Raynaud's Disease Clinical Trials

A single center double-blinded, placebo-controlled, crossover study to assess efficacy of oral treprostinil titrated to a tolerable goal dose of 2.0 mg three times per day (TID) in 20 patients with symptomatic primary or secondary Raynaud's Phenomenon resistant to vasodilatory therapy. Based on a pre-screening survey of the clinic population ...

Systemic sclerosis is a disease with a high burden caused by morbidity and increased mortality. To date a cure for SSc is not available. In this trial, patients are treated very early in the disease which could change the long term outcome of SSc in these patients. In daily practice, ...

Raynaud's phenomenon is a disorder characterized by spasm of digital arteries leading to blanching, coldness and discomfort of the affected digit, affecting up to 3-5% of the population at some time in their lives. Raynaud's is roughly classified into primary and secondary forms. The primary form may occur without apparent ...

Currently investigators do not have diagnostic and prognostic markers for SSc which almost always starts with a vascular disease (Raynaud's disease) isolated for several years. The primary purpose is to highlight discriminating metabolic profiles depending on the characteristics of the disease, allowing early diagnosis of SSc at the onset of ...

Raynaud's phenomenon (RP) is a common vascular disorder that that affects approximately 10% of the general population. RP causes some areas of the body (i.e. fingers and toes) to feel cold and numb in response to cold exposure or emotional stress. Raynaud's phenomenon is characterized by reversible vasospasm of the ...

This prospective double-blind randomized control trial seeks to compare a single formulation of BoNT, aboboutlinum toxin A (Dysport), to a placebo saline group, studying the effect of BoNT on Raynaud's symptoms among a more diverse population to provide insight into the patients most likely to benefit from BoNT.

This case control study aims to determine whether spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is associated with autoimmune diseases and to update the incidence of SCAD in a population-based cohort.

Background: Raynaud's phenomenon is a vasospasm of the extremities, leading to extensive discomfort in daily life and potentially severe ischemia. Some patients are resistant to conventional vasodilatory drug treatment. In the University Medical Center Groningen, single-port thoracoscopic sympathicotomy (SPTS) was developed. This is a new minimally invasive endoscopic technique, extensively ...
