NCT03324503

Brief Summary

This is a multicenter, single-arm, unblinded/open-label study of the effect size of HRCT endpoints in response to glucocorticoid induction therapy in subjects with a diagnosis of pulmonary sarcoidosis who have not received glucocorticoid as initial sarcoidosis therapy (≥ 20 mg/day prednisone or prednisolone) or other sarcoidosis therapy for at least 3 months prior to enrollment. This study will enroll a total of approximately 24 subjects.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from baseline in high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT)

    Is defined as measurements of lobar volumes total lung capacity (TLC) in response to glucocorticoid induction therapy in subjects with pulmonary sarcoidosis.

    Up to approximately 8 weeks

Study Arms (1)

Glucocorticoid ≥ 30 mg/day

EXPERIMENTAL

≥ 30 mg/day prednisone or prednisolone as per local clinical practice of sarcoidosis initial induction therapy will be taken orally preferably before, during, or immediately after meals or with food or milk, at approximately the same time of day for 8 weeks.

Drug: Glucocorticoid (prednisone or prednisolone)

Interventions

≥ 30 mg/day prednisone or prednisolone taken orally as per local clinical practice of sarcoidosis initial induction therapy

Also known as: prednisone or prednisolone
Glucocorticoid ≥ 30 mg/day

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 65 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subjects must satisfy the following criteria to be enrolled in the study:
  • Subject are male or female ≥ 18 and ≤ 65 years of age, inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent form (ICF).
  • Subject must understand and voluntarily sign an ICF prior to any study-related assessments/procedures being conducted.
  • Subject is willing and able to adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements.
  • Subject has not received glucocorticoid as initial sarcoidosis therapy (≥ 20 mg/day prednisone or prednisolone) or other sarcoidosis therapy for at least 3 months or 5 PK half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to enrollment.
  • Subjects have a diagnosis of pulmonary sarcoidosis:
  • According to the American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society/World Association of Sarcoidosis and other Granulomatous Disorders (ATS/ERS/WASOG) statement, supported by clinical presentation and biopsy-proven noncaseating granulomatous inflammation with no alternative cause of the granulomas;
  • With radiographic stage II or III disease;
  • With dyspnea (MRC grade ≥ 1);
  • With an FVC of ≥ 45% and ≤ 80% of predicted normal value at screening;
  • With or without concurrent extra-pulmonary sarcoidosis;
  • Without clinically significant neurosarcoidosis or cardiac sarcoidosis;
  • Without history of resistance or refractoriness to glucocorticoid induction therapy.
  • Subject is in good health (except for sarcoidosis) as determined by a physical examination at screening.
  • a. Stable and mild syndromes associated with normal ageing, that are not expected to affect safe participation or data interpretation are allowed. Examples include, but are not limited to, systemic hypertension, hypothyroidism, prostatic hypertrophy, etc.
  • +10 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • The presence of any of the following will exclude a subject from enrollment. If the result(s) do not satisfy eligibility criteria, subjects will be ineligible to enroll in the study and will be considered a screen failure. Subjects may be re-screened with the approval of the medical monitor:
  • Subject has any significant medical condition, laboratory abnormality, neurological disease or psychiatric illness that would prevent the subject from safely completing the study. Prior evidence of neurological disease must be documented.
  • Subject has any condition that confounds the ability to interpret data from the study.
  • Subject is a pregnant or a nursing female.
  • Subject has received another interventional investigational drug for sarcoidosis within the 3 months prior to screening or 5 PK half-lives, whichever is longer\*.
  • Subject has clinically significant lung disease, other than sarcoidosis, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), interstitial lung disease (ILD) or lung cancer.
  • a. Subject has a history of significant (greater than a wedge) lung resection.
  • Subject is receiving therapy for sarcoidosis associated pulmonary hypertension, or has an indication for such therapy.
  • Subject has uncontrolled diabetes and other contraindications to glucocorticoid therapy.
  • Subject has a history of listeriosis, coccidioidomycosis, histoplasmosis, blastomycosis, treated or untreated tuberculosis or exposure to individuals with tuberculosis.
  • Subject is an active smoker or has \> 10 pack-year smoking history. Previous smokers must have discontinued smoking for at least 1 year.
  • Subject is unable to perform any study-related procedure or maneuver.
  • Subject has had any biologic anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapy within the previous year.
  • Subject has active infection requiring treatment within 30 days prior to screening\*.
  • Subject has a positive QuantiFERON-TB Gold tuberculosis test.
  • +10 more criteria
