About this study
Official title: Randomized Controlled Trial Testing the Effect of Hydroxychloroquine Combined With Low-dose Corticosteroid Therapy in Pulmonary Sarcoidosis
"The reference treatment for pulmonary sarcoidosis is prolonged systemic corticosteroid therapy, which improves dyspnea, fatigue and respiratory function. However, corticosteroid therapy doesn't improve quality of life, possibly due to its adverse effects. Furthermore, in an international survey study, the first priority in treatment outcome for sarcoidosis patient was quality of life.
Hydroxychloroquine an antimalarial drug, has been shown to be effective in cutaneous and pulmonary forms of sarcoidosis but in studies with imperfect methodology. Our hypothesis is that hydroxychloroquine associated with low-dose corticosteroids improves lung function as much as ""conventional"" medium-dose corticosteroid therapy but with fewer side effects and a better quality of life in pulmonary sarcoidosis. "
Read the detailed description
"Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatosis of unknown etiology with almost systematic pulmonary involvement. The reference treatment for pulmonary sarcoidosis is prolonged systemic corticosteroid therapy, which improves dyspnea, fatigue and respiratory function. However, corticosteroid therapy doesn't improve quality of life, possibly due to its adverse effects, which are dose- and time-dependent, such as weight gain, diabetes, insomnia, hypertension. Furthermore, in an international survey study, the first priority in treatment outcome for sarcoidosis patient was quality of life. Recent optimizations have reduced the attack treatment duration from 3 to 1 month, but with a persistence of adverse effects appearing in the first months.
Hydroxychloroquine is an antimalarial drug, used for systemic lupus erythematosus with a very good benefit/risk ratio and low cost, but also for rheumatoid arthritis. Its anti-inflammatory effects involve inhibition of antigenic presentation, chemotaxis, phagocytosis, lymphocyte proliferation, cytokine production (e.g TNFα), or Toll-like receptors expression. These immunological mechanisms are also involved in the pathogenesis of sarcoidosis. In addition, Hydroxychloroquine decreases the risk of developing diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia or thrombotic events. Hydroxychloroquine has been shown to be effective in cutaneous and pulmonary forms of sarcoidosis, and in hypercalcemia, but in studies with imperfect methodology. Baltzan et al. showed that a maintenance treatment of hydroxychloroquine versus placebo reduced the risk of relapse and lung function decline in pulmonary sarcoidosis. Our hypothesis is that hydroxychloroquine associated with low-dose corticosteroids improves lung function as much as ""conventional"" medium-dose corticosteroid therapy but with fewer side effects and a better quality of life in pulmonary sarcoidosis. The main objective is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of the combination of hydroxychloroquine and low-dose corticosteroids versus medium-dose corticosteroid therapy on the improvement of respiratory function at 6 months.
The secondary objectives are to (i) demonstrate the superiority of the combination of hydroxychloroquine and low-dose corticosteroids versus medium-dose corticosteroid therapy at 3, 6 months and 1 year on general quality of life, respiratory quality of life, fatigue, adverse drug event, treatment compliance and (ii) demonstrate the non-inferiority of the combination of hydroxychloroquine and low-dose corticosteroids versus medium-dose corticosteroid therapy at 3, 6 months and 1 year on : respiratory function using complementary tools, respiratory symptoms, and activity of thoracic and extra-thoracic sarcoidosis.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Hydroxychloroquine + low-dose prednisone and Prednisone in people with Pulmonary Sarcoidosis, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris.
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 6 inclusion and 19 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 21 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
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 (+331.48.95.52.80, florence.jeny@aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Difference in percentage of the predicted forced vital capacity (FVC) between inclusion and 6 months (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT05247554, which also lists 7 linked publications.
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 21 Feb 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
