Sarcoid Uveitis clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Lyon Sarcoid Uveitis Cohort

LUCS

Start date: January 1, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Sarcoidosis is a systemic disease with unknown etiology. Chronicity of the disease is observed in 1/3 of cases. Five percent of the affected patients are expected to die due to pulmonary worsening. After pulmonary complications, ocular complications are one of the most frequent complications. In hospital setting 2 to 15% of patients who come for initial uveitis diagnosis are after examination due to Sarcoidosis. Sarcoidosis diagnosis is based on paraclinical exams (biological, radiography) and histological confirmation. Corticotherapy (local or general) is usually used to cure sarcoid uveitis. In case of failure immunosuppressor or anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) can be used. In 10% of cases ocular symptoms including blindness are observed. Only treatment administrated quickly after diagnosis of sarcoid uveitis can prevent from ophthalmologic complications. The main objective of the Lyon Sarcoid Uveitis Cohort study is to analyze the relevance of the paraclinical exam for sarcoid uveitis diagnosis, and to define a better visual and extra-ophthalmologic prognosis and describe the therapeutic practice in our Department. This study is proposed to all patients diagnosed with Sarcoid uveitis with a histological confirmation and referred to the internal medicine department of the Croix-Rousse hospital, Lyon, France, for etiologic diagnosis or treatment.
