Hyaluronidase for Sclerodactyly in Systemic Sclerosis Trial (NCT07697274)

Digital Intradermal Hyaluronidase for Sclerodactyly in Systemic Sclerosis

๐ŸŸก Not Yet Recruiting Early Phase1 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Medical University of South Carolina

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Translational studies have demonstrated reduced hyaluronidase activity in the skin of patients with systemic sclerosis. It is thought this may contribute to the progressive fibrosis seen in this disease. Several studies have demonstrated that exogenous hyaluronidase is very effective at improving systemic sclerosis associated microstomia. Therefore, this study aims to explore hyaluronidase for systemic sclerosis associated sclerodactyly.
