OBJECTIVE: Patients with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc) frequently show spontaneous improvement of skin fibrosis. Our aim was to examine whether an improvement in skin fibrosis predicts lower likelihood of visceral organ progression and better survival.
METHODS: Patients from the European Scleroderma Trials and Research (EUSTAR) cohort with dcSSc, baseline modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS) ≥7, and valid mRSS at 12±3 months follow up were included. Regression/progression of skin fibrosis was defined as a decrease/increase in mRSS >5 points and ≥25% from baseline to follow up. The outcomes included progression of lung, renal, cardiac and gastrointestinal manifestations using consensus derived definitions and all-cause death. Regressive, stable and progressive patients were compared by univariate, Kaplan-Meier survival curve and Cox regression analysis.
RESULTS: Of 1257 included patients, 883 (70.2%) were stable, 282 (22.4%) regressive, and 92 (7.3%) progressive. Regressive patients, adjusted for baseline mRSS, baseline immunosuppression, baseline FVC, and disease duration, showed a significantly lower probability of FVC decline ≥10% than progressive patients (p=0.00003), lower probability of all-cause mortality during follow up (p=0.035) compared to progressive patients. .Improvement of skin fibrosis was not associated with progression of other organ manifestations.
CONCLUSION: We found that regression of skin fibrosis is associated with a lower probability of lung progression and better survival at follow up. The link between the disease course of skin and lung fibrosis in SSc can help to better stratify patients in clinical practice and enrich for ILD progressive patients in clinical trials.
