In cases of sustained remission, careful down-titration was carried out without evidence of relapses. None of the patients developed a new arterial lesion while receiving BT. Furthermore, revascularization procedures were not required during follow-up. All patients tolerated BT without infusion reactions. Other AEs attributable to BT were recurrent infections (one patient with IFX) and mild neutropenia (one patient with TCZ).

This was the patient under ETN therapy who suffered a recurrence at 24 months of BT and six months after GC withdrawal. She presented with PMR, high CRP and ESR without any ischemic complication and resolved with GC reintroduction. Overall, the daily dose of GC in GCA was reduced by 60%. No changes in concomitant IS agents was required. One AE was attributable to IFX (anaphylaxis) and 1 AE attributable to TCZ (mild neutropenia).
