Filter by:This study is a prospective observational non-randomized clinical trial where all the participitants undergo the same procedure and every participitant's samples are compared to each other. The investigators conduct EBUS TBNA and EBUS TBMCB on all the study participants.The cryobiopsy samples are numbered to evaluate the number of biopsies needed to reach a definite diagnosis and to assess the added value of every sample taken from the same participitant. Every participitant's own samples are compared to each other and added value of EBUS TBMCB is defined as the difference in diagnostic yield between the EBUS TBNA alone and the combination of EBUS TBNA with EBUS TBMCB. Diagnostic yield is defined as the efficacy of the investigation module in reaching a definite diagnosis (percentage of cases with a definite diagnosis). Follow up four weeks after the procedure to assess the risk for postoperative complications.
To assess the frequency and risk factors of decreased bone mineral density (BMD) and vertebral fractures in Danish patients with sarcoidosis.
The goal of the study is to create a longitudinal study of patient reported outcomes for people living with sarcoidosis that maintains privacy. Patients report on the following: demographics, disease symptoms, diagnostic journey, provider experience, disease treatment, and burden of disease. The goal is to create a natural history of sarcoidosis, support research, and better understand the needs of the sarcoidosis community.
This randomized pilot clinical trial aims to examine whether sample collection with Franseen-type needles are effective for the diagnosis of sarcoidosis, as defined by improved sample quality for pathological diagnosis compared to the conventional Menghini-type needle.
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, adaptive, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, Pharmacodynamics (PD), and Pharmacokinetics (PK) of OATD-01 in the treatment of subjects with active pulmonary sarcoidosis.
Open-label Study to Evaluate the Long-term Safety and Durability of Effect of XTMAB-16 in Patients With Pulmonary Sarcoidosis With or Without Extra-pulmonary Involvement
The purpose of the CuDOSIS study is to examine the diagnostic value of activated macrophage imaging in patients with or under evaluation for cardiac sarcoidosis. The PET/CT tracer 64Cu-DOTATATE is used as a tool to identify activated macrophages. The trial is an open-label prospective study. The study will include 54 participants from the Department of Cardiology and the Department of Clinical Physiology, Nuclear Medicine, and PET at Rigshospitalet. Further, the study will include data from 22 patients with NET who have been scanned with 64Cu-DOTATATE PET/CT previously as negative controls. Participants will be included in the following groups: Group A: 22 patients with clinically suspected cardiac sarcoidosis Group B: 22 patients with known cardiac sarcoidosis Group C: Up to 10 patients with clinically suspected or confirmed acute lymphocytic myocarditis Group D: 22 patients with NET without known inflammatory heart disease who have previously been scanned with 64Cu-DOTATATE PET/CT as part of their routine diagnostic work-up or follow-up (control group)
Inhalation of beryllium can induce specific sensitization and diffuse pulmonary granulomatosis called chronic beryllium disease (CBD). The clinical, radiographic, and anatomopathological features of CBD are very similar to those of sarcoidosis, another granulomatosis, making its diagnosis difficult. In addition, the progression of CBD is poorly understood. The investigators hypothesis is that there are specific clinical, biological, anatomopathological, and radiological presentation specificities of CBD, as well as a worse prognosis compared to pulmonary sarcoidosis.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about sarcoidosis development after COVID-19 infection. The main question it aims to answer is: - prevalence of Sarcoidosis among patients previously infected with COVID-19. Participants will: - provide previous positive RT-PCR for COVID-19 - Have computed tomography of the Chest with suggestive findings of sarcoidosis - Have bronchoscopic guided biopsies and pathological analysis to detect number of patients with sarcoidosis.
Cardiac damage is the second leading cause of death in patients with sarcoidosis, after lung damage. Today's challenge is to diagnose the disease as effectively as possible, and to develop tools for better risk stratification, especially for sudden death, in order to better target therapies and implantable devices, such as corticoids and immunosuppressant. The hypothesis is that combined PET (Positron Emission Tomography)/MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) could be a relevant prognostic marker of progression, and would significantly improve diagnostic performance in patients with suspected cardiac sarcoidosis (CS). This study will also make it possible to distinguish sequellar fibrosis lesions from granulomatous lesions and assess the therapeutic response. Incorporating PET/MRI into the diagnostic strategy for patients with suspected CS could therefore improve their management.
