Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percentage of Subjects Achieving Clinical Response
Efficacy Endpoint: Percentage of subjects achieving clinical response (reduction in Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score version 3 \[BVASv3\] of ≥50% compared to baseline and no worsening in any body system). Subjects who received rescue therapy after Day 1 or discontinued due to related adverse event, lack of efficacy or progressive disease are considered as non-responders at all subsequent visits. The BVASv3 score ranges from 0 to 63 with higher values representing higher disease activity.

- Received an oral daily dose of a GC of \> 80 mg prednisone equivalent within 2 weeks before screening.
- Received a CD20 inhibitor, anti-tumor necrosis factor treatment, abatacept, alemtuzumab, any other experimental or biological therapy, intravenous immunoglobulin (Ig) or plasma exchange, antithymocyte globulin, or required renal dialysis within 12 weeks before screening.
