MPA AUC Monitoring in Patients Receiving MMF for Diffuse Cutaneous or Pulmonary Involvement in Systemic Sclerosis

MPA AUC Monitoring in Patients Receiving MMF for Diffuse Cutaneous or Pulmonary Involvement in Systemic Sclerosis

Phase N/A

In the treatment of autoimmune diseases, MMF is almost always prescribed at a fixed dose, regardless of AUC, or based on the target of AUC determined for organ transplantation. One study looked at determining an "effective" AUC threshold in systemic lupus erythematosus, which appears to be 35mg / h / l. This was also done for ANCA vasculitis.

We therefore conducted this study to determine a correlation between AUC MPA and the effectiveness of MMF in systemic sclerosis.

Prospective, observational, open study.

Main objective: define a target value of AUC MPA to improve the modified Rodnan score and / or respiratory impairment (DLCO or FVC) at one year in patients receiving MMF for the treatment of diffuse skin involvement or pulmonary function in systemic sclerosis.

The main endpoint will be evaluated on the evolution of the modified Rodnan score at 1 year after the initiation of MMF and / or the evolution of FVC and DLCO at 1 year after the initiation of MMF.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
