In plain English
This study is looking at how safe and effective a medicine called tarperprumig is for adults with ANCA-associated vasculitis (a condition where the immune system attacks small blood vessels), including the GPA and MPA types. It is for people who are newly diagnosed or whose illness has come back, and whose doctors are considering treatment with rituximab or cyclophosphamide. The study is funded by Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Who can take part
- Adults newly diagnosed or with relapsing ANCA-associated vasculitis (GPA or MPA types), whose doctors are considering treatment with rituximab or cyclophosphamide
- A positive blood test for PR3-ANCA or MPO-ANCA antibodies, either now or in the past
- A certain level of disease activity, measured by a scoring tool called the BVAS (for example, at least one major item, three minor items, or two kidney items)
Who may not be able to
- People whose main illness is another disease, such as EGPA, lupus, IgA nephropathy or IgA vasculitis, rheumatoid vasculitis, Sjogren's syndrome, anti-GBM disease, cryoglobulinemic vasculitis, autoimmune haemolytic anaemia, or mixed connective tissue disease
- People with bleeding in the lungs who need invasive breathing support at screening
- People with other diseases or conditions that the study doctor believes would make taking part too risky
- People with a previous diagnosis of chronic kidney disease whose kidney function has been stable for more than 3 months and has fallen by less than 25% at screening
