Active Clinical Trials, Surveys, and Registries

Registries

East Carolina University Sarcoidosis Registry (ECUSaR): An ongoing longitudinal registry and database of all patients seen in the East Carolina University (ECU) pulmonary clinic with pulmonary and extra pulmonary sarcoidosis.

This is an ongoing longitudinal registry of patients with sarcoidosis seen in the ECU pulmonary and sarcoidosis clinic. The purpose of the registry is to gather demographic, clinical, radiographic and other information that will allow us to learn more about sarcoidosis, available therapies and their effect on quality of life. Data collected will be evaluated for common familial and environmental factors that may be linked to the disease, so that better therapies may be developed for treating or even curing the disease. The patient database will also serve to identify and recruit sarcoidosis patients for future clinical studies and focus group discussions.

Surveys

Side effects of steroids on sarcoidosis patients – take this international survey

The “Side Effects of Steroid” survey is an IRB (Institutional Review Board) approved international online survey designed to bring to light the burden of steroidal medication on sarcoidosis patients. The survey has been designed by Sarcoidosis physician experts in collaboration with sarcoidosis patients. The survey is being distributed with the support of an international group of pulmonary and sarcoidosis advocacy groups. The survey is “unidentified” meaning that we are collecting no information that could be used to identify you.

Who can take the “Side Effects of Steroids” survey?

Any person who has been told they have sarcoidosis by a medical professional can take this survey. We welcome responses from patients who have and have not taken steroids for sarcoidosis.

What is the purpose of the “Side Effects of Steroids” survey?

The goals of the “Side Effects of Steroids” survey is to understand what side effects sarcoidosis patients experience from steroids to encourage…

  • Future processes to identify and prevent harmful effects of steroids.
  • Future research to develop treatment pathways that minimize side effects for sarcoidosis patients
  • Future research to identify new drugs for sarcoidosis

If you want to learn more about the survey, please click on the links to be taken to the survey. You may leave the survey at any time without saving your answers if you choose not to participate in the survey.

Clinical Trials

A seamless, Phase 1b/2 multiple ascending dose/proof of concept study of XTMAB-16 in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis with or without extrapulmonary manifestations.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about an investigational medicine called XTMAB- 16 that may help to treat Pulmonary Sarcoidosis. This new medicine is part of a group of medications known as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF a) inhibitors. Patients on 7.5 mg/day or prednisone or higher may qualify for this study if they are also on methotrexate or other immunosuppressive medication. The study consists of 2 parts, A and B. Part A will run for 26 weeks and include 9 visits. Part B will run for up to 40 weeks and include 14 visits.

A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Intravenous Efzofitimod in Patients with Pulmonary Sarcoidosis.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study comparing the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) Efzofitimod (given as 3 mg/Kg or 5 mg/Kg) versus placebo every 4 weeks after 48 weeks of treatment. This study will enroll adults with biopsy confirmed pulmonary sarcoidosis receiving stable treatment with oral steroids (prednisone or other), with or without other immunosuppressant therapy.
