Documented evidence of pulmonary or renal involvement by having at least one of the following: a) Pulmonary, both required: i. FVC \> 45% and \< 80% predicted or hemoglobin-adjusted DLco \> 45% and \< 80% predicted AND ii. Interstitial lung disease evidenced by chest high-resolution computed tomography b) Renal: history of renal crisis that is not active at time of screening.

Corticosteroid therapy at prednisone equivalent doses of greater than 10 mg/day, or more than two pulses for concurrent illnesses within prior 12 months 8. Uncontrolled hypertension 9. Active gastric antral vascular ectasia, also known as "watermelon stomach" 10. Use of scleroderma specific therapies beyond protocol specified washout period, except for PDE-5 inhibitors for Raynaud's phenomenon and digital ulcers 11.
