Filter by:This study is designed to treat systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) patients with an autologous stem cell transplant using a regimen of immune suppressant drugs and chemotherapy that is less toxic to your heart.
This study will assess the mental health and clinical benefits of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) in patients with rheumatic disease who have anxiety or depression. MBSR, an interactive form of meditation that includes gentle yoga, will be taught by a certified instructor over an eight-week period. Mental health surveys will be conducted within one month of the study start and end as well as mid-course. Clinical assessments will be conducted within one-month of the study start and end.
This is a Phase 3 multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study assessing the efficacy and safety of lenabasum for the treatment of diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (SSc). Approximately 354 subjects will be enrolled in this study at about 60 sites in North America, Europe, Australia, and Asia. The planned duration of treatment with study drug is 52 weeks.
This is a phase IV, single-arm, open-label clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PLACENTEX ® Polydeoxyribonucleotide i.m. in patients with fibrotic and atrophic cutaneous lesions in scleroderma diseases during the inactive stage of the disease (experiencing dystrophic outcomes of the disease with no inflammatory component at the time of enrolment). The patients enrolled will be evaluated at study site at screening (V1), then after 3 months of treatment with PLACENTEX ® Polydeoxyribonucleotide (one vial per day for intra-muscular administration) (V2). After completion of the study treatment period, the patients will be followed for an additional period of 3 months without study medication, after which the patient will visit the site for the last visit (V3). 1 investigational site. 45 patients enrolled (included drop-outs).3 months of treatment with PLACENTEX ® Polydeoxyribonucleotide (one vial per day for intra-muscular administration).
A double-blinded, placebo-controlled study of Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) in 34 Systemic Sclerosis-Pulmonary Hypertension (SSc-PAH) patients. The study will determine safety and the primary outcome variability for DMF in treating SSc-PAH; the primary outcome of clinical efficacy in this pilot trial will be improvement in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD).
The purpose of the Duke Scleroderma Registry (DSScR) is to obtain information about scleroderma. This information could be used in future research to increase the understanding of disease mechanisms, treatments, and outcomes. This research may also help develop new therapies, novel measures of disease assessment or identify previously unknown manifestations of the diseases. A prospectively followed cohort is an integral component of future translational and clinical research programs. A registry for scleroderma would allow for information to be gleaned about patients in "real-world situations" in an effort to improve the reality, generalizability and applicability of information gathered.
The purpose of this trial was to compare two doses of abituzumab with placebo and determine whether abituzumab was more effective, safer, would be better tolerated and could provoke better immune response than placebo in the treatment of participants with SSc-ILD who already receive constant doses of mycophenolate.
This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of routine medical treatments of digital ulcers in patients with systemic sclerosis in a prospective cohort study.
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an auto-immune orphan disease mainly characterized by an alteration of the microvascular network, and by cutaneous and visceral fibrosis. Hands are frequently affected, as a consequence of ischemic phenomena and cutaneous fibrosis. . The injection of adipose autologous tissue is a common practice in plastic surgery, and has been known for over a century. Adipose tissue, originally used to increase volume, is also characterized by trophic properties associated to stromal vascular fraction (SVF), which contain multipotent stem cells, capable of tissue repair. Interestingly, some SVF cells can be angiogenic and anti-inflammatory, which could improve damage seen with SSc. A prior study (the SCLERADEC protocol: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01813279) has already allowed the safety and tolerance at 6 months of the subcutaneous injection of SVF in the fingers of twelve patients to be proven. The encouraging results have encouraged us to propose a trial which would bear on a higher number of patients and include a control group.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of JBT-101 in adult subjects with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis.
