NCT04049071

TerminatedN/A

Sponsor: University of Leeds

Conditions: Giant Cell Arteritis

Countries: United Kingdom

A longitudinal post-marketing surveillance registry nested within the UK GCA Consortium that assesses the effectiveness and safety of tocilizumab in controlling refractory or relapsing forms of GCA in patients who require escalation of therapy to reach sustained remission. Half the patients recruited will have been prescribed tocilizumab (cases) and the other half will be prescribed alternative therapies (controls). There are four study visits over 18 months: baseline, 6 months, 12 months and 18 months. At each visit data is collected on demographics; diagnosis and investigations; previous and concomitant medications; medical history; co-morbidities, vital signs; smoking and alcohol; disease activity and damage; routine laboratory tests; reason for starting escalation therapy. Safety data is collected on an ongoing basis.
