Treatment With Avacopan in Patients With Respiratory Tract Manifestations of Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Vasculitis.
Article in ACR open rheumatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThe ADVOCATE trial demonstrated that treatment of active granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) with avacopan was noninferior in achieving remission at week 26 and superior for sustained remission at week 52 compared with a prednisone taper. This analysis of ADVOCATE evaluated the efficacy and safety of avacopan in patients with ear, nose, throat (ENT), or lung manifestations.
methodsThis post hoc analysis included patients enrolled in ADVOCATE with ENT or lung manifestations at baseline. Outcomes included remission at weeks 26 and 52, respiratory tract manifestations over time, relapse rate, glucocorticoid-related toxicity, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and safety.
resultsADVOCATE included 144 patients with ENT manifestations (avacopan: n = 75, prednisone taper: n = 69) and 142 with lung manifestations (avacopan: n = 71, prednisone taper: n = 71). Among patients with ENT manifestations, remission was achieved at week 26 by 72.0% (avacopan group) and 71.0% (prednisone taper group) and was sustained at week 52 by 62.7% (avacopan) and 53.6% (prednisone taper). Among patients with lung manifestations, remission was achieved at week 26 by 73.2% (avacopan) and 66.2% (prednisone taper) and sustained at week 52 by 67.6% (avacopan) and 53.5% (prednisone taper). The relapse rate, glucocorticoid toxicity, and measures of HRQoL favored avacopan for both respiratory tract manifestation groups. Safety was comparable across treatment groups.
conclusionPatients with GPA or MPA with ENT or lung manifestations demonstrated similar responses to avacopan, reflecting results reported in the overall ADVOCATE trial population and supporting the administration of avacopan in these subgroups.
