Trial Outcomes & Findings for Defining Immune Tolerance in ANCA-associated Vasculitis (AAV) (NCT NCT01934504)
NCT ID: NCT01934504
Last Updated: 2016-05-20
Results Overview
Identification of biomarkers associated with clinical tolerance in patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis by comparative immunophenotyping of individual leukocyte subsets from tolerant and non-tolerant patients with AAV. Due to early study termination, data was not available to evaluate this endpoint.

Participant Flow
Participants diagnosed with granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's, GPA) or microscopic polyangiitis, and a history positive for the presence of MPO-ANCA+ during disease flares were recruited for 3 cohorts; healthy participants were recruited for 1 cohort. Participants were recruited from 3 sites in Great Britain from Dec 2013 to Feb 2015.
Participant milestones
| Measure |
Tolerant AAV
Subjects in the Tolerant ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) cohort have been in clinical remission with Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score for Wegener's Granulomatosis (BVAS/WG) scores of zero and have been off all immunosuppression medications for at least 2 years prior to screening. Subjects have blood samples and other assessments collected for analysis at Week 0 and Week 26.
|
Non-Tolerant AAV
Subjects in the Non-Tolerant ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) cohort have had a disease exacerbation and re-institution of immunosuppressive therapy in the past 5 years. Subjects have also been in clinical remission with Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score for Wegener's Granulomatosis (BVAS/WG) scores of zero and on minimal maintenance therapy for at least 3 months prior to screening. Subjects have blood samples and other assessments collected for analysis at Week 0 and Week 26.
|
Healthy Controls
Healthy participants without autoimmune disease. Subjects have blood samples and other assessments collected for analysis at Week 0 and Week 26.
|
AAV Discontinuing Immunosuppression
Subjects in the ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) Discontinuing Immunosuppression group have been in clinical remission with Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score for Wegener's Granulomatosis BVAS/WG) scores of zero and on minimal maintenance therapy for at least 2 years prior to screening. The subjects' primary physicians have planned to discontinue immunosuppression medication in the next year after screening. Subjects have blood samples and other assessments collected for analysis at Week 0 and at 8 weeks after discontinuation of immunosuppression medication.
