    Systemic sclerosis (SSc), or scleroderma is a connective tissue disease of autoimmune origin. It is a life-threatening orphan disease with severe physical and psychosocial consequences. IVA337 has a novel mechanism of action and this study is designed to compare IVA337 at two dose levels with a placebo control treatment. Patients will be unaware of the treatment they are receiving and will be randomized to one of three treatment arms, twice daily intake of either IVA337 400mg, IVA600mg or placebo. They will receive drug for 48 weeks and during that time assessments will be made to monitor both the efficacy and safety of the treatment.
