Program Overview

The comprehensive program provides up-to-date information regarding EGPA—its recognition,

diagnosis, and treatment—and incorporates the patient perspective to raise awareness of

patients’ needs, heighten urgency, and, ultimately, educate on the disease. The program will

explore new insights into the mechanisms of EGPA immunopathogenesis. Additionally, it will

provide health care providers with an update on standard of care treatment options based for

the different EGPA stages. A multidisciplinary approach to care is necessary to achieve optimal

outcomes in EGPA. As such, this activity will provide clinicians with tools to better implement

multidisciplinary, patient-centered approached to care into their clinical pratice.
