Department Name: Medicine
Abstract
There is a need for new therapies to reduce time to remission in patients suffering from ANCA associated Vasculitis treated with Rituximab. This project mechanistically investigates the utility of targeting the Bcell survival factor B-Lys in combination with rituximab in reducing remission in the setting f ANCA associated Vasculitis
