Clinical Practice Session
ANCA-Associated Vasculitis: Evidence and Uncertainties in Assessment and Management
October 24, 2024 | 04:30 PM - 06:00 PM
Location: Room 6A, Convention Center
Session Description
Assessment and management of ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) have improved in recent years. However, despite substantial evidence, not only do significant uncertainties exist, but more targeted and less toxic therapies are still needed. This session presents recent advances, outlines evidence and uncertainties, and examines unmet needs and future opportunities in AAV, focusing on the kidneys as a commonly affected end organ.
Support is provided by an educational grant from Travere Therapeutics, Inc.
Learning Objective(s)
- Discuss newer assessment tools for kidney risk in ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis
- Develop a rational approach to acute management of AAV, while appreciating the uncertainties that exist
