There is limited data regarding antifibrotics in sarcoidosis-associated pulmonary fibrosis. The INBUILD study of nintedanib in progressive pulmonary fibrosis did include a small group of patients with fibrotic sarcoidosis. The overall results did show a slowing in FVC loss, but specific information ...
