Thank you for this. This video has a lot of gold nuggets of information on updates of treatment of GPA and other vasculitic diseases. I am in the medical field and got recently diagnosed with EGPA a few months ago, and currently on steroids and immunosuppresants. I stumbled upon your video looking for more information on EGPA. This is helpful, with regards to awareness, especially to medical practitioners who are in third world countries who cannot have immediate access to advance medicine.
Thank you for your kind words. We are so glad you found this helpful. Here are additional resources specific to EGPA which you may also find useful.

@@vasculitisfoundation thank you very much ❤️
Very informative. Thank you for this.
We are so glad you found this helpful. We have additional resources on GPA on our website www.vasculitisfoundation.org

Very informative - thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful! You can find more information about GPA as well as resources such as virtual support groups, upcoming educational webinars, and more on our website www.vasculitisfoundation.org
I have this disease. It has ruined my life. Going back for another round of rituxumab. I have lots of problems from the high doses of prednisone. Hopefully a cure comes soon.
We, like you, are hoping for a cure. Until then, we hope you can find some comfort in connecting with a community of other people who understand your struggles. We offer online virtual support groups and an online chat community where you can connect with others.

Hi. Same here. Can't lift anything heavy. After Ritotxi saved me, I go on but man some days I'm on fire inside. Keep pushing on.
Please make CAR T cells for vasculitis happen! Let me know where I can sign up!
Researchers are looking into how CAR-T cells may be helpful in the treatment of vasculitis and other autoimmune diseases. In fact, I just heard a fabulous presentation on CAR-T cell research at a conference the Vasculitis Foundation held last weekend. The recording should be up on our TH-cam channel soon. One thing that presentation covered was that while promising, CAR-T cells therapy is not a magic bullet and unfortunately, as with any treatment, there are side effects and unintended consequences. Some people who have received CAR-T cell treatment for certain types of cancer have been found to be at higher risks of other types of cancer after CAR-T cell treatment. There is also increased risk of patients experiencing cytokine storms with CAR-T cell therapy. Here's information on cytokine storms my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/22700-cytokine-release-syndrome
As with any treatment, there are pro's and con's to CAR-T cell therapy, but we are all excited about the future of CAR-T cell therapy in the treatment of vasculitis. There are currently no trials that we are aware of for CAR-T cell therapy in the treatment of vasculitis, but you can find out about vasculitis clinical trials here www.vasculitisfoundation.org/treatments-research/participate-in-research/clinical-trials/
@@vasculitisfoundation Thanks for the info!
Here's the presentation that included a discussion of CAR-T Cell therapy starting at about minute 15 th-cam.com/video/NjAzb6lcVW4/w-d-xo.html
