NCT ID NCT02523092

First seen May 05, 2026 · Last updated Jun 17, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study tested whether Acthar gel could improve symptoms and lung function in people with sarcoidosis, a disease that causes inflammation in the lungs. Researchers also checked if a blood marker called CXCL9 could predict how well the treatment works. Only 2 people joined before the study was stopped early, so the results are very limited.
