Background: Patient reported outcome measures (PROM) are important for clinical practice and research. Given the unmet need for a comprehensive PROM for systemic sclerosis (SSc), the ScleroID questionnaire was developed by a joint team of patients with SSc and medical experts. This is intended as a brief, specific, patient-derived, disease impact score for research and clinical use in SSc. Objectives: Here, we present the validation and final version of the ScleroID. Methods: This EULAR-endorsed project involves 9 European expert SSc centers. Patients fulfilling the ACR/EULAR 2013 criteria were prospectively included since 05/16 in a large observational cohort study. Patients completed the ScleroID and comparators SHAQ, EQ5D, SF36. They also weighted the 10 dimensions of the ScleroID by distributing 100 points according to the perceived impact on their health. The final score calculation is based on the ranking of the weights. The validation study included a reliability arm and a longitudinal arm, looking at sensitivity to change at follow-up. Results: Of the 472 patients included at baseline, 109 patients also had a reliability visit and 113 patients a follow-up visit. 84.5% of patients were female, 29.8% had diffuse SSc, mean age was 54.6 years, and mean disease duration 9.5 years. The highest weights were assigned by the patients to Raynaud`s phenomenon, fatigue, hand function and pain, confirming our previous results. The total ScleroID score showed good Spearman correlation coefficients with the comparators (SHAQ, 0.73; EQ5D -0.48; Patient’s global assessment, VAS 0.77; HAQ-DI 0.62; SF36 physical score -0.62; each p Conclusion: The EULAR ScleroID is a novel PROM designed for use in clinical practice and clinical trials to reflect the disease impact of SSc, showing good performance in the validation study. Importantly, Raynaud syndrome, impaired hand function, pain and fatigue were the main patient reported drivers of disease impact. Disclosure of Interests: Mike O.
