What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ACZ885Biological

    Also called Canakinumab

Study groups in NCT01576367
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
canakinumabExperimentalPatients will receive a standard dose at an equivalent of 2 mg/kg s.c. of canakinumab (ACZ885) every 8 weeks. Possible dose and/or dosing regimen adjustments that can be administered include: 4 mg/kg s.c. (every 4 to 8 weeks) 6 mg/kg s.c. (every 4 to 8 weeks) 8 mg/kg s.c. (every 4 to 8 weeks)
Receives: Biological: ACZ885

What is being measured

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

  1. The Percentage of Participants Without Disease Relapse as Determined by the Physician's Global Assessment of Autoinflammatory Disease Activity, Assessment of Skin Disease and Serological Inflammation Markers.

    Disease relapse following complete response is defined as inflammation markers: C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and/or Serum Amyloid A (SAA) result > 30 mg/L AND Physician's Global Assessment of Autoinflammatory Disease Activity > minimal or Physician's Global Assessment >= minimal AND Skin Disease Assessment > minimal. Physician's Global Assessment of Autoinflammatory Disease Activity and Skin Disease Assessment (urticarial skin rash) are completed by the investigator using a 5 point rating scale: absent, minimal, mild, moderate and severe.

    Measured: Week /80, 104, 128, and 152 (A minimum of 6 months and maximum of 24 months)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Immunogenicity of Canakinumab (ACZ885). Number of Participants With Anti-canakinumab Antibodies

    Immunogenicity assessment included determination of anti-canakinumab (ACZ885) antibodies in serum samples using BIAcore system, with detection based on surface plasmon resonance technique.

    Measured: minimum of 6 months and maximum of 24 months

  2. Change From Baseline (Core Study Baseline) in C--Reactive Protein (CRP) and Serum Amyloid A (SAA) Concentrations

    CRP and SAA were used as serologic inflammatory markers. The target level concentrations for CRP and SAA was ≤15 mg/L and ≤10 mg/L, respectively. Negative change in concentration of inflammatory markers indicated improvement.

    Measured: Week 0, 80, 104, 128 and 152, last assessment

  3. Frequency Counts of Physician's Global Assessment of Autoinflammatory Disease and Skin Disease

    Participants were assessed based by physician on Physician's Global Assessment measured on a 5--point scale for auto inflammatory disease activity as: 0 = None/absent; 1 = Minimal; 2 = Mild; 3 = Moderate; 4 = Severe

    Measured: minimum of 6 months and maximum of 24 months

  4. Number of Vaccination Cases With Protective Antibody Levels Following Immunization With Inactivated Vaccines

    Participants who received any inactivated vaccines during the study were assessed for their ability to attain protective antibody levels against the vaccine (antigen) post immunization. Participants vaccinations were not assessed for a response if the antibody titre was already sufficient at pre-dose and maintained during the study.

    Measured: pre-vaccine dose, Day 28 post-vaccine

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing ACZ885 in people with Cryopyrin-associated Periodic Syndromes and Familial Cold Autoinflammatory Syndrome, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 12 sites in 7 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 11 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Germany, Belgium, Spain, Canada, France and 2 more countries. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Aug 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

The Percentage of Participants Without Disease Relapse as Determined by the Physician's Global Assessment of Autoinflammatory Disease Activity, Assessment of Skin Disease and Serological Inflammation Markers. (time frame: Week /80, 104, 128, and 152 (A minimum of 6 months and maximum of 24 months)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01576367, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 11 Sep 2018.
