Long‐Term Outcomes Among Participants in the WEGENT Trial of Remission‐Maintenance Therapy for Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis (Wegener's) or Microscopic Polyangiitis

Abstract

The results of this long-term analysis confirm that AZA and MTX are comparable treatment options for maintaining remission of GPA or MPA. Despite achieving good overall survival with these treatments, relapse rates, adverse events, and damage remain matters of concern and further studies are needed to reduce their frequency in these ANCA-associated vasculitides.
