About this study
The purpose of this study is to determine the 72-hour pharmacokinetics of emulsified avacopan at a dose of 30 mg twice daily given to up to 6 patients with active severe GPA or MPA with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) requiring mechanical ventilation for respiratory support.
Sponsor: Mayo Clinic
You may qualify if…
- ✓ Fulfillment of the definitions of the Second Chapel Hill Consensus Conference for ANCA-associated vasculitis (either granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) or microscopic polyangiitis MPA).
- ✓ Positivity for ANCA, directed against PR3 or MPO.
- ✓ Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage.
- ✓ Respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation.
- ✓ Severe newly diagnosed disease or severe relapsing disease. Severe new or relapsing disease is defined as at least one major BVAS/WG item or a score ≥ 3 and the investigator deems standard treatment for severe disease is necessary.
- ✓ Minimum BVAS-WG of 3.
- ✓ Requirement of standard-of-care remission induction therapy for active severe ANCA-associated vasculitis (GPA or MPA).
You may not qualify if…
- ✕ Diagnosis with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA, formally Churg-Strauss syndrome) as defined by the Chapel Hill consensus conference.
- ✕ Allergies: History of severe allergic reaction to avacopan
- ✕ History of documented anti-glomerular basement membrane disease (anti-GBM disease)
- ✕ Previous administration of avacopan within the last 5 days.
- ✕ Concomitant use of a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor.
- ✕ Aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\], alanine amino transferase \[ALT\], alkaline phosphatase, or total bilirubin elevation \>2.5 times the upper limit of normal (unless attributed to vasculitis) on routine liver function testing obtained within 3 days prior to anticipated treatment with avacopan.
- ✕ Evidence of prior active or current Hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), or human immunodeficiency (HIV) infection.
- ✕ Active serious infection, including localized infection.
