Comparative efficacy of immunosuppressive therapies in the treatment of diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis
ACR Open Rheumatol 2025;7:e70004 DOI: 10.1002/acr2.70004.
White et al. report a post hoc analysis of the RESOLVE-1 trial comparing immunosuppressive therapies in diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc), finding numerically greater improvement in modified Rodnan skin score and stabilisation of lung function with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), particularly in patients with early-stage disease and anti–topoisomerase 1 antibodies. These findings strongly support MMF as a preferred background therapy in this population.
