简要总结
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of belimumab, in combination with azathioprine, for the maintenance of remission following a standard induction regimen in patients with Wegener's granulomatosis or microscopic polyangiitis. The random assignment in this study is "1 to 1" which means that participants have an equal chance of receiving belimumab or placebo.

研究组 & 干预措施
Placebo plus azathioprine
Placebo IV plus oral azathioprine 2 mg/kg/day; placebo administered on Days 0, 14, 28, and then every 28 days until the end of the study. If the results in the double-blind period show that belimumab is safe and effective, then participants have the option to receive treatment with belimumab in a 6-month open-label extension phase. Placebo patients who opt to participate in the extension will receive belimumab 10 mg/kg IV every 28 days plus oral azathioprine 2 mg/kg/day for an additional 6 months.
干预措施: Placebo (Biological)
Placebo plus azathioprine
Placebo IV plus oral azathioprine 2 mg/kg/day; placebo administered on Days 0, 14, 28, and then every 28 days until the end of the study. If the results in the double-blind period show that belimumab is safe and effective, then participants have the option to receive treatment with belimumab in a 6-month open-label extension phase. Placebo patients who opt to participate in the extension will receive belimumab 10 mg/kg IV every 28 days plus oral azathioprine 2 mg/kg/day for an additional 6 months.
干预措施: Azathioprine (Drug)
Belimumab 10 mg/kg plus azathioprine
Belimumab 10 mg/kg IV plus oral azathioprine 2 mg/kg/day; belimumab administered on Days 0, 14, 28, and then every 28 days until the end of the study. If the results in the double-blind period show that belimumab is safe and effective, then participants have the option to continue treatment with belimumab in a 6-month open-label extension phase. Patients who opt to participate in the extension will continue to receive belimumab 10 mg/kg IV every 28 plus oral azathioprine 2 mg/kg/day days for an additional 6 months.

结局指标
主要结局
Time to First Relapse
时间窗: Approximately up to 4 years
Time to relapse is defined as the number of days from Day 0 until the participant experienced a relapse (relapse date - treatment start date +1). Only post-baseline relapses were considered in these analyses. Only relapses occurring up to and including the last visit date in the double-blind treatment period were considered in these analyses. Intent-to-treat population comprised of all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study agent (belimumab or placebo). NA indicates that the data was not available as the Number of events is too low to estimate the value. Median and Inter-quartile range were presented and were based on Kaplan Meier estimates.
