rolipram and Scleroderma, Systemic

rolipram has been researched along with Scleroderma, Systemic in 1 studies

Scleroderma, Systemic: A chronic multi-system disorder of CONNECTIVE TISSUE. It is characterized by SCLEROSIS in the SKIN, the LUNGS, the HEART, the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT, the KIDNEYS, and the MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM. Other important features include diseased small BLOOD VESSELS and AUTOANTIBODIES. The disorder is named for its most prominent feature (hard skin), and classified into subsets by the extent of skin thickening: LIMITED SCLERODERMA and DIFFUSE SCLERODERMA.

Trial Overview

Trial Outcomes

An Additional Endpoint Analysis Would Assess the MMT-8 Score in Patients With Muscle Disease as Measured at 3 and 6 Months Compared to Baseline.

"MMT-8 (Manual Muscle Testing-8) score is a validated tool to assess muscle strength. Calculate the mean change in MMT-8 score at 3 and 6 month(s) compared to baseline in patients with muscle disease.~Units: Units on a scale. Scale goes from 0-150. 150 is perfect strength." (NCT03529955)
Timeframe: Data collected at 3 and 6 months after baseline visit

An Additional Secondary Endpoint Analysis Would Assess Quality of Life as Measured at 3 Months Compared to Quality of Life Measured at 6 Months

"Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) is a validated tool to measure quality of life in patients with skin disease. Complete response is defined by a DLQI of zero at 3, and 6 months. Partial response is defined by a decrease of DLQI of at least 5 points at 3, and 6 months compared to baseline. Calculation is performed as the DLQI at 3, and 6 months minus the score at baseline. Missing data will be handled using the last observation carried forward approach (LOCF).~Units : Units on a scale from 0-30, higher scores represent worse outcome." (NCT03529955)
Timeframe: Data collected at 3 and 6 months after baseline visit

An Additional Secondary Endpoint Analysis Would be Durability of Response Measured Participants CDASI Activity Score or Change in Their CDASI Activity Score at 6 Months Compared to 3 Months.

"The durability of response will be measured using the CDASI activity score at 6 months minus CDASI activity score at 3 months. Complete response durability is defined as zero or minus difference between CDASI activity score at 6 months and CDASI activity score at 3 months. Partial response durability is defined as >4 points difference between CDASI activity score at 6 months and CDASI activity score at 3 months. Missing data will be handled using the last observation carried forward approach (LOCF).~CDASI activity score: Units on a scale from 0-100. Higher scores represent worse outcome." (NCT03529955)
Timeframe: Data collected at 6 months compared to data collected at 3 months

The Primary Endpoint Analysis Would be Overall Response Rate Measured by the Number of Participants Experiencing at Least 4 Points Decrease in CDASI Activity Score at 3 Months.

"Cutaneous dermatomyositis disease area and severity index (CDASI) activity score is a validated tool to measure skin disease activity in dermatomyositis. The overall response rate (ORR) includes partial and complete responses. Complete response is defined by a CDASI activity score of zero. Partial response is defined by a decrease of CDASI activity score of at least 4 points. Calculation is performed as the CDASI activity score at 3 month(s) minus the score at baseline. Missing data will be handled using the last observation carried forward approach (LOCF).~CDASI activity score: Units on a scale from 0-100. Higher scores represent worse outcome." (NCT03529955)
Timeframe: Data collected at 3 months after baseline visit

2. The Secondary Endpoint Analysis Would be Safety as Measured by the Number of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events Occurring During 6 Months of Therapy and 1 Month Follow up.

"The proportion of participants experiencing adverse events and serious adverse events was measured over 7 months period (6 months during the study and 1 month follow up) using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0.~Grade refers to severity of the AE. The CTCAE displays Grades 1 to 5 with unique clinical descriptions of severity for each AE:~Grade 1 Mild; asymptomatic or mild symptoms; clinical or diagnostic observations only; intervention not indicated Grade 2 Moderate; minimal, local or noninvasive intervention indicated; limiting age- appropriate instrumental Activity of Daily Living (ADL) Grade 3 Severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self care ADL Grade 4 Life-threatening consequences; urgent intervention indicated Grade 5 Death related to AE All adverse events subjects experienced were grade 1 or 2 which is mild to moderate in severity." (NCT03529955)
Timeframe: 7 months

An Additional Endpoint is to Assess the Gene Expression Profiling and Immunohistochemistry Analysis Change on Skin Biopsies at 3 Months Compared to Baseline.

Skin biopsies from lesional skin will be performed before treatment with apremilast and after 3 months of treatment to assess changes in gene expression profiling and immunohistochemistry stain. Gene expression profiling will be analyzed using inferential statistics with a False Discovery Rate (FDR) of < 0.05. (NCT03529955)
Timeframe: Data collected at 3 months after baseline visit

An Additional Endpoint is to Assess the Immunohistochemistry Analysis Change on Skin Biopsies at 3 Months Compared to Baseline.

Skin biopsies from lesional skin will be performed before treatment with apremilast and after 3 months of treatment to assess changes in immunohistochemistry stain. (NCT03529955)
Timeframe: Data collected at 3 months after baseline visit
