Abstrakt: Purpose of Review: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the leading cause of death in patients with systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD). The American College of Rheumatology (ACR), in conjunction with the American College of Chest Physicians (CHEST), recently published clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of adults with systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease-associated ILD, including SSc-ILD. Herein, we summarize evidence from randomized trials evaluating the safety and efficacy of pharmacologic therapies for the treatment of SSc-ILD.
Recent Findings: In this review, we present findings from recent randomized controlled trials in SSc-ILD. The pharmacologic therapies discussed include immunosuppressive medications (mycophenolate, cyclophosphamide, rituximab, and tocilizumab) and antifibrotic medications (nintedanib and pirfenidone).
Summary: Randomized trials provide an evidence base for the SSc-ILD treatment recommendations put forth in the ACR/CHEST Guidelines for the treatment of ILD in people with systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases. These guidelines will help inform clinical practice and highlight areas in which further research is needed.
