In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Antibiotic Regimen and Placebo Regimen for Sarcoidosis. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Growing research from independent laboratories provide an association between mycobacteria and sarcoidosis. More recent immunologic and molecular studies demonstrate immune responses to mycobacteria virulence factors. The purpose of this study is to assess if administration of anti-mycobacterial drug therapy will aid in resolution of cutaneous sarcoidosis lesions.
