Trial summary

Studying familial forms of systemic scleroderma offers several advantages: 1. To better understand the pathophysiology of a complex autoimmune disease based on "extreme" cases (familial forms); 2. To identify potential molecular markers predictive of disease progression; 3. Read more about this study

About this study

Studying familial forms of systemic scleroderma offers several advantages:

  1. To better understand the pathophysiology of a complex autoimmune disease based on "extreme" cases (familial forms);
  2. To identify potential molecular markers predictive of disease progression;
  3. To identify potential pathophysiological targets for developing new therapies, particularly relevant in severe and refractory forms of the disease.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Description of the clinical characteristics of patients with familial systemic scleroderma

    The clinical presentation describes how the disease manifests in patients:

    the symptoms, their severity, and their progression.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Systemic Scleroderma, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Aurélien GUFFROY, MD (33 3 69 5512 23, aurelien.guffroy@chru-strasbourg.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Description of the clinical characteristics of patients with familial systemic scleroderma (time frame: Up to 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Jan 2026.
