Summary

This study will collect blood samples from 115 adults with cardiac sarcoidosis to look for tiny particles called exosomes that might show whether the disease is active or quiet. The goal is to develop a simple blood test that could help doctors monitor the condition without needing repeated PET scans. Participants will give blood during their regular care, and researchers will compare the results with their scan findings.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a simple blood test to monitor disease activity in cardiac sarcoidosis, reducing the need for repeated PET scans.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study, not a treatment trial. The biomarkers may not prove accurate enough to replace current imaging methods.
