Brief Summary: In vitro studies have shown that imatinib 1mM inhibits strongly the growth of cutaneous fibroblasts The hypothesis is that imatinib inhibits PDGFR which is known to be a potential target for the molecule as recently also proposed after the discovery of autoantibodies activating the PDGF receptors Recent data indicate that TGFb is also a potential target of imatinib Cutaneous scleroderma is characterized by progressive cutaneous fibrosis caused by hyperactive dermal fibroblasts Since no established treatment for skin sclerosis in scleroderma is currently available This study will test the safety and efficacy of imatinib in the treatment of patients with scleroderma and severe cutaneous involvement
Detailed Description: This study will test the efficacy and tolerance of patients with a high score of induration modified Rodnan score 2054 Comparison 34 patients with severe forms of cutaneous involvement will be evaluated in a double blind RCT comparing imatinib 400mgj and placebo in a 6 month period Efficacy will be assessed using a cutaneous induration scale and skin biopsy and quality of life questionnaires
