Core Tip |
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitides with renal involvement, presents as Rapidly Progressive Glomerulonephritis, are organ-threatening and potentially life-threatening diseases. Although remission induction immunosuppressive regimens overall have been very successful in the treatment of these conditions, many questions remain unanswered. The still open challenges and questions concern: (1) The choice of the first-line therapy (cyclophosphamide versus rituximab) based on renal function at baseline, new versus relapsed disease, ANCA specificity, tissue injury and safety; (2) the role of plasma exchange in combination with steroid and non steroid agents and (3) the advent of novel target therapies and strategies. |
