Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with mediastino-pulmonary sarcoidosis receiving or not receiving treatment for their sarcoidosis. Subjects treated for their sarcoidosis (corticosteroids and/or immunosuppressants) are not excluded because of two recent cases reported of multi-treated patients in which an involvement of the JAK/STAT pathway was demonstrated.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with a diagnosis of mediastinopulmonary sarcoidosis made according to ATS / ERS / WASOG criteria
  • Or patient suspected of having mediastino-pulmonary sarcoidosis, without any other probable causal factor identified on the usual standard examination at the time of the sample with the need for diagnostic confirmation at the end of the study according to the criteria of the ATS / ERS / WASOG
  • Sarcoidosis with stage 1 to 4 pulmonary involvement
  • Patients who had a chest CT scan in the 6 months preceding the sample. Examination carried out as part of routine care

Who cannot join

  • Pregnancy.
  • Opposition expressed to participation in the study.
  • Patients on State Medical Aid.

About this study

Recent studies suggest that the JAK/STAT signaling pathway constitutes a new step in the clinical and therapeutic progress of sarcoidosis. Further investigations are necessary to identify the most suitable patients to receive treatment targeting this pathway, in particular in cases of severe sarcoidosis refractory to the various therapeutic lines.

Read the detailed description

The investigators hypothesize that the JAK/STAT signaling pathway constitutes a new step in the clinical and therapeutic progress of sarcoidosis, in particular in cases of severe sarcoidosis refractory to the various therapeutic lines. The main objective of this proposal is to evaluate the presence and stage of activation of the JAK/STAT pathway in PBMCs from inactive and active sarcoidosis patients. The second objective will be to determine the role of the JAK/STAT pathway in the formation and maintenance of granulomas and their association with the severity of sarcoidosis and fibrogenesis.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. JAK/STAT familly numbers protein expression in PBMCs

    Evaluation will be carried out by:

    • studying the expression of members of the JAK/STAT pathway, the expression of cytokines and chemokines phagocytosis and macrophage differentiation the expression of cytokines and chemokines

    Measured: 1 year after inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sarcoidosis and JAK-STAT Pathway Deregulation, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Florence JENY, MD (0148955129, florence.jeny@aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

JAK/STAT familly numbers protein expression in PBMCs (time frame: 1 year after inclusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04751279, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Nov 2023.
