  1. Because ANCA specificity has been shown to be predictive of relapse, a patient’s AAV type can affect their life expectancy. Patients with autoantibodies against PR3 are more than twice as likely to relapse as those who have autoantibodies against the MPO protein.

  2. Sep 17, 2019 · During follow-up, 21 patients (25%) died; median time to death was 453 days (IQR 176–1090). Two-year and five-year survival in the whole cohort were 83% (95% CI 75, 92%) and 75% (95% CI 65, 86%), respectively (Fig. 1). Remission was achieved in 70 patients after a median of 125 days (IQR 92–179).

  3. Read more about AAV life expectancy. Effects of Treatment on Prognosis of GPA. The prognosis for patients with GPA has improved with the use of immunosuppressive therapy, but the overall survival and risk of relapse vary depending on the severity and extent of organ involvement.

  4. Jul 7, 2015 · Overall 1-year survival was 71.5% and 2-year survival was 64.6%. Older age, higher creatinine, and lower Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score were associated with higher mortality in multivariable analysis. Patients who were not treated with standard immunosuppressive therapy had significantly worse survival. Renal survival was 74.8% at 1 year.

  5. Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis comprises three syndromes, all with frequent respiratory manifestations. Studies indicate that ANCA specificity is more important for prognosis, relapse risk, response to therapy and outcomes than the specific diagnosis.

  6. Patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis treated with conventional regimens are at increased risk of death compared with an age- and sex-matched population.
