Interferon-α for Induction and Maintenance of Remission in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis: A Single-center Retrospective Observational Cohort Study.

Objective: Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is characterized by frequent relapses following induction therapy. Interferon-α (IFN-α) can reverse the underlying Th2-driven immune response and has successfully induced remission in previous reports. We undertook this study to investigate its efficacy and safety in patients with EGPA.
