Although the diagnosis is based primarily on microscopic features, patient stratification relies on clinical data such as proteinuria and etiological criteria.

This analysis of ADVOCATE evaluated the efficacy and safety of avacopan in patients with ear, nose, throat (ENT), or lung manifestations.
Methods: This post hoc analysis included patients enrolled in ADVOCATE with ENT or lung manifestations at baseline.
