Interstitial lung disease causes major morbidity and mortality in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc-ILD). Large randomized clinical trials in SSc-ILD have provided important information regarding the feasibility, reliability and validity of outcome measures. Forced vital capacity percentage predicted should be considered as a primary outcome measure, with inclusion of appropriate radiological and patient-reported measures. We provide practical recommendations for trial design in SSc-ILD.
间质性肺病在系统性硬化症(SSc-ILD)患者中导致了严重的发病和死亡。针对SSc-ILD的大型随机临床试验提供了有关结局指标的可行性、可靠性和有效性的重要信息。预计的用力肺活量百分比应被视为主要结局指标,并纳入适当的影像学和患者报告指标。我们为SSc-ILD的试验设计提供实用建议。
