First seen May 10, 2026 · Last updated May 30, 2026 · Updated 8 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding bosentan to standard steroid treatment helps people with giant cell arteritis (GCA) stay relapse-free longer and use less steroids. About 40 adults with GCA will receive either bosentan plus steroids or steroids alone for 3 months, then be followed for a year. The goal is to see if the combination reduces flares and allows safer steroid tapering.
