Experimental liquid drug tested in ventilator patients with rare lung bleeding disease

NCT ID NCT07556484

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early study tests whether a liquid form of the drug avacopan can be safely given through a feeding tube to critically ill patients with ANCA vasculitis who have severe lung bleeding and need a ventilator. The main goal is to measure how the drug levels change in the blood over 72 hours. Only 6 participants will be enrolled at Mayo Clinic.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

avacopan (Tavneos)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a way to give avacopan to very sick patients who cannot swallow pills, potentially helping control severe lung inflammation.

What could go wrong

This is a tiny, early-phase study with only 6 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The drug is given in an experimental liquid form, and its safety and effectiveness in this setting are not yet known.
