To decipher the optimal management of systemic sclerosis (DESSCIPHER)
Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
The current approach to diagnosis and management of the rare disease systemic sclerosis (SSc) is based on American College of Rheumatology criteria with low sensitivity and few validated recommendations for the therapy of the disease and its manifold organ manifestations. To overcome these shortcomings, the DeSScipher project will use the multinational, prospective and open EUSTAR (Scleroderma Tri ...
