Korábbi kezelés

• Participant is currently on immunosuppressive therapy, systemic glucocorticoids or other antifibrotic agents detailed as follows:
  • Immunosuppresive agents: Cyclophosphamide (IV or oral if used in the 6 months prior to Screening), calcineurin inhibitors (if used in the 30 days prior to Screening), azathioprine (if used in the 30 days prior to Screening), Janus-kinase inhibitors (if used in the 30 days prior to Screening), rituximab (if used in the 6 months prior to Screening), tocilizumab (if used in the 60 days prior to Screening) or any other biologic Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs (DMARD, if used in the last 30 days or 3 half-lives prior to Screening, whichever is longer)
  • Antifibrotic agents: nintedanib or pirfenidone (if used in the 30 days prior to Screening). Also, exclusionary if used within 3 months of Screening are tyrosine-kinase inhibitors with recognized anti-fibrotic activity (imatinib, nilotinib, etc.)
  • Systemic glucocorticoids: equivalent doses of prednisone greater than 10 mg/day (≤10 mg/day allowed). Has received any pulse intramuscular (IM) or intravenous (IV) steroid within 1 month of Screening
  • Other agents:
  • mycophenolate mofetil unless on a stable dose for at least 6 months prior to Screening and there are no plans to adjust the dose during the study; ii. mycophenolic acid unless on a stable dose for at least 6 months prior to Screening and there are no plans to adjust the dose during the study; iii. hydroxychloroquine unless on a stable dose for at least 3 months prior to Screening and there are no plans to adjust the dose during the study; and iv. methotrexate unless on a stable dose for at least 3 months prior to Screening and there are no plans to adjust the dose during the study.
• Previous or planned hematopoietic stem cell or solid organ transplantation
• Previous treatment with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T/CAR-NK therapy
• Clinically significant PAH as determined by the Investigator at, or prior to first day of dosing (Baseline)
• History of clinically significant thrombotic event within 12 months prior to Screening
• Positive anticentromere antibody
• Systemic sclerosis renal crisis within 12 months prior to Screening
• Major surgery within 8 weeks prior to Screening or planned surgery during study period
• Currently receiving another experimental agent or participating in another clinical trial. If a participant has recently received another experimental agent, then the last dose must have been at least 5 half-lives or 30 days (whichever is longer) prior to Screening

Más betegség

• Concomitantly have another serious medical illness, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would interfere with the participant's ability to complete the study
• History of myocardial infarction, angina or congestive heart failure
• Active infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B, or hepatitis C
• Confirmed diagnosis of overlap syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus with anti-double strand (ds)DNA antibody, rheumatoid arthritis with anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibody, or systemic sclerosis mimics (eosinophilic fasciitis, scleromyxedema) at the time of inclusion in the study
• Known malignancy or history of malignancy within 5 years of Screening other than non-melanoma skin cancer and in situ cervical cancer
• History of myocardial infarction, angina or congestive heart failure

  • >5 and ≤10 years from their first non-Raynaud's symptom, their mRSS is between >15 and ≤25, they are negative for the RNA polymerase 3 autoantibody, and (1) they have never had any previous spontaneous improvement in skin thickening of ≥4 points by mRSS, or (2) were never clinically noted to have a meaningful spontaneous reduction in skin thickness if mRSS was never done.
