Outcome Study of Sarcoidosis: a New Paraneoplastic Syndrome in Patient With Cancer
Development of cancer following sarcoidosis has been studied in the past, but, little is
known about the development of sarcoidosis following cancer. Investigators proposed an
association between cancer and sarcoidosis previously. Investigators suggested that
sarcoidosis could be a paraneoplastic disease.
The current project is a comprehensive study of paraneoplastic sarcoidosis disease.
The aim of the study is to find an association between sarcoidosis and cancer and to
determine the outcome of sarcoidosis in patients with cancer.
This is a retrospective single-center, observational study for collecting data on patients
with sarcoidosis and cancer in UMH and Sylvester Cancer Center. The study initially involves
populating sarcoidosis patients seen at UMH and Sylvester Cancer Canter during the study
period. This will add our knowledge about the characteristics of this novel paraneoplastic
syndrome and its effects on prognosis of sarcoidosis and cancer. Investigators will also
generate relevant hypotheses for future mechanistic studies.
Results of this study will be of interest to physicians, administrative and public health
authorities.

authorities.
The purpose of this study is to develop a clinical dataset of sarcoidosis patients with a
diagnosis of cancer who are categorized by date of birth, sex, race/ethnicity, clinical
information, laboratory and imaging information, time of sarcoidosis onset, cancer type and
treatment, time of cancer diagnosis, stage and grade.
A clinical database of sarcoidosis patients with cancer that can be utilized by the
University of Miami faculty, fellows and their collaborators to investigate the relationship
between sarcoidosis and cancer will be made.
