CRP treatment comparisons (OR [95% CI]): FMF (22.51 [5.41, 93.62]), HIDS/MKD (6.05 [2.14, 17.12]), and TRAPS (3.88 [1.05, 14.26]).
The efficacy of ILARIS was assessed in patients with PFS across 3 disease cohorts: FMF, HIDS/MKD, and TRAPS. In the 16-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment period, patients were randomized to receive ILARIS 150 mg (2 mg/kg for a body weight of ≤40 kg) or placebo every 4 weeks for 16 weeks and were allowed uptitration to ILARIS 300 mg (or 4 mg/kg) every 4 weeks for patients whose disease flare did not resolve or who had persistent disease, or active treatment.
The primary endpoint was the proportion of complete responders within each cohort as defined by patients who had resolution of their index disease flare at Day 15 and did not experience a new disease flare during the remainder of the 16-week treatment period.
Complete response was defined as resolution of index flare (PGA <2 and CRP ≤10 mg/L or a ≥70% reduction from baseline) at Day 15 and no new flare (PGA ≥2 and CRP ≥30 mg/L) throughout the 16-week treatment period.
A 5-point PGA scale was used by physicians to assess overall disease severity, where 0=no disease-associated signs and symptoms, 1=minimal, 2=mild, 3=moderate, and 4=severe. The key signs and symptoms assessed in the PGA for each condition were the following: FMF: abdominal pain, skin rash, chest pain, and arthralgia/arthritis; HIDS/MKD: abdominal pain, lymphadenopathy, and aphthous ulcers; TRAPS: abdominal pain, skin rash, musculoskeletal pain, and eye manifestations.

Percentage of Patients Achieving Complete Clinical Response With ILARIS
- Physician’s assessment of disease activity ≤ minimal (rated on a 5-point scale consisting of absent, minimal, mild, moderate, and severe)
- Assessment of skin disease ≤ minimal (rated on a 5-point scale consisting of absent, minimal, mild, moderate, and severe)
- Normal serum values of CRP and SAA (<10 mg/L)
Assessment of disease activity included a composite of the following symptoms: urticarial skin rash, headache/migraine, fatigue/malaise, conjunctivitis, arthralgia, myalgia, and other symptoms related or unrelated to CAPS.

A 3-part study in patients with CAPS (MWS) treated with a subcutaneous dose of ILARIS 150 mg (in patients weighing >40 kg) or ILARIS 2 mg/kg (in patients weighing ≥15 kg and ≤40 kg) every 8 weeks.
Part 1
An 8-week open-label treatment period in which 35
patients were treated with a single injection of ILARIS 150 mg.
Part 2
A double-blind, randomized withdrawal phase in
which patients who achieved a complete clinical response and did not relapse
by Week 8 in Part 1 were randomized to ILARIS 150 mg or 2 mg/kg in patients
weighing ≥15 kg and ≤40 kg (n=15) or placebo (n=16) every 8 weeks for 24
weeks. During Part 2, patients continued with blinded treatment unless a
relapse occurred to prompt early entry into Part 3.
Part 3
An open-label treatment period in which patients
received ILARIS 150 mg (n=31) every 8 weeks. Patients entered Part 3 at the
end of Part 2 or at the time of relapse, whichever occurred first. For
patients who completed Part 2 without disease flare, Part 3 had a duration of
16 weeks. For patients who had disease relapse in Part 2, Part 3 had a
duration of up to 40 weeks. The total study duration was 48 weeks.
The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients experiencing relapse in Part 2.
