Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of CCX168 (avacopan) to induce and sustain remission in patients with active anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV), when used in combination with cyclophosphamide followed by azathioprine, or in combination with rituximab The primary objective of the open-label extension (OLE) phase of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety of CCX168 in patients with AAV who have completed 52 weeks of treatment with CCX168 (avacopan) or placebo in the double-blind phase. Safety will be assessed based on the incidence of adverse events and changes in vital signs, physical examinations, clinical laboratory tests, and ECGs. ;Secondary Objective: 1. Evaluation of the glucocorticoid-induced toxicity compared between test and control group 2. Evaluation of rapidity of response compared between test and control group 3. Evaluation of the safety compared between test and control group 4. Assessment of health-related quality-of-life changes compared between test and control group 5. Assessment of changes in parameters of renal disease compared between test and control group 6. Assessment of changes in cumulative organ damage compared between test and control group 7. Assessment of changes in markers of pharmacodynamics in plasma and urine compared between test and control group 8. Evaluation of the pharmacokinetic profile of CCX168 in patients with AAV. OLE exploratory efficacy objectives: 1. durability of the effectiveness of continued CCX168. 3. changes in cumulative organ damage during the OLE 4. health-related quality-of-life changes during the OLE 5. changes in parameters of renal disease during the OLE.;Primary end point(s): 1.

Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Secondary efficacy endpoints include: 1. Glucocorticoid-induced toxicity as measured by change from baseline over the first 26 weeks in the glucocorticoid toxicity index; 2. Early remission, defined as BVAS of 0 at Week 4; 3. Change from baseline over 52 weeks in health-related quality-of-life as measured by the domains and component scores of the SF-36 v2 and EQ-5D-5L VAS and index; 4. Proportion of patients and time to experiencing a relapse after previously achieving remission in the study; relapse is defined as occurrence of at least one major item in the BVAS, or three or more minor items in the BVAS, or one or two minor items in the BVAS recorded at two consecutive visits, after having achieved remission at week 26 (BVAS = 0 and having received glucocorticoids for treatment of vasculitis for 4 weeks) 5. In patients with renal disease at baseline (based in the BVAS renal component), the change in eGFR from baseline over 52 weeks; 6. In patients with renal disease at baseline (based in the BVAS renal component), the percent change in UACR from baseline over 52 weeks; 7. In patients with renal disease at baseline (based in the BVAS renal component), the percent change in urinary MCP-1:creatinine ratio from baseline over 52 weeks; 8. Change in the VDI from baseline over 52 weeks. Safety endpoints, other than glucocorticoid-induced toxicity listed under the efficacy endpoints, include: 1. Patient incidence of treatment-emergent serious adverse events, adverse events, and withdrawals due to adverse events; 2. Change from baseline and shifts from baseline in all safety laboratory parameters; 3. Change from baseline in vital signs, and 4. Incidence of clinically significant ECG changes from baseline. PK endpoint: CCX168 (and metabolite) plasma concentration results will be used to calculate trough plasma concentrations (Cmin) over the course of the clinical trial.
