Clinical Trial Summary

Giant cell arteritis (GCA) or Horton's disease: frequent large vessel vasculitis (cephalic) (incidence estimated at 9 per 100,000 in France), potentially responsible for blindness. Treatment: corticosteroid therapy, which is effective in the vast majority of cases. Clinical problem: relapse; 36% to 44% of patients have a relapse that occurs in the first year for many patients, requiring a re-escalation of corticosteroid therapy, with its consequences: - Cumulative dose of corticosteroid therapy that causes cardiovascular and infectious morbidity. - Requires additional immunosuppressive treatment.
