Primary Outcome(s)
Primary end point(s): To evaluate efficacy of SST in a subset of patients that are refractory/intolerant for corticosteroid therapy by a change in uptake on SRS. Change in uptake in SRS, defined as improved, no change, worse.
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Before start of study and at month 9.
Main Objective: To evaluate efficacy of SST looking at the change in uptake on SRS in a subset of chronically active patients in which intensification of corticosteroid therapy is not indicated.
Secondary Objective: To study the composite clinical score using the following parameters: blood test (ESR, CRP, full blood count, lysozyme, ACE, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, sIL-2R), quality of life (RAND-36) and when applicable lung function test (FVC, DLCO) and skin evaluation.
Secondary Outcome(s)
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Bloodtests, quality of life and skin assesment takes place before start of study and at 2 weeks and 3, 6, 9, 12 months. Lungfunction before trial and at 6 months.
Secondary end point(s): To study the composite clinical score using the following parameters. Measurements of ESR, CRP, full blood count, lysozyme, ACE, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 sIL-2R. Quality of life score assessment with RAND-36 will be conducted. When applicable lung-function test with FVC and DLCO and skin evaluation will take place.
