About this study
Official title: Infliximab for Kawasaki Disease Patients Resistant to Intravenous Immunoglobulin : a Multicentre, Prospective, Randomised Trial
The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of infliximab to the children who don't respond to the first dose of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) (2g/kg) in Kawasaki disease.
Read the detailed description
Kawasaki disease(KD), the most common cause of acquired heart disease in developed countries, is a self-limited vasculitis that is treated with high doses of intravenous immunoglobulin. Resistance to intravenous immunoglobulin in Kawasaki disease which is defined as a temperature of 38.0°C or higher at 36 hours to 7 days after completion of the infusion of intravenous immunoglobulin increases the risk of coronary artery lesions. We will conduct a multicenter, randomized, prospective trial to determine whether the use of infliximab to the children who don't respond to the first dose of IVIG(2g/kg) reduces the risk of coronary artery diseases. The IVIG-resistant children will be randomly assigned to either the infliximab or IVIG group in a 1:1 ratio and receive either infliximab (5 mg/kg at 1 mg/mL intravenously over 2 h) or IVIG (2g/kg). The level of leukocyte (WBC)counts, C-reactive protein, alanine transaminase,interleukin- 1( IL-1), interleukin- 6(IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-a(TNF-a), soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor-1(STNFR-I), soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor-2(STNFR-2), the fever days,and the cost of hospital stay will be analyzed between these two groups.The final outcome is the incidence of coronary artery lesions.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
InfliximabDrug
The treatment-resistant children will be randomly assigned to either the infliximab or IVIG group in a 1:1 ratio and receive either infliximab (5 mg/kg at 1 mg/mL intravenously over 2 h) or IVIG (2g/kg). The primary outcome measure is change in absolute cell counts, concentrations of C-reactive protein, alanine transaminase,IL-1,IL-6,TNF-a,STNFR-I,STNFR-2; number of fever days (24 h period with a temperature of at least 38•0°C) from enrolment; duration and cost of hospital stay.The secondary 0utcome Measure is the incidence of coronary artery abnormalities
IVIGDrug
The treatment-resistant children will be randomly assigned to either the infliximab or IVIG group in a 1:1 ratio and receive either infliximab (5 mg/kg at 1 mg/mL intravenously over 2 h) or IVIG (2g/kg). The primary outcome measure is change in absolute cell counts, concentrations of C-reactive protein, alanine transaminase,IL-1,IL-6,TNF-a,STNFR-I,STNFR-2; number of fever days (24 h period with a temperature of at least 38•0°C) from enrolment; duration and cost of hospital stay.The secondary 0utcome Measure is the incidence of coronary artery abnormalities
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Infliximab | Experimental | For one group of patients with resistance to intravenous immunoglobulin in Kawasaki disease , we will give them infliximab (5mg/kg) once. Receives: Drug: Infliximab |
| IVIG | Active comparator | For the other group of patients with resistance to intravenous immunoglobulin in Kawasaki disease , we will give them IVIG (2g/kg) once. Receives: Drug: IVIG |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
change in concentrations of cytokines
we will obtain laboratory data including concentrations of C-reactive protein, alanine transaminase,IL-1,IL-6,TNF-a,STNFR-I,STNFR-2 at baseline, 72 h after completion of the intravenous immunoglobulin infusion, and at week 2 and week 4 after randomisation.
Measured: 2 years
Secondary outcomes (1)
incidence of coronary artery lesions(CAL)
Echocardiography is performed in the acute phase ,early and late recovery of Kawasaki disease
Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Infliximab and IVIG in people with Kawasaki Disease, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
change in concentrations of cytokines (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Feb 2016.
