A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of CCX168 in Subjects With ANCA-Associated Vasculitis

Summary

The aim of this trial is to optimize the treatment to induce remission for patients with non-life-threatening anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody vasculitis (AAV). The intent is to reduce the toxicity of induction therapy by reducing the overall exposure to or eliminating entirely the use of systemic corticosteroids during the induction period with an inhibitor of the complement C5a receptor plus cyclophosphamide or rituximab.
