Abstract

Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare chronic autoimmune condition with characteristic skin manifestations and progressive proximal muscle weakness. Although treatments such as glucocorticoids and other immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory therapies including immunoglobulins are used, evidence supporting their efficacy in DM is limited. The ProDERM study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety/tolerability of intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG - Octagam 10%) in patients with DM in a prospective, parallel group, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, international multicenter, phase III study.
