Brief Summary: A double-blinded placebo-controlled study of Dimethyl fumarate DMF in 34 Systemic Sclerosis-Pulmonary Hypertension SSc-PAH patients The study will determine safety and the primary outcome variability for DMF in treating SSc-PAH the primary outcome of clinical efficacy in this pilot trial will be improvement in 6-minute walk distance 6MWD
Detailed Description: A double-blinded placebo-controlled study of Dimethyl fumarate DMF in 34 Systemic Sclerosis-Pulmonary Hypertension SSc-PAH patients The study medication will be added to stable background PAH medications Subjects will be dosed for 24 weeks will undergo examination every 8 weeks and will be finally evaluated 12 weeks after completion of treatment Dosage will begin at once daily oral doses of 120mg for the first 7 days and follow the up-titration schedule to a maintenance dose of 240mg twice a day or highest tolerated dose of a minimum of 120mg twice a day by the start of Week 8 for the remainder of the study Participation will be for a total of 40 weeks including a 4-week screening period 24 weeks of drug and a safety follow-up 12 weeks after the last dose The study will determine the safety and the primary outcome variability for DMF in treating SSc-PAH the primary outcome of clinical efficacy in this pilot trial will be improvement in 6-minute walk distance 6MWD
