Hi,
The only trial as of right now that I could find was from ClinicalTrials.gov. Its a trial looking into the genetics abnormalities for your condition. The link to the page is below:
http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00001532?cond=Sarcoidosis&state1=NA%3 AUS%3AMA&state2=NA%3AUS%3ANH&state3=NA%3AUS%3ARI&rank=1
If you contact info@ciscrp.org they will send or email you a free 'Education before Participation' brochure to help educate you about clinical trials. Its a great resource. Good Luck!

Hi Powers,
I just quickly read a couple of large lettered sentences and was disappointed when it said lung sarc. I will read more into it. I have systemic sarc and having a hard time to be treated and have my other issues listed as sarc related too.
Thanks bunches for your time

Here is a link to the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research research page
http://www.stopsarcoidosis.org/research/clinicaltrials.htm
I don't see any in Mass, but there are a few in NJ if you are able to do any traveling. Some, if not most, trials reimburse for hotel and gas and food when the participant needs to travel to the study sight.
This may be the place you can use to watch for possible trials closer to home, or call the foundation and talk to them directly.
