Chest CT scans to predict lung disease in scleroderma
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at using chest CT scans to help predict how lung disease from scleroderma (SSc-ILD) may progress. It may help doctors better understand your condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have been diagnosed with systemic sclerosis (scleroderma).
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must have had a high-resolution CT scan of your chest taken between January 1, 1990 and December 31, 2019.

This study looks at patterns seen on a high-resolution CT (HRCT) scan to better understand lung disease that can occur with systemic sclerosis. It may help doctors recognize which lung changes go with which type of disease.
This study follows people with systemic sclerosis who also have lung scarring (interstitial lung disease). It aims to map how lung function and lung images change over time, which may help doctors predict and better manage disease progression.
This study tests whether a combination of two drugs, nintedanib and tocilizumab, can help people with systemic sclerosis (a condition that causes skin and organ hardening) who also have lung scarring (interstitial lung disease). The goal is to find a treatment that can slow down the disease.
This study looks at people aged 18 and older who have a connective tissue disease and lung involvement. It aims to better understand how these lung problems progress and may help doctors choose better care.
This study checks if a computer program can reliably measure the amount of lung scarring on chest CT scans. It's for people with certain types of interstitial lung disease who are already scheduled for a routine CT scan.
This trial looks at different types of lung scarring (called interstitial lung disease) to better understand the condition across all ages. It also includes family members of people with certain genetic mutations that affect the lungs.
