Limitations and caveats
The analysis of outcome measures at Week 104 wasn't conducted as the study was terminated due to the difficulties experienced in identifying participants who meet the eligibility criteria of the trial.

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Absolute Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) at Week 52Baseline, Week 52FVC was the maximum amount of air exhaled from the lungs after taking the deepest breath possible. The FVC assessments were done using spirometry. Change from baseline in fvc at week 52 was reported.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Dyspnea as Measured by the Mahler's Transition Dyspnea Index (TDI) at Week 52Baseline, Week 52
Mahler's TDI was an interview-administered instrument that allows participants to assess their level of dyspnea which was assessed by functional impairment, magnitude of task and magnitude of effort. Scores for each subscale range from -3 to +3 so that the TDI focal score ranges from -9 (major deterioration) to +9 (major improvement). For all subscale scores and the TDI focal score a higher value indicates a better outcome.
SecondaryAbsolute Change From Baseline in St. George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) Total Score at Week 52Baseline, Week 52
The SGRQ assesses health-related quality of life in participants with chronic pulmonary disease by evaluating 3 health domains: symptoms (distress caused by respiratory symptoms); activity (effects of disturbances on mobility and physical activity); and impacts (the effect of disease on factors such as employment, personal control of one's health, and need for medication). A composite total score is derived as the weighted sum of domain scores for symptoms, activity, and impact (0=the best possible score and 100=the worst possible score). A reduction in score of 4 units is generally recognized as a clinically meaningful improvement in quality of life.
SecondaryAbsolute Change From Baseline in Modified Rodnan Skin Score (mRSS) at Week 52 in Participants With Diffuse Cutaneous Skin Involvement at BaselineBaseline, Week 52
The Modified Rodnan Skin Score (mRSS) measures dermal skin thickness through the examination of 17 body areas: fingers, hands, forearms, arms, feet, legs, and thighs (in pairs), and face, chest, and abdomen. The skin score is evaluated by manual palpation in each of these areas. The skin score is 0 for uninvolved skin, 1 for mild thickening, 2 for moderate thickening, and 3 for severe thickening (hidebound skin). The total skin score is the sum of the skin scores of the individual areas where the minimum score is 0 and the maximum score is 51. A higher score indicates greater severity of disease.
SecondaryAbsolute Change From Baseline in Quantitative Lung Fibrosis (QLF) in the Region of Highest Baseline Severity at Week 52Baseline, Week 52
Absolute change from baseline in QLF score at week 52 was calculated as the difference of the QLF score at week 52 minus the QLF score at baseline divided in the region of highest baseline severity at Week 52 .The QLF score itself ranges from 0 to 100, where greater values represent a greater amount of lung fibrosis and are considered a worse health status.
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS)Time from date of randomization until death, assessed up to 2 yearsOverall survival (OS) was defined as the time (in months) from randomization to death. Data has been presented in terms of number participants who died and number of censored participants.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Progression of Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) by Meeting Criterion 1 (Interstitial Lung Disease [ILD])upto Week 52
Clinically Meaningful Progression SSc-ILD was defined as one of the following (in the absence of causative intercurrent illness) on at least 2 occasions within approximately 4 weeks (per Outcome Measures in Rheumatology criteria): Relative decrease from baseline in forced vital capacity (FVC) % predicted greater than or equal to (\>=)10%; Relative decrease from baseline in FVC % predicted of \>=5% to less than (\<) 10% and relative decrease from baseline in Diffusion capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide % predicted \>=15%.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Progression of Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) by Meeting Criterion 2 (SSc Progression Other Than ILD)upto Week 52
Clinically Meaningful Progression SSc other than ILD was defined as new onset of one or more of the following: Scleroderma renal crisis; Left ventricular failure (defined as ejection fraction \<=45%); Pulmonary arterial hypertension requiring treatment.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Progressionupto Week 52
Participants meeting one or both of the below criteria was considered as having clinically meaningful disease progression. Clinically Meaningful SSc-ILD defined as one of the following (in the absence of causative intercurrent illness) on at least 2 occasions within approximately 4 weeks (per Outcome Measures in Rheumatology criteria): Relative decrease from baseline in forced vital capacity (FVC) % predicted greater than or equal to (\>=)10%; Relative decrease from baseline in FVC % predicted of \>=5% to less than (\<) 10% and relative decrease from baseline in Diffusion capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide % predicted \>=15%. Clinically Meaningful SSc progression other than ILD defined as new onset of one or more of the following: Scleroderma renal crisis; Left ventricular failure (defined as ejection fraction \<=45%); Pulmonary arterial hypertension requiring treatment.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Absolute Decrease From Baseline of FVC Percentage (%) Predicted Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 10% on 2 or More Consecutive Occasions at Least 4 Weeks Apartupto Week 52FVC is the maximum amount of air exhaled from the lungs after taking the deepest breath possible. The FVC assessments were done using spirometry.
