| NCT03737110 | Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Rilonacept Treatment in Participants With Recurrent Pericarditis | PHASE3 | COMPLETED | 86 | — | — | Jan 7, 2019 | Jun 30, 2022 | Sep 6, 2023 | 21 | United States, Australia +2 |
Time to pericarditis recurrence (from randomization to 1st recurrence). Kaplan-Meier. Clinical Events Committee (CEC)-confirmed recurrences used for primary analysis. Recurrence defined as recurrence typical pericarditis pain with supportive objective evidence. CEC-adjudicated recurrences defined as:1) Re-appearance/worsening pericarditis pain (1 NRS ≥ 4) AND elevated CRP (≥1.0 mg/dL) on same day/separated by ≤ 7 days OR 2) Re-appearance/worsening pericarditis pain (1 NRS ≥ 4) AND abnormal CRP (\> 0.5 mg/dL) on same day/separated by ≤ 7 days AND 1 supportive evidence OR 3) Re-appearance/worsening pericarditis pain (no NRS ≥ 4) AND elevated CRP (≥ 1.0 mg/dL) not attributable to other causes AND 1 supportive evidence. Supportive evidence: White blood cell count \> upper limit normal, fever \> 38C, pericardial rub, electrocardiogram changes consistent with pericarditis, new/worsening pericardial effusion (echocardiogram), new/worsening pericardial inflammation (magnetic resonance imaging).

| Rilonacept | EXPERIMENTAL | RI period: single-blind rilonacept 320 mg (or 4.4 mg/kg in pediatric participants) SC, followed by 160 mg (or 2.2 mg/kg in pediatric participants) injections once weekly. RW period: eligible participants randomized to double-blinded administration of rilonacept 160 mg (or 2.2 mg/kg in pediatric participants) SC injections once weekly. Participants with pericarditis recurrence who meet the protocol criteria for bailout rilonacept (report at least 1 day with pericarditis pain ≥4 on the 11-point NRS and have 1 CRP value ≥ 1 mg/dL \[either on the same day or separated by no more than 7 days\]) receive bailout rilonacept (2 open-label injections of 160 mg rilonacept \[or 4.4 mg/kg for pediatric participants\]) irrespective of randomized treatment assignment and as soon as at least 5 days have passed since the last study drug injection. LTE period: open-label administration of rilonacept 160 mg (or 2.2 mg/kg in pediatric participants) SC injections once weekly. |
| Placebo | PLACEBO_COMPARATOR | RI period: single-blind rilonacept 320 mg (or 4.4 mg/kg in pediatric participants) SC, followed by 160 mg (or 2.2 mg/kg in pediatric participants) injections once weekly. RW period: eligible participants randomized to placebo SC injections once weekly. Participants with pericarditis recurrence who meet the protocol criteria for bailout rilonacept (report at least 1 day with pericarditis pain ≥4 on the 11-point NRS and have 1 CRP value ≥ 1 mg/dL \[either on the same day or separated by no more than 7 days\]) receive bailout rilonacept (2 open-label injections of 160 mg rilonacept \[or 4.4 mg/kg for pediatric participants\]) irrespective of randomized treatment assignment and as soon as at least 5 days have passed since the last study drug injection. LTE period: open-label administration of rilonacept 160 mg (or 2.2 mg/kg in pediatric participants) SC injections once weekly. |
