NCT02356809

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether pl-vegf165 (Neovasculgen) is effective in the treatment of digital ulcers related to secondary Raynaud's phenomenon associated with systemic scleroderma

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Frequency of new digital ulcers

    To determine the ability of pl-vegf165 to prevent development of new digital ulcers the frequency of new digital ulcers will be measured in both groups and then compared

    180 days

  • Frequency of adverse events

    180 days

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Time of complete healing of digital ulcers

    180 days

  • Pain scores on the visual analog scale

    180 days

Study Arms (2)

pl-vegf165

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients of this group will receive 2,4 mg of pl-vegf165 administered by intramuscular injection which is given in the hand

Drug: Neovasculgen

standard care

NO INTERVENTION

Patients of this group will receive standard therapy accepted in a clinical centre

Interventions

Neovasculgen is an original gene construction that contains supercoiled plasmid DNA (1.2 mg) that encodes pCMV-vegf165 as the active substance. The drug will be supplied to the study centre as a sterile lyophilisate that will be then dissolved in 2 ml of water for injections immediately prior to administration. The drug will be administered intramuscularly (interosseous muscles of hand) at 4-5 injection sites in the dorsal surface of the hand.
