Sarc Fighter: Living with Sarcoidosis and other rare diseases

In Episode 91 of the FSR Sarc Fighter podcast, John shares two reports about developments in the treatment of sarcoidosis. He looks at recent studies published in Sarcoidosis News that show promise for aTyr Pharma's efzofitimod, currently in clinical trials, and also a report from Sweden that shows the difficulty in diagnosing neurosarcoidosis without an invasive and dangerous biopsy.
