What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To monitor and further explore the overall safey of canakinumab focusing in serious infections

    Measured: At least 5 years

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Long-term impact of Ilaris on disease progression (including systemic AA amyloidosis as evidenced by renal function, neurologic and ophthalmologic symptoms, and sensorineural deafness)

    Measured: At least 5 years

  2. Growth and development patterns of children aged 4 to 18 years of age exposed to Ilaris

    Measured: at least 5 years

  3. Identify previously unrecognized serious adverse drug reactions in the treated population

    Measured: at least 5 years

  4. Usage and patterns of dosing of Ilaris in routine clinical practice

    Measured: at least 5 years

  5. Incidence of serious infections

    Measured: at least 5 years

  6. Incidence of malignancies

    Measured: at least 5 years

  7. Incidence of hypersensitivity reactions
