Clinical Trial Summary

It has been reported that around 40% of GCA patients are able to decrease the prednisone dose until 0.1 mg/Kg/d or less after 6 months of treatment. In this study, we hypothesized that adding 3 months of tocilizumab to prednisone could increase the percentage from 40 to 70%.
