ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Subjects Achieving Disease Remission at Week 26Week 26
Disease remission at Week 26 was defined as: * Achieving a BVAS of 0 as determined by the Adjudication Committee; * No administration of glucocorticoids given for ANCA-associated vasculitis within 4 weeks prior to Week 26; * No BVAS \>0 during the 4 weeks prior to Week 26 (if collected for an unscheduled assessment).
PrimaryPercentage of Subjects Achieving Sustained Disease Remission at Week 52Week 52
Sustained remission at Week 52 was defined as: * Disease remission at Week 26 as defined above; * Disease remission at Week 52 defined as a BVAS of 0 at Week 52 as determined by the Adjudication Committee and no administration of glucocorticoids for treatment of ANCA-associated vasculitis within 4 weeks prior to Week 52; * No disease relapse between Week 26 and Week 52 as determined by the Adjudication Committee.

SecondaryGlucocorticoid-induced Toxicity as Measured by Change From Baseline Over the First 26 Weeks in the GTIBaseline, Week 13 and 26
GTI-CWS=Glucocorticoid Toxicity Index Cumulative Worsening Score; GTI-AIS=Glucocorticoid Toxicity Index Aggregate Improvement Score; The Glucocorticoid Toxicity Index (GTI) was developed to score glucocorticoid toxicity. The GTI includes: the Cumulative Worsening Score (CWS) that captures cumulative toxicity, both permanent and transient, over the course of time (serves as a cumulative record of toxicity); and the Aggregate Improvement Score that captures both improvement and worsening of toxicity over time (serves as a record of both improving and worsening toxicity). Both scores range from 0 (best health) to 100 (worst health).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With BVAS of 0 at Week 4, Regardless of Whether the Subjects Received Glucocorticoids During This Period of Time and Based on Assessment by the Blinded ACWeek 4
AC=Adjudication Committee; BVAS=Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score; The BVAS form is divided into 9 organ-based systems, with each section including symptoms/signs that are typical of that particular organ involvement in systemic vasculitis. The clinician only scores features believed to be due to active vasculitis. Completion of the form provides a numerical score, which ranges from 0 (best health) to 63 (worst health).
SecondaryChange From Baseline Over 52 Weeks in Health-related Quality of Life as Measured by the Domains and Component Scores of the SF-36v2 and EQ-5D-5L VAS and IndexBaseline, Week 26 and 52
SF-36v2: Measure of health- related quality of life (Medical Outcomes Survey Short Form-36 version 2) EQ-5D-5L: EuroQuality of Life-5 Domains-5 Levels The SF-36v2 component scores and the EQ-5D-5L VAS score range from 0 (worst health) to 100 (best health). The EQ-5D-5L Index Score ranges from 0 (worst health) to 1 (best health).
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects and Time to Experiencing a Relapse After Previously Achieving Remission at Week 26 in the StudyWeek 52
The median time to relapse was not estimable because of small number of relapsed subjects. A relapse was defined as occurrence of at least one major item in the BVAS, or three or more minor items in the BVAS, or one or two minor items in the BVAS recorded at two consecutive visits, after: 1. having achieved remission at Week 26 (BVAS=0 and no glucocorticoids for ANCA-associated vasculitis within 4 weeks) or 2. having achieved BVAS=0 at any time during the treatment period ANCA=anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody; BVAS=Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score; The BVAS form is divided into 9 organ-based systems, with each section including symptoms/signs that are typical of that particular organ involvement in systemic vasculitis. The clinician only scores features believed to be due to active vasculitis. Completion of the form provides a numerical score, which ranges from 0 (best health) to 63 (worst health).
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects and Time to Experiencing a Relapse After Previously Achieving BVAS=0 at Any Time During the Treatment PeriodWeek 52
The median time to relapse was not estimable because of small number of relapsed subjects. A relapse was defined as occurrence of at least one major item in the BVAS, or three or more minor items in the BVAS, or one or two minor items in the BVAS recorded at two consecutive visits, after: 1. having achieved remission at Week 26 (BVAS=0 and no glucocorticoids for ANCA-associated vasculitis within 4 weeks) or 2. having achieved BVAS=0 at any time during the treatment period The Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score (BVAS) form is divided into 9 organ-based systems, with each section including symptoms/signs that are typical of that particular organ involvement in systemic vasculitis. The clinician only scores features believed to be due to active vasculitis. Completion of the form provides a numerical score, which ranges from 0 (best health) to 63 (worst health).
SecondaryIn Subjects With Renal Disease at Baseline (Based in the BVAS Renal Component), the Change in eGFR From Baseline Over 52 WeeksBaseline, Week 26 and 52
Change from baseline in kidney function, as measured by eGFR (based on the MDRD equation), was measured in subjects with renal disease based on the BVAS renal component. eGFR=estimated glomerular filtration rate BVAS=Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score MDRD=Modification of Diet in Renal Disease
SecondaryIn Subjects With Renal Disease and Albuminuria at Baseline (Based in the BVAS Renal Component), the Percent Change in UACR From Baseline Over 52 WeeksBaseline, Week 4, 26 and 52BVAS=Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score UACR=Urinary albumin:creatinine ratio
