Change in the UCLA Scleroderma Clinical Trials Consortium Gastrointestinal 2.0 (UCLA SCTC GIT 2.0) Questionnaire Score Primary · Baseline, 7 months

The UCLA SCTC GIT 2.0 is a self-administered survey consisting of 34 questions (Reflux 1 to 8, Distention/Bloating 9 to 12, Fecal Soilage 13, Diarrhea 14 to 15, Social functioning 16 to 21, Emotional well-being 22 to 30, Constipation 31 to 34). The items are scored on a scale from 0 to 3, where 0 indicates better health and 3 indicates worse health, except for questions 15 and 31, which are scored as 0 (better health) and 1 (worse health). Scores from all scales except the constipation scale are averaged to form a total GIT score from 0 (no gastrointestinal problems) to 3 (most severe) that ca

Change From Baseline in Modified Rodnan Skin Score (MRSS) Secondary · Baseline, 24 weeks

MRSS is a validated clinical semiquantitative assessment of scleroderma skin thickness at 17 prespecified sites on the body, with thickness at each site scored from 0 (uninvolved) to 3 (severe thickening) that are tabulated for a total numerical skin score ranging 0-51. Lower scores indicate less involvement, and higher scores indicate more severe thickening.

Change in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) % Predicted. Secondary · Baseline, 7 months

FVC is the maximum amount of air a person can forcefully exhale from their lungs after taking a deep breath.

Change in Patient Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PtGA) Secondary · Baseline, 24 weeks

Patient-reported outcome that represents the participant's assessment of his or her current overall health (Question: How was your overall health in the last week?) rated on an 11-point numeric scale anchored at 0 (excellent) to 10 (extremely poor) with higher scores indicating worse disease in terms of severity and damage.
