NCT00069329

Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of anakinra (Kineret) for treating patients with neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID), also known as chronic infantile neurological, cutaneous and arthropathy (CINCA) syndrome. This disease can cause rash, joint deformities, brain inflammation, eye problems, and learning difficulties. Immune suppressing medicines commonly used to treat other pediatric rheumatologic diseases do not suppress NOMID symptoms and, if used long-term and in high doses, can cause harmful side effects. Anakinra, approved by The Food and Drug Administration for treating rheumatoid arthritis in adults, blocks a substance called IL-1 that may be an important factor in causing the inflammation in NOMID.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (21)

  • Diary Symptom Sum Score (DSSS) (Fever, Rash, Joint Pain, Vomiting, and Headaches)

    "The severity of the main symptoms of the disease were scored on a scale from 0 (no symptoms) to 4 (highest severity) on a daily basis using a diary. Five key symptoms were included in the primary variable DSSS: fever, headache, rash, joint pain, and vomiting. Each of the diary variables was evaluated as a mean value for a period preceding the visits. The baseline value was the mean value of the 5-30 last days before the first dose of Kineret. For the subsequent visits, the mean value of the last 30 days with data before each visit was used as the response variable."
