This research is being done to determine how variations in genes may explain the different risk to develop scleroderma (or CREST) seen in African American patients compared to other populations. People who are African American with scleroderma (or CREST) may join. This research involves a blood draw and physical exams.
The purpose of this study is to develop a cohort of patients with early scleroderma and to collect data on clinical outcomes, radiological tests, laboratory tests, and to obtain biological specimens for testing.
