After a follow-up of 21 months (12-54), ascites, hepato-pulmonary syndrome, variceal bleeding, and HCC occurred in 14%, 13%, 13%, and 2% of cases, respectively. Five-year liver transplantation-free survival was 69%. A FIB-4 score ≥ 3·25 and ≥1 risk factor for cirrhosis were associated with poor liver transplantation-free survival. Liver disease was more frequent in patients with TRG mutations than in the paired control group [80/396, (20%)], OR 12.9 (CI 95%: 7.8-21.3, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS TRG mutations significantly increase the risk of developing liver disease. Although symptoms may be mild, they may be associated with severe disease. Porto-sinusoidal vascular disease and cirrhosis were the most frequent lesions, suggesting that the mechanism of action is multifactorial.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) in adults and children (chILD) are a heterogeneous group of lung disorders leading to inflammation, abnormal tissue repair and scarring of the lung parenchyma often resulting in respiratory failure and death. Inherited factors directly cause, or contribute significantly to the risk of developing ILD, so called familial pulmonary fibrosis (FPF), and monogenic forms may have a poor prognosis and respond poorly to current treatments. Specific, variant-targeted or precision treatments are lacking. Clinical trials of repurposed drugs, anti-fibrotic medications and specific treatments are emerging but for many patients no interventions exist. We convened an expert working group to develop an overarching framework to address the existing research gaps in basic, translational, and clinical research and identified areas for future development of preclinical models, candidate medications and innovative clinical trials. In this Position Paper, we summarise working group discussions, recommendations, and unresolved questions concerning precision treatments for FPF.

High risk of lung cancer in surfactant-related gene variant carriers. Eur Respir J 2024; 63:2301809. [PMID: 38575158 PMCID: PMC11063619 DOI: 10.1183/13993003.01809-2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2023] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Several rare surfactant-related gene (SRG) variants associated with interstitial lung disease are suspected to be associated with lung cancer, but data are missing. We aimed to study the epidemiology and phenotype of lung cancer in an international cohort of SRG variant carriers. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study of all adults with SRG variants in the OrphaLung network and compared lung cancer risk with telomere-related gene (TRG) variant carriers. RESULTS We identified 99 SRG adult variant carriers (SFTPA1 (n=18), SFTPA2 (n=31), SFTPC (n=24), ABCA3 (n=14) and NKX2-1 (n=12)), including 20 (20.2%) with lung cancer (SFTPA1 (n=7), SFTPA2 (n=8), SFTPC (n=3), NKX2-1 (n=2) and ABCA3 (n=0)). Among SRG variant carriers, the odds of lung cancer was associated with age (OR 1.04, 95% CI 1.01-1.08), smoking (OR 20.7, 95% CI 6.60-76.2) and SFTPA1/SFTPA2 variants (OR 3.97, 95% CI 1.39-13.2). Adenocarcinoma was the only histological type reported, with programmed death ligand-1 expression ≥1% in tumour cells in three samples. Cancer staging was localised (I/II) in eight (40%) individuals, locally advanced (III) in two (10%) and metastatic (IV) in 10 (50%). We found no somatic variant eligible for targeted therapy. Seven cancers were surgically removed, 10 received systemic therapy, and three received the best supportive care according to their stage and performance status. The median overall survival was 24 months, with stage I/II cancers showing better survival. We identified 233 TRG variant carriers. The comparative risk (subdistribution hazard ratio) for lung cancer in SRG patients versus TRG patients was 18.1 (95% CI 7.1-44.7). CONCLUSIONS The high risk of lung cancer among SRG variant carriers suggests specific screening and diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The benefit of regular computed tomography scan follow-up should be evaluated.

The significance of multidisciplinary team meetings in diagnosing and managing childhood interstitial lung disease within the RespiRare network. Pediatr Pulmonol 2024; 59:417-425.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Childhood Interstitial Lung Disease (chILD) represents a rare and severe group of diseases for which the etiologic workup, classification, and management remain a challenge for most pediatric pulmonologists. In France in 2018, the RespiRare network established the first multidisciplinary team meetings (MDTm) dedicated to chILD. This study aims to investigate the impact of MDTm in chILD diagnosis and management as well as user satisfaction. METHODS The MDTm took place on a monthly basis through video conferences. The participants consisted of a quorum and included pediatric pulmonologists, radiologists, geneticists, and pulmonologists, with an average of 10.5 participants per meeting. Patients provided consent to participate in MDTm and for data collection. Data were retrospectively extracted from MDTm reports. To evaluate the usefulness of the MDTm and the satisfaction of the participants, a survey was sent by email at least 3 months after the MDTm to the participants. RESULTS A total of 216 chILD cases were discussed during 56 MDTm sessions. The median age of onset was 0.5 years (interquartile range 0-7). The MDTm sessions resulted in the correction of chILD etiology in 25% of cases (neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia of infancy 17%, surfactant metabolism disorder 8%, pulmonary alveolar proteinosis 4%, hemosiderosis 3%, sarcoidosis 3%, and others 34%), and chILD was ruled out in 7% of cases. A change in therapy was proposed for 46% of cases. User satisfaction was significant, particularly regarding their confidence in managing these rare diseases. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION Dedicated MDTm sessions offer a unique opportunity to enhance chILD etiologic diagnosis and management, leading to increased physician knowledge and confidence in managing these patients.

Abstract
Genetic predisposition to pulmonary fibrosis has been confirmed by the discovery of several gene mutations that cause pulmonary fibrosis. Although genetic sequencing of familial pulmonary fibrosis (FPF) cases is embedded in routine clinical practice in several countries, many centres have yet to incorporate genetic sequencing within interstitial lung disease (ILD) services and proper international consensus has not yet been established. An international and multidisciplinary expert Task Force (pulmonologists, geneticists, paediatrician, pathologist, genetic counsellor, patient representative and librarian) reviewed the literature between 1945 and 2022, and reached consensus for all of the following questions: 1) Which patients may benefit from genetic sequencing and clinical counselling? 2) What is known of the natural history of FPF? 3) Which genes are usually tested? 4) What is the evidence for telomere length measurement? 5) What is the role of common genetic variants (polymorphisms) in the diagnostic workup? 6) What are the optimal treatment options for FPF? 7) Which family members are eligible for genetic sequencing? 8) Which clinical screening and follow-up parameters may be considered in family members? Through a robust review of the literature, the Task Force offers a statement on genetic sequencing, clinical management and screening of patients with FPF and their relatives. This proposal may serve as a basis for a prospective evaluation and future international recommendations.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases in children of genetic origin. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) in children (chILD) encompasses a heterogeneous group of rare respiratory disorders, most of which are chronic and severe. In more and more of these cases, a genetic cause has been identified. As of now, the main mutations have been localized in the genes encoding the surfactant proteins (SP)-C (SFTPC), SP-B (SFTPB), their transporter ATP-binding cassette, family 1, member 3 (ABCA3), transcription factor NK2 homeobox 1 (NKX2-1) and, more rarely, SP-A1 (SFTPA1) or SP-A2 (SFTPA2). Pediatric pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is associated with mutations in CSF2RA, CSF2RB, and MARS; more recently, mutations in STING1 and COPA have been associated with specific auto-inflammatory disorders including ILD manifestations. The relationships between the molecular abnormalities and the phenotypic expressions generally remain poorly understood. In the coming years, it is expected that newly identified molecular defects will help to more accurately predict disease courses and to produce individualized targeted therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Unraveling the genetic background in a significant proportion of patients with both sporadic and familial IPF provided new insights into the pathogenic pathways of pulmonary fibrosis. AIM The aim of the present study is to overview the clinical significance of genetics in IPF. PERSPECTIVE It is fascinating to realize the so-far underestimated but dynamically increasing impact that genetics has on aspects related to the pathophysiology, accurate and early diagnosis, and treatment and prevention of this devastating disease. Genetics in IPF have contributed as no other in unchaining the disease from the dogma of a "a sporadic entity of the elderly, limited to the lungs" and allowed all scientists, but mostly clinicians, all over the world to consider its many aspects and "faces" in all age groups, including its co-existence with several extra pulmonary conditions from cutaneous albinism to bone-marrow and liver failure. CONCLUSION By providing additional evidence for unsuspected characteristics such as immunodeficiency, impaired mucus, and surfactant and telomere maintenance that very often co-exist through the interaction of common and rare genetic variants in the same patient, genetics have created a generous and pluralistic yet unifying platform that could lead to the understanding of the injurious and pro-fibrotic effects of many seemingly unrelated extrinsic and intrinsic offending factors. The same platform constantly instructs us about our limitations as well as about the heritability, the knowledge and the wisdom that is still missing.

Abstract
Germline genetic defects impairing telomere length maintenance may result in severe medical conditions in humans, from aplastic anemia and myeloid neoplasms to interstitial lung disease and liver cirrhosis, from childhood (dyskeratosis congenita) to old age (pulmonary fibrosis). The molecular mechanisms underlying these clinically distinct disorders are pathologically excessive telomere erosion, limiting cell proliferation and differentiation, tissue regeneration, and increasing genomic instability. Recent findings also indicate that telomere shortening imbalances stem cell fate and is associated with an abnormal inflammatory response and the senescent-associated secretory phenotype. Bone marrow failure is the most common phenotype in patients with telomere diseases. Pulmonary fibrosis is a typical phenotype in older patients, and disease progression appears faster than in pulmonary fibrosis not associated with telomeropathies. Liver cirrhosis may present in isolation or in combination with other phenotypes. Diagnosis is based on clinical suspicion and may be confirmed by telomere length measurement and genetic testing. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques have improved genetic testing; today, at least 16 genes have been implicated in telomeropathies. NGS also allows tracking of clonal hematopoiesis and malignant transformation. Patients with telomere diseases are at high risk of developing cancers, including myeloid neoplasms and head and neck cancer. However, treatment options are still limited. Transplant modalities (bone marrow, lung, and liver) may be definitive to the respective organ involvement but limited by donor availability, comorbidities, and impact on other affected organs. In clinical trials, androgens elongate telomeres of peripheral blood leukocytes and improve hematopoiesis. Further understanding of how telomere erosion impairs organ function and how somatic mutations evolve in the hematopoietic tissue may help develop new strategies to treat and prevent telomere diseases.

Abstract
Patients with familial pulmonary fibrosis represent a subset of patients with pulmonary fibrosis in whom inherited gene variation predisposes them to disease development. In the appropriate setting, genetic testing allows for personalized assessment of disease, recognition of clinically relevant extrapulmonary manifestations, and assessing susceptibility in unaffected relatives. However currently, the use of genetic testing is inconsistent, partly because of the lack of guidance regarding high-yield scenarios in which the results of genetic testing can inform clinical decision-making. To address this, the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation commissioned a genetic testing work group comprising pulmonologists, geneticists, and genetic counselors from the United States to provide guidance on genetic testing in patients with pulmonary fibrosis. This CHEST special feature presents a concise review of these proceedings and reviews pulmonary fibrosis susceptibility, clinically available genetic testing methods, and clinical scenarios in which genetic testing should be considered.

Abstract
Genetic studies of familial forms of interstitial lung disease (ILD) have led to the discovery of telomere-related gene (TRG) mutations (TERT, TERC, RTEL1, PARN, DKC1, TINF2, NAF1, NOP10, NHP2, ACD, ZCCH8) in approximately 30% of familial ILD forms. ILD patients with TRG mutation are also subject to extra-pulmonary (immune-hematological, hepatic and/or mucosal-cutaneous) manifestations. TRG mutations may be associated not only with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), but also with non-IPF ILDs, including idiopathic and secondary ILDs, such as hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP). The presence of TRG mutation may also be associated with an accelerated decline of forced vital capacity (FVC) or poorer prognosis after lung transplantation, notwithstanding which, usual ILD treatments may be proposed. Lastly, patients and their relatives are called upon to reduce their exposure to environmental lung toxicity, and are likely to derive benefit from specific genetic counseling and pre-symptomatic genetic testing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Genetic analysis is emerging for interstitial lung diseases (ILDs); however, ILD practices are not yet standardized. We surveyed patients', relatives' and pulmonologists' experiences and needs on genetic testing in ILD to evaluate the current situation and identify future needs. METHODS A clinical epidemiologist (MT) together with members of the ERS taskforce and representatives of the European Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and related disorders Federation (EU-IPFF) patient organisation developed a survey for patients, relatives and pulmonologists. Online surveys consisted of questions on five main topics: awareness of hereditary ILD, the provision of information, genetic testing, screening of asymptomatic relatives and clinical impact of genetic analysis in ILD. RESULTS Survey respondents consisted of 458 patients with ILD, 181 patients' relatives and 352 pulmonologists. Most respondents think genetic testing can be useful, particularly for explaining the cause of disease, predicting its course, determining risk for developing disease and the need to test relatives. Informing patients and relatives on genetic analysis is primarily performed by the pulmonologist, but 88% (218) of pulmonologists identify a need for more information and 96% (240) ask for guidelines on genetic testing in ILD. A third of the pulmonologists who would offer genetic testing currently do not offer a genetic test, primarily because they have limited access to genetic tests. Following genetic testing, 72% (171) of pulmonologists may change the diagnostic work-up and 57% (137) may change the therapeutic approach. CONCLUSION This survey shows that there is wide support for implementation of genetic testing in ILD and a high need for information, guidelines and access to testing among patients, their relatives and pulmonologists.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) or diffuse parenchymal lung diseases (DPLD) comprise a large number of disorders. Disease definition and classification allow advanced and personalized judgements on clinical disease, risks for genetic or environmental transmissions, and precision medicine treatments. Registers collect specific rare entities and use ontologies for a precise description of complex phenotypes. Here we present a brief history of ILD classification systems from adult and pediatric pneumology. We center on an etiologic classification, with four main categories: lung-only (native parenchymal) disorders, systemic disease-related disorders, exposure-related disorders, and vascular disorders. Splitting diseases into molecularly defined entities is key for precision medicine and the identification of novel entities. Lumping diseases targeted by similar diagnostic or therapeutic principles is key for clinical practice and register work, as our experience with the European children’s ILD register (chILD-EU) demonstrates. The etiologic classification favored combines pediatric and adult lung diseases in a single system and considers genomics and other -omics as central steps towards the solution of “idiopathic” lung diseases. Future tasks focus on a systems’ medicine approach integrating all data and bringing precision medicine closer to the patients.

Abstract
The high prevalence of lung cancer in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (3–30%) has been confirmed by several studies, pointing to specific diagnostic and therapeutic issues. The co-occurrence is associated with worse survival than with each disease alone [1]. Because cigarette smoking is a risk factor for both diseases, smoking is an ideal culprit for their co-occurrence, despite several common pathogenic mechanisms such as common genetic risk factors. Germline surfactant-associated genes mutations are associated with ILD and increased risk of lung cancerhttps://bit.ly/3CkkXgD

Abstract
BACKGROUND Idiopathic Non-Specific Interstitial Pneumonia (iNSIP) is a rare interstitial lung disease, diagnosed, by definition, on the basis of a multidisciplinary team discussion (MDD). Association with an autoimmune background has been suggested in iNSIP. AIMS To test the feasibility of conducting a multinational MDD to review the diagnosis in iNSIP cases and to estimate the emergence of connective tissue disease (CTD) during follow-up. METHODS Investigators from three expert centers (Denmark, Estonia and Norway) met and discussed cases of biopsy-proven iNSIP at an international MDD. The cases were previously diagnosed at a national level between 2004 and 2014. Based on clinical, radiographic and pathological data, the diagnosis of iNSIP was re-evaluated and a consensus diagnosis was made. Cases incompatible with iNSIP were excluded. Relevant data were registered comprising any development of CTD. RESULTS In total, 31 cases were discussed and 23 patients were included with a diagnosis of iNSIP. The mean follow-up time was 57 months. None of the patients developed CTD according to the rheumatologic criteria during the follow up period. Four patients (17.4%) met the criteria for interstitial pneumonia with autoimmune features. CONCLUSION We found that an international MDD was a feasible and valuable tool in the retrospective diagnostic evaluation of iNSIP. Diagnosis was changed in a statistically significant number of patients by our international MDD team. None of the patients developed CTD during follow-up.

Abstract
Lysosomes are intracellular organelles that are responsible for degrading and recycling macromolecules. Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are a group of inherited diseases caused by mutations affecting genes that encode the function of the lysosomal enzymes. Three LSDs are associated with lung involvement and/or interstitial lung disease (ILD): Gaucher disease (GD); Niemann-Pick disease, also known as acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD); and Fabry disease (FD). In GD and in ASMD, analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and lung biopsy can be informative, showing foamy cells. In GD, ILD is rare. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) has been available since 1991 and has greatly changed the natural history of GD, with pulmonary failure and death reported before the ERT era. In ASMD, ILD is frequent and is usually associated with spleen enlargement, low platelet cell count and low level of high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol. Results of ERT are promising regarding preliminary results of olipudase alfa in paediatric and adult ASMD populations. The most frequent respiratory manifestation in FD is COPD-like symptoms regardless of smoking habit and dyspnoea due to congestive heart failure. Early diagnosis of these three LSDs is crucial to prevent irreversible organ damage. Early initiation of ERT can, at least in part, prevent organ failure.

Abstract
Genes involved in the production of pulmonary surfactant are crucial for the development and maintenance of healthy lungs. Germline mutations in surfactant-related genes cause a spectrum of severe monogenic pulmonary diseases in patients of all ages. The majority of affected patients present at a very young age, however, a considerable portion of patients have adult-onset disease. Mutations in surfactant-related genes are present in up to 8% of adult patients with familial interstitial lung disease (ILD) and associate with the development of pulmonary fibrosis and lung cancer.High disease penetrance and variable expressivity underscore the potential value of genetic analysis for diagnostic purposes. However, scarce genotype-phenotype correlations and insufficient knowledge of mutation-specific pathogenic processes hamper the development of mutation-specific treatment options.This article describes the genetic origin of surfactant-related lung disease and presents spectra for gene, age, sex and pulmonary phenotype of adult carriers of germline mutations in surfactant-related genes.

Telomeres in Interstitial Lung Disease. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10071384.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) encompass a group of conditions involving fibrosis and/or inflammation of the pulmonary parenchyma. Telomeres are repetitive DNA sequences at chromosome ends which protect against genome instability. At each cell division, telomeres shorten, but the telomerase complex partially counteracts progressive loss of telomeres by catalysing the synthesis of telomeric repeats. Once critical telomere shortening is reached, cell cycle arrest or apoptosis are triggered. Telomeres progressively shorten with age. A number of rare genetic mutations have been identified in genes encoding for components of the telomerase complex, including telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) and telomerase RNA component (TERC), in familial and, less frequently, in sporadic fibrotic ILDs. Defects in telomerase result in extremely short telomeres. More rapidly progressive disease is observed in fibrotic ILD patients with telomere gene mutations, regardless of underlying diagnosis. Associations with common single nucleotide polymorphisms in telomere related genes have also been demonstrated for various ILDs. Shorter peripheral blood telomere lengths compared to age-matched healthy individuals are found in a proportion of patients with fibrotic ILDs, and in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) have been linked to worse survival, independently of disease severity. Greater susceptibility to immunosuppressant-induced side effects in patients with short telomeres has been described in patients with IPF and with fibrotic HP. Here, we discuss recent evidence for the involvement of telomere length and genetic variations in the development, progression, and treatment of fibrotic ILDs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multidisciplinary discussion (MDD) is widely recommended for patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), but published primary data from MDD has been scarce, and factors influencing MDD other than chest computed tomography (CT) and lung histopathology interpretations have not been well-described. METHODS Single institution MDD of 179 patients with ILD. RESULTS MDD consensus clinical diagnoses included autoimmune-related ILD, chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, smoking-related ILD, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, medication-induced ILD, occupation-related ILD, unclassifiable ILD, and a few less common pulmonary disorders. In 168 of 179 patients, one or more environmental exposures or pertinent features of the medical history were identified, including recreational/avocational, residential, and occupational exposures, systemic autoimmune disease, malignancy, medication use, and family history. The MDD process demonstrated the importance of comprehensively assessing these exposures and features, beyond merely noting their presence, for rendering consensus clinical diagnoses. Precise, well-defined chest CT and lung histopathology interpretations were rendered at MDD, including usual interstitial pneumonia, nonspecific interstitial pneumonia, and organizing pneumonia, but these interpretations were associated with a variety of MDD consensus clinical diagnoses, demonstrating their nonspecific nature in many instances. In 77 patients in which MDD consensus diagnosis differed from referring diagnosis, assessment of environmental exposures and medical history was found retrospectively to be the most impactful factor. CONCLUSIONS A comprehensive assessment of environmental exposures and pertinent features of the medical history guided MDD. In addition to rendering consensus clinical diagnoses, MDD presented clinicians with opportunities to initiate environmental remediation, behavior modification, or medication alteration likely to benefit individual patients with ILD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) can be caused by mutations in the SFTPA1 and SFTPA2 genes, which encode the surfactant protein (SP) complex SP-A. Only 11 SFTPA1 or SFTPA2 mutations have so far been reported worldwide, of which five have been functionally assessed. In the framework of ILD molecular diagnosis, we identified 14 independent patients with pathogenic SFTPA1 or SFTPA2 mutations. The present study aimed to functionally assess the 11 different mutations identified and to accurately describe the disease phenotype of the patients and their affected relatives. METHODS The consequences of the 11 SFTPA1 or SFTPA2 mutations were analysed both in vitro, by studying the production and secretion of the corresponding mutated proteins and ex vivo, by analysing SP-A expression in lung tissue samples. The associated disease phenotypes were documented. RESULTS For the 11 identified mutations, protein production was preserved but secretion was abolished. The expression pattern of lung SP-A available in six patients was altered and the family history reported ILD and/or lung adenocarcinoma in 13 out of 14 families (93%). Among the 28 SFTPA1 or SFTPA2 mutation carriers, the mean age at ILD onset was 45 years (range 0.6-65 years) and 48% underwent lung transplantation (mean age 51 years). Seven carriers were asymptomatic. DISCUSSION This study, which expands the molecular and clinical spectrum of SP-A disorders, shows that pathogenic SFTPA1 or SFTPA2 mutations share similar consequences for SP-A secretion in cell models and in lung tissue immunostaining, whereas they are associated with a highly variable phenotypic expression of disease, ranging from severe forms requiring lung transplantation to incomplete penetrance.

Abstract
Heterozygous missense mutations in COPA, encoding coatomer protein subunit alpha (COPA), cause an interferonopathy mainly associating lung, joint and kidney involvement. This rare autoinflammatory disease is characterised by variable expression and a remarkably high frequency of clinical non-penetrance. Lung features, predominantly chronic diffuse alveolar haemorrhage (DAH), are observed in almost patients and can result in end-stage respiratory insufficiency. The initially described phenotype was broadened to include isolated DAH or lupus nephritis. Rare manifestations reminiscent of other monogenic interferonopathies occur. This indicates the need for careful clinical evaluation in patients with suspicion or diagnosis of COPA syndrome. Considering the dominant inheritance model and the highly variable phenotype, ranging from severe multi-organic disorder to non-penetrance, a careful family screening is recommended. New insights in disease pathogenesis have linked COPA mutations to STING-mediated interferon signalling. Beside a variable efficacy of 'classical' immunosuppressive drugs, Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors constitute a promising treatment in COPA syndrome, and further targeted therapies are awaited.
