Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Children aged 2–18 and adults aged 19+ in Korea who are receiving Ilaris for CAPS, colchicine-resistant FMF, TRAPS, HIDS/MKD, or sJIA and who provide informed consent are eligible.

Probably not a fit

Patients receiving Ilaris for autoimmune diseases other than the listed indications, those enrolled in other interventional trials that impact routine care, children under age 2, or people not treated per the approved label may not benefit from this registry.

What this trial studies

This is a prospective, multicenter, uncontrolled, open-label non-interventional study enrolling pediatric (age 2–18) and adult (19+) patients in Korea who are receiving Ilaris for CAPS, crFMF, TRAPS, HIDS/MKD, or sJIA. The study combines prospective observation with retrospective baseline data for patients who started Ilaris before enrollment and follows participants for up to 2 years of observation after a 2-year enrollment period (total up to 4 years). Treatments follow routine clinical care and approved labeling rather than protocol-driven interventions, and there is no fixed sample size because all eligible treated patients at participating sites will be included. Safety and effectiveness events will be collected and summarized to describe real-world use of Ilaris in these indications.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this could provide real-world safety and effectiveness data to help clinicians and families make informed treatment decisions for these rare inflammatory conditions.

How similar studies have gone: Randomized trials and observational reports have previously shown canakinumab (Ilaris) is effective for CAPS and sJIA and has benefit in other periodic fever syndromes, so this study aims to confirm those effects in routine clinical practice in Korea.
