Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main study parameters include a) levels of: Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) TGF-beta responsive gene signature N-terminal pro-peptide of type I (PINP) and type III (PIIINP) collagen C-terminal pro-peptide of type I collagen cross-linked carboxyterminal telopeptide of type I collagen C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) soluble vascular adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM-1) E-selectin NT-proBNP Uric acid b) Presence (+ or -) of SSc specific autoantibody subtypes Scl-70, CENP A, CENP B, RP11, RP155, Fibrillarin, NOR90, Th/To, PM-Scl100, PM-Scl75, Ku, PDGFR, Ro-52 inflammatory parameters and interleukins c) EUSTAR SSc Activity Score The main endpoint is the correlation between the activity score (c) and presence and levels of markers as summarized under a and b.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary endpoints relate to potential clinical significance of biomarkers in evaluating therapeutic efficacy. During follow-up and upon treatment levels and presence of markers will be evaluated and correlated with disease activity. In this way markers of treatment efficacy may be revealed.
