Real‐World Use of Avacopan in Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody–Associated Vasculitis: Early and Long‐Term Clinical, Renal, and Patient‐Reported Outcomes in an Italian Rheumatology–Nephrology Network

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
Objective Complement activation, particularly through the C5a–C5a receptor axis, plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody–associated vasculitis (AAV) and may represent an important therapeutic target. Avacopan, an oral C5a receptor antagonist, was the first therapy targeting this pathway to enter in clinical ...
