Complete and Long-Lasting Response

ILARIS® Delivered Much-Needed Relief in CAPS (Cryopyrin-Associated Periodic Syndrome)

In a clinical study of 35 patients, ILARIS® (canakinumab) provided complete and long-lasting response from a rare, genetic condition called CAPS. (Learn more about CAPS in the section Facts About CAPS .)

97% of Patients Had Complete Response Within the First Treatment Period (8 Weeks)

  • The majority of patients (71%) experienced a complete response in just 7 days
    • Complete response was measured by lab results and by the doctor's evaluation of the patient's skin disease and symptoms being minimal or better, including symptoms such as:
      • Rash
      • Fatigue
      • Muscle pain
      • Headache or migraine
      • Sore or red eyes
      • Joint pain

The Majority of Patients Had Long-Lasting Response

  • In a clinical study, no ILARIS® patients experienced a flare of their symptoms over 8 months (just 4 treatments)
    • A flare was measured by lab results and by the doctor's evaluation of the patient's symptoms being mild or worse, or an evaluation of both the patient's symptoms and skin disease being minimal or worse
