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
EXPERIMENTALPatients of this group will receive 2,4 mg of pl-vegf165 administered by intramuscular injection which is given in the hand
standard care
NO INTERVENTIONPatients 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.

You may not qualify if:
- presence of another systemic connective tissue disease;
- absence at least one active digital ulcer at baseline;
- smoking within 3 months or smoking cessation using nicotine products;
- subjects currently taking sildenafil, tadalafil or vardenafil;
- history of sympathectomy over previous 12 months
- not able or unwilling to give voluntary informed consent for the study or follow requirements of the clinical study;
