RENEW Scleroderma: A Peer-Mentored, Web Intervention for Resilience-based, Energy Management to Enhance Wellbeing and Fatigue
The researchers seek to understand if the Resilience-based, Energy Management to Enhance Wellbeing and Fatigue (RENEW) program helps with scleroderma symptom management and disease burden. The researchers think that those participants who receive the intervention will have clinically meaningful changes of symptom management and disease burden.

Pertinence Clinique de l'échographie Thoracique Pour le Diagnostic précoce de la Pneumopathie Interstitielle Diffuse de la sclérodermie systémique - Etude Pilote
Diffuse interstitial lung disease (PID) is the leading cause of death in systemic scleroderma (SSc). Major progress has recently been made in its therapeutic management. Early diagnosis is essential to optimize this management. Current diagnostic techniques are based on high-resolution computed tomography on the thorax (HRCT) and pulmonary functional tests (PFT). However, these explorations have their limitations. Thus, there is a need for new techniques for a very early diagnosis of PID-SSc. Thoracic ultrasound (TUS) is an innovative, easily accessible, non-irradiating, inexpensive and painless tool. It is an emerging technique for the diagnosis of PID and has already proven its sensitivity for the detection of interstitial damage, as defined by HRCT. The main objective of the PRECOSS study is to describe the prevalence of an ultrasound interstitial syndrome in patients with SSc, free of PID-SSc (defined by the Goh criteria) detectable by HRCT.

The Scleroderma Patient-centered Intervention Network (SPIN) Self-Management Program: Protocol for a Randomised Controlled Feasibility Trial With Progression to Full-Scale Trial
The Scleroderma Patient-centered Intervention Network (SPIN) is an organization established by researchers, health care providers, and people living with scleroderma (systemic sclerosis; SSc) from Canada, the United States, Mexico, Australia, France, Spain, and the United Kingdom. The objectives of SPIN are (1) to assemble a large cohort of SSc patients who complete outcome assessments regularly in order to learn more about important problems faced by people living with SSc and (2) to develop and test a series of internet-based interventions to help patients manage problems related to SSc, including a self-management program (SPIN-SELF Program). The SPIN-SELF Program was designed by SPIN members based on key tenets of behaviour change that have been successfully incorporated in programs for more common diseases and on patient input. It utilizes social modelling through educational videos of SSc patients describing their challenges and what they have done to cope with SSc, as well as videos teaching key self-management techniques. After an introduction to self-management and instructions on how to navigate the program, patients will have access to modules that are most relevant to their symptoms and disease management challenges. The program's modules address (1) pain; (2) skin care, finger ulcers, and Raynaud's; (3) sleep problems; (4) fatigue; (5) gastrointestinal symptoms; (6) itch; (7) emotions and stress; (8) body image concerns due to disfigurement; and (9) effective communication with healthcare providers. The proposed study is a feasibility trial with progression to full-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT), depending on whether stoppage criteria are met, of the SPIN Self-Management Program. The SPIN-SELF Program was previously feasibility tested as an online only, self-help intervention. However, uptake was low, thus the investigators have moved to a group-based format. SPIN-SELF participants randomized to intervention will access and use online self-management material, and this will be supported by videoconference group sessions, led by trained peer facilitators. In the SPIN-SELF feasibility trial with progression to full-scale trial, the investigators will evaluate the disease management self-efficacy of participants who use SPIN-SELF compared to usual care. Eligible SPIN Cohort participants and externally recruited participants, with low disease-management self-efficacy, will be randomized to the SPIN-SELF Program or to usual care only. In the feasibility portion, 40 eligible participants will be randomized. Unless the trial team determines, based on stoppage criteria, that trial procedures need important modifications thereby re-setting the full scale trial as a new trial, the outcome data of the participants in the feasibility portion will be utilized in the analyses of the full-scale trial. In the full-scale RCT, 524 participants will be randomized.

A Phase 1/2 Study of a Combination of FCX-013 (Genetically-Modified Autologous Human Dermal Fibroblasts) Plus Veledimex for the Treatment of Moderate to Severe Localized Scleroderma (Morphea)
A two-component therapeutic consisting of FCX-013 and veledimex for the treatment of localized scleroderma (or morphea). The first component, FCX-013, is autologous human fibroblasts genetically-modified using lentivirus and encoded for matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP-1), a protein responsible for breaking down collagen. FCX-013 is designed to be injected under the skin at the location of the fibrotic lesions where the genetically-modified fibroblast cells will produce MMP-1 to break down excess collagen accumulation. With the FCX-013 therapy, the patient will take an oral compound (Veledimex) to induce MMP-1 protein expression from the injected cells. Once the fibrosis is resolved, the patient will stop taking the oral compound which will stop further MMP-1 production from the injected cells. FCX-013 plus veledimex is being developed in anticipation of improving skin function in patients by resolving fibrotic lesions and normalizing dermal collagen production

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multi-center Study to Assess the Effect of Bosentan on Healing and Prevention of Ischemic Digital Ulcers in Patients With Systemic Sclerosis
In an earlier clinical trial, RAPIDS-1, conducted in scleroderma patients with or without digital ulcers at baseline, bosentan significantly reduced the number of new digital ulcers versus placebo. The purpose of the present trial (RAPIDS-2) is to evaluate the prevention and healing effects of bosentan versus placebo on digital ulcers over a 24-week treatment period.

Pilot Study for the Treatment of Steroid-Refractory Sclerodermatous Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease (GVHD) With GDC-0449 (GDC-0449)
This pilot clinical trial studies how well vismodegib works in treating patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease that did not respond to previous steroid treatment. Chronic graft-versus-host disease can cause a build-up of scar tissue under the skin and lead to symptoms such as sclerodermatous skin changes, dry mouth, dry eye, narrowing of the esophagus, or vaginal graft-versus-host disease. Vismodegib may work against the build-up of scar tissue and be a better treatment for chronic graft-versus-host disease caused by a hematopoietic stem cell transplant.
