Outcome results
Safety of Abatacept in Progressive Pulmonary Sarcoidosis.
Adverse events that are considered by the investigator to be reasonably or probably related to Abatacept.
Time frame: 24 weeks and 52 weeks
Population: Since this study was designed to be a safety study, we chose safety as the primary outcome. Any change of symptoms from baseline was considered possibly related to the study drug, although unlikely. The study was discontinued due to funding withdrawal caused by the principal investigator switching institutions.
