Myeloperoxidase Activity in Individuals with Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies (ANCA) Can Be Inhibited by RLS-0071
Background/Purpose: Anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies (ANCA) are immunoglobulin G (IgG) autoantibodies directed against constituents of primary neutrophil granules (Davies, Moran et al. 1982). There is strong…Abstract Number: 0419 • ACR Convergence 2021
Post-induction ANCA Titer Does Not Predict Mortality or Renal Outcomes: A Target Trial Emulation Study
Background/Purpose: Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is associated with increased risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and death. In most cases, circulating ANCA targeting…Abstract Number: 0436 • ACR Convergence 2021
Ocular and Orbital Manifestations of Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis: A Systematic Review of Published Cases
Background/Purpose: Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), formerly known as Wegener’s Granulomatosis, is a systemic autoimmune condition caused by granulomatous inflammation of small and medium arteries, arterioles…Abstract Number: 0420 • ACR Convergence 2021
Development and Validation of a Simulation Model for Maintenance Treatment in ANCA-Associated Vasculitis
Background/Purpose: ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) care has evolved over the last two decades with several approaches to remission maintenance. However, these approaches have trade-offs regarding the…Abstract Number: 0437 • ACR Convergence 2021
Factors Associated with Reduced Immunogenicity of the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 Vaccine in Patients with Autoimmune Inflammatory Rheumatic Diseases (AIIRD) Treated with Rituximab
Background/Purpose: Rituximab (RTX) has been associated with impaired humoral response to vaccination. This study aim was to identify the predictors for a lack of humoral…Abstract Number: 0421 • ACR Convergence 2021
Negative vs. Positive Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis, a Case-control Study
Background/Purpose: Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) negative granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a challenging diagnosis. There is paucity of literature regarding the clinical course of ANCA-negative…Abstract Number: 0525 • ACR Convergence 2021
STEAP3, FZD2 and EGFLAM Are Novel Genetic Risk Loci for Granulomatosis with Polyangitis: A Genome Wide Association Study from UK Biobank
Background/Purpose: Granulomatosis with Polyangitis (GPA) is a systemic ANCA associated small vessel vasculitis. Prior genetic studies demonstrated a strong association of HLA Class II region…Abstract Number: 0422 • ACR Convergence 2021
Cancer in Patients with ANCA-associated Vasculitis: Which Came First, the Chicken or the Egg?
Background/Purpose: Many studies linking vasculitis to the development of malignancy based on chronic inflammation, cytotoxicity, emergence of vasculitis as a paraneoplastic disease. Even previous studies…Abstract Number: 0533 • ACR Convergence 2021
Identification of a Novel Susceptibility Locus for Small Vessel Vasculitis with Autoantibodies Against Myeloperoxidase
Background/Purpose: ANCA-associated vasculitides (AAV) are rare but aggressive autoimmune disorders. The pathogenesis of the disorders is complex and still poorly understood; only a few genetic…
