ANCA (anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody)-associated vasculitis is characterised by small vessel vasculitis and presence of autoantibodies, ANCA. It can be a life-threatening disease with renal/respiratory failure. Current standard therapy in induction remission for ANCA-associated vasculitis is combination of high-dose glucocorticoid and IV-cyclophosphamide.
