Summary

Autologous stem cell therapy has been shown to be effective in patients with systemic sclerosis. Nevertheless treatment is associated with treatment related mortality and patients die during follow up despite successful transplantation.

Intention of this trial is to improve overall survival by modifying the existing protocol used for the ASTIS trial.

To reduce treatment toxicity we reduce the dose of Cyclophosphamide (CYC) for mobilisation to 2x1g.

Especially in patients with cardiac manifestations we also modify the conditioning regimen by adding thiotepa and reducing CYC; as CYC has known cardiotoxic side effects.

Conditions

  • Scleroderma
  • Cardiac Involvement
  • Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation

Interventions

DRUG

Autologous stemcell transplantation with CD (cluster of differentiation) 34 selected stem cells

If no active alveolitis: mobilisation with 2x1g Cyclophosphamide If active alveolitis: mobilisation with 2x1.5g Cyclophosphamid If cardiac manifestation: Conditioning with CYC 2 x 50mg + thiotepa 2x5mg + ATG If no cardiac manifestation: Conditioning with 4 x 50mg CYC + ATG
