Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate, after a run-in period of 6 months, the efficacy of a 6- month treatment of 10% STS solution when locally injected for the treatment of calcifications (secondary to dermatomyositis or systemic sclerosis) and ectopic ossifications (secondary to iPPSD2);Primary end point(s): Percentage of volume evolution of the treated calcifications / ossifications between the beginning (M6) and the end (M12) of STS treatment, in each of the three diseases (dermatomyositis, systemic sclerosis and iPPSD2), evaluated on CT-scan measurements.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: month 12; Secondary Objective: To evaluate in each disease (dermatomyositis, systemic sclerosis and iPPSD2): 1) the evolution of ectopic calcification/ossification volume between (i) time of inclusion, (ii) the end of the run-in period (i.e. 6 months after inclusion) and (iii) after 6 months of local injections of STS) 2) the safety of local injections of STS during 6 months of treatment 3) the evolution of the ectopic calcification/ossification density in between (i) time of inclusion, (ii) the end of the run-in period (6 months after inclusion) and (iii) after 6 months of local injections of STS 4) the percentage of clinically pertinent variation of pain after the 6 month run-in period and after the 6 months of local injections of STS 5) the percentage of clinically pertinent variation of quality of life after the 6-month run-in period and after the 6 months of local injections of STS

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Month 6 Month 12 ; Secondary end point(s): 1) Volume of the treated calcifications / ossifications at (i) inclusion (M0), the end of the run-in period (M6) and after 6 months of local injections of STS (M12) in each disease, evaluated on CT-scan measurements. 2) (i) Adverse events (clinical and biological): causality, severity, and seriousness (outcome, drug discontinuation or drug reduction due to AE) during the 6 months of STS treatment.(ii) Trabecular bone density calculated through measurements of Hounsfield units level within the bone facing the treated area on M0, M6 and M12 CT evaluations. (iii) pain associated with STS infusion or injections. 3) Hounsfield density of the treated ectopic calcifications/ossifications at (i) inclusion (M0), the end of the run-in period (M6) and after 6 months of local injections of STS (M12), evaluated on CT-scan measurements. 4) Percentage of clinically pertinent variation in pain evaluated with pain scales: difference in HEDEN = 2 (2-7 years old), difference in VAS score = 2 (> 7 years old) between M0-M6 and M6-M12. 5) Percentage of clinically pertinent variation in quality of life evaluated with quality of life scales: difference in PedsQL Scale = 5 (2 years old -18 years old, using appropriates reports), difference in SF36 score = 20 (> 18 years old) between M0-M6 and M6-M12.
