NCT00991146

Brief Summary

To date there are no approved effective therapies for the treatment of cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) including Familial Cold Autoinflammatory Syndrome (FCAS), Muckle-Wells Syndrome (MWS), or Neonatal Onset Multisystem Inflammatory Disease (NOMID) in Japan. The study will assess the efficacy and safety of canakinumab in Japanese patients with cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS). In previous and currently ongoing CAPS studies (CACZ885A2102, CACZ885D2201, CACZ885D2304, CACZ885D2306), it has been observed that treatment with canakinumab in patients with CAPS contributed to ensure absence of relapse, to improve signs and symptoms and to prevent secondary disease complications. However, no Japanese patients have been included in those studies. This study will allow access for Japanese patients to a new potentially efficacious treatment for CAPS patients with a convenient dosing regimen.

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

  • Presence, or history of at least 2 of the following symptoms:
  • For NOMID patients:
  • Typical NOMID urticarial rash
  • Signs of central nervous system (CNS) involvement such as increased intracranial pressure and/or papilledema and/or cerebral spinal fluid pleiocytosis and/or stroke and/or seizures, and/or sensorineural hearing loss
  • Typical arthropatic changes on X-rays: epiphysal and/or patellar overgrowth With start of NOMID symptoms before or at 6 months of age
  • For MWS patients:
  • periodic fever
  • headache/migraine
  • arthralgia
  • urticarial skin rash
  • conjunctivitis
  • myalgia
  • sensorineural hearing impairment
  • For FCAS patients:
  • +6 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women.
  • All women capable of becoming pregnant unless they are postmenopausal or are using one or more methods of contraception.
  • Participation in any other study within 30 days
  • Infection with HIV, Hepatitis B or C.
  • Live vaccinations within 3 months prior to the start of the trial, during the trial, and up to 3 months following the last dose.
  • History of drug or alcohol abuse within the 12 months prior to dosing.
  • Donation or loss of 400 mL or more of blood within 8 weeks prior to dosing for adults.
  • History of significant medical conditions, which in the doctor's opinion would exclude the patient from participating in this trial.
  • History of renal transplantation.
  • Presence of any additional rheumatic diseases or significant systemic diseases. For example, major chronic infectious/ inflammatory/ immunologic disease (such as inflammatory bowel disease, psoriatic arthritis, spondyloarthropathy, systemic lupus erythematosus in addition to the autoinflammatory disease).
  • Presence of any of the following laboratory abnormalities: ALT or AST greater than 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), platelet count less than 100x109/L.
  • History of recurrent and/or evidence of clinically significant active bacterial, fungal, or viral infections.
  • History of contact with patients with suspected tuberculosis symptoms; or history or complication of tuberculosis infection.
  • Use of the following therapies:
  • Etanercept in the 4 weeks prior to the baseline visit (Day 1) and thereafter
  • +14 more criteria
