Scleroderma Clinical Trials
The Rheumatology Division of Medical Science in Puerto Rico is conducting clinical studies for scleroderma patients. It’s an effort thanks to our persistence in having such studies for scleroderma in the Puerto Rican population.

We need your help and ask you to join this clinical trial if you are a person with scleroderma. For information, call 787-758-2525, ext. 1825 or 1649. These clinics are to evaluate your condition and are seeking a cure for scleroderma. Let’s join and help this selected group of rheumatologists in Puerto Rico dedicated to helping this cause.

Get information about scleroderma from the Rheumatology Association's website in P.R.! Go to www.reumapr.org.
