This prospective observational study collects safety and effectiveness information on Ilaris (canakinumab) given in routine care to people treated for hereditary periodic fever syndromes or systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA). It includes pediatric patients (≥2 to <19 years) receiving Ilaris for CAPS, crFMF, TRAPS, HIDS/MKD or sJIA, and people (≥19 years) receiving Ilaris for the hereditary periodic fever syndromes (CAPS, crFMF, TRAPS, HIDS/MKD) only. Data collection covers up to 4 years (2 years enrollment plus 2 years observation) and may include retrospective baseline and early-treatment data for people who started Ilaris before joining the study.

What it is studying. The study is collecting and evaluating safety (adverse events and serious adverse events) and measures of effectiveness for Ilaris when used in routine clinical practice, including physician assessments, inflammatory blood markers, and quality-of-life measures.

What the researchers hope to learn. Scientific goals are to describe the incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events with Ilaris, and to evaluate measures of disease response and control (including Physician Global Assessment, CRP and SAA changes, proportions of complete responders, symptom severity assessments, and health-related quality-of-life over time).

What this study is about

The study's own summary, as published on ClinicalTrials.gov. Underlined terms have a short explanation.

This is a study to evaluate safety and effectiveness of Ilaris in adult and pediatric patients receiving the drug in a clinical setting for any of the following indications, Hereditary Periodic Fever Syndromes, Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS), colchicine resistance familial Mediterranean fever (crFMF), TNF receptor associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS), Hyper-IgD syndrome / Mevalonate kinase deficiency (HIDS/MKD) or Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA).

Eligibility

The criteria exactly as listed on ClinicalTrials.gov. Only the study team can say whether they apply to you.

Inclusion criteria

  • Written informed consent/assent of the patient or their legal representative/parent (≥2 year and <19 year-old pediatric patient) for voluntarily participating in this study
  • Age: ≥2 year and <19 year-old pediatric and ≥19 year-old adult hereditary periodic fever syndrome (CAPS, crFMF, TRAPS and HIDS/MKD) patients and ≥2 year and <19 year-old sJIA patients
  • Patient who have an agreement to be treated or who have already started treatment with Ilaris in accordance with the approved label information

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients receiving Ilaris treatment for autoimmune disease other than CAPS, crFMF, TRAPS, HIDS/MKD or sJIA
  • Patients participating in an interventional clinical trial which would have an impact on routine clinical treatment

Study description and what participation involves

The study's detailed description, as published on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Detailed description from the registry

This is a prospective observational, multicenter, uncontrolled, open-label non-interventional study in ≥2 year and <19 year-old pediatric and ≥19 year-old adult hereditary periodic fever syndrome patients and ≥2 year and <19 year-old sJIA patients receiving Ilaris for the treatment of CAPS, crFMF, TRAPS, HIDS/MKD and sJIA, respectively, partially using retrospective observation to collect and evaluate data on the safety and effectiveness of Ilaris in patients receiving this drug in a clinical setting for any of these indications. The whole study period is up to 4 years, consisting of a 2-year enrollment period and 2-year observation period. As all pediatric and adult hereditary periodic fever syndrome patients and all sJIA patients receiving Ilaris for approved indications will be enrolled, this study has no fixed sample size. For subjects who started Ilaris before enrolling in this study, the safety and effectiveness baseline and early period data will be retrospectively collected.

Participants will have information about their Ilaris treatment and health collected from their medical records and during routine clinic visits; the study does not assign or change treatment. Collected data include reports of adverse events, physician assessments of disease activity (Physician Global Assessment), blood tests such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum amyloid A (SAA), and health-related quality-of-life questionnaires (CHQ-PF50, SF-36, WPAI-SHP). For people who started Ilaris before joining, some baseline and early treatment data will be collected retrospectively; thereafter participants are followed prospectively for up to 2 years after enrollment. The registry record lists these observational data collection activities and does not report additional invasive procedures (for example, biopsies or spinal taps).

How the study is structured. This is a prospective, observational cohort study without treatment allocation: participants receive Ilaris as prescribed by their usual doctor and the study records outcomes. It is multicenter and non-interventional, with up to 4 years of total data collection (2 years enrollment, 2 years follow-up). The study will collect physician global assessments of disease activity, laboratory markers such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum amyloid A (SAA), adverse event reports, and health-related quality-of-life questionnaires (for example CHQ-PF50, SF-36, WPAI-SHP). For people who started Ilaris before enrolling, some baseline and early-treatment information will be collected retrospectively.

Questions you could ask

These questions are suggestions for a conversation with the study team or your own clinician, not advice.

  • This is an observational study, so the study itself gives no treatment. What would taking part involve for me, and would it change my usual care?
  • The listed sites are in South Korea. Is any of them reachable for me, and does the study help with travel?
  • Which of the eligibility criteria would need to be checked with tests before I could join?
