Tips for Diagnosing, Treating Seldom Seen Forms of Vasculitis

Thomas R. Collins  |  February 15, 2017

WASHINGTON, D.C.—The vast majority of the attention given to vasculitis at the ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting, year after year, focuses on ANCA-associated vasculitis and large-vessel vasculitis, said Philip Seo, MD, MHS, director of the Johns Hopkins Vasculitis Center and moderator of the 2016 ACR Review Course titled, Neglected Vasculitis. That leaves out a lot. “These are…

Malignancy Risk in ANCA-Associated Vasculitis Is Lower with Rituximab

Marilynn Larkin  |  December 8, 2016

NEW YORK (Reuters Health)—Compared with cyclophosphamide, rituximab treatment poses less malignancy risk in patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV), European researchers report. Dr. Emma E. van Daalen of Leiden University Medical Center in the Netherlands tells Reuters Health, “Previous studies reported an increased malignancy risk in patients with AAV, which has been associated…

Thomas R. Collins  |  October 10, 2016

LONDON—New therapies are emerging for the two main forms of large-vessel vasculitis, giant cell arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu’s arteritis—particularly biologic therapies. But for just about every available treatment gap, drawbacks or limited evidence remain, with the results needing to be borne out in larger trials, an expert said at the Annual Congress of the European…

Diagnostic Criteria, Classification Lacking for Vasculitis; New Research in Treatment for Systemic Sclerosis

Thomas R. Collins  |  September 12, 2016

LONDON—Despite the detailed terminology for describing vasculitis established by the Chapel Hill Consensus (CHC) in 2012, the field badly needs better classification and diagnostic criteria for the group of diseases, an expert said in a presentation at the Annual Congress of the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR 2016). It’s a topic that is now being…
