Abstract: The cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndromes (CAPS) are hereditary monogenic autoinflammatory diseases with severe systemic and organ inflammation due to increased production of Interleukin-1β (IL-1β). The subcutaneously administered monoclonal antibody canakinumab (CAN) effectively inhibits IL-1β and results in rapid remission of CAPS symptoms in clinical trials as well as in real-life. Objectives The RELIANCE registry is designed to explore long-term safety and effectiveness of CAN under routine clinical practice conditions in pediatric (≥2 years) and adult patients with CAPS, including Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS), familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS), and neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID)/chronic infantile neurological cutaneous and articular syndrome (CINCA). Methods This prospective, non-interventional, observational study with a 3-year follow-up enrolls patients in Germany with clinically confirmed diagnoses of CAPS routinely receiving CAN. In 6-monthly visits, clinical data, physician assessments and patient-reported outcomes are evaluated starting at baseline. Results 98 CAPS patients (52% female; 15 [15%] NOMID/CINCA subtypes) were enrolled by December 2021 (Table 1). At baseline, median age was 20 years and median duration of prior CAN treatment was 6 years. At the 36 months visit, 74% of patients reached disease remission by physicians´ assessment along with increasing rates of absent disease activity (patient’s assessment, median 2.0 at baseline and 0.0 month 36). In addition, patients reported low levels of fatigue (absent to mild/moderate: 87% at baseline and 95% at month 36). At baseline, CAPS impaired social life in 47% of patients (37% at month 36) and 33% (23% at month 36) reported days off from school/work. Lab parameters were within normal limits. Remission and disease control were sustained as evaluated parameters remained stable or even decreased over time. Table 1.

Abstract: In clinical trials as well as in real-life, the IL-1ß inhibitor canakinumab leads to rapid remission of symptoms in the treatment of CAPS, a monogenic autoinflammatory disease with severe systemic and organ inflammation. Objectives: The RELIANCE registry is designed to explore long-term safety and effectiveness of canakinumab under routine clinical practice conditions in pediatric (≥2 years) and adult patients with CAPS, including Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS), familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS), and neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID)/chronic infantile neurological cutaneous and articular syndrome (CINCA). Methods: This prospective, non-interventional, observational study with a 3-year follow-up enrolls patients with clinically confirmed diagnoses of CAPS routinely receiving canakinumab. In 6-monthly visits, clinical data, physician assessments and patient-reported outcomes are evaluated starting at baseline with last update at 30 months of follow-up in the total cohort including the cohort with severe CAPS subtypes (NOMID/CINCA). Results: 91 CAPS patients (50% female; 14 [15%] NOMID/CINCA subtypes) were enrolled by December 2020 (Table 1). At baseline, median age was 20.5 years and median duration of prior canakinumab treatment was 6 years. 11 drug related severe adverse events per 100 patient years were reported. 68% of patients reached disease remission by physicians´ assessment along with rates of 40-61% absent disease activity in PGA. Patients reported stable low level disease activity, fatigue and Auto-Inflammatory Diseases Activity Index scores (AIDAI, figure 1). CAPS was impairing social life in 50% of patients and another 50% reported days off from school/work. Lab parameters were within normal limits. Table 1.

Abstract: Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) is a rare autoinflammatory condition characterized by severe systemic and organ inflammation. In a phase 3 pivotal trial ( CLUSTER study), TRAPS patients have been successfully treated with the interleukin-1β inhibitor canakinumab. 45% of patients reached clinical remission after 16 weeks (primary endpoint) 1 . Canakinumab has been approved and applied for the treatment of TRAPS patients since 2017 2 . Objectives: The present study explores the long-term efficacy and safety of canakinumab under routine clinical practice conditions in pediatric (age ≥2 years) and adult TRAPS patients. Methods: RELIANCE is a prospective, non-interventional, multi-center, observational study based in Germany with a 3-year follow-up period. Patients with clinically confirmed diagnoses of TRAPS, CAPS, FMF or HIDS/MKD who routinely receive canakinumab are enrolled in order to evaluate efficacy and safety of canakinumab under standard clinical practice conditions. Disease activity and remission by physician assessment, disease activity and fatigue by patient assessment, days absent from school/work due to study indication, inflammatory markers, and AIDAI (Auto-Inflammatory Diseases Activity Index) score were assessed at baseline and at 6-monthly intervals. Results: The interim analysis of TRAPS patients enrolled by December 2020 includes baseline (N=16, including 1 patient with atypical TRAPS) and preliminary 18-month data. Mean age in this cohort was 23 years (3−43 years) and the median duration of prior CAN treatment was 1.0 year (0−4 years). Physician assessment indicated 60-80% remission and laboratory parameters were within normal range. Disease control by patient assessment showed no major changes regarding the analyzed parameters (Table 1, Figure 1). Of the three serious adverse events reported none was classified as drug-related. Conclusion: Preliminary analysis of 18 month interim data of TRAPS patients treated with CAN available from the RELIANCE study indicate stable efficacy and safety of CAN long-term treatment.

Abstract: Autoinflammatory diseases (AID) are characterized by severe systemic and organ inflammation as well as high burden of disease for patients and their families. Treatment with the monoclonal antibody canakinumab (CAN), an interleukin-1β inhibitor, has been proven to be safe and effective in clinical trials and real-life. Objectives The present study explores the long-term efficacy and safety of CAN in routine clinical practice conditions in pediatric (age ≥2 years) and adult patients with CAPS (cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes), FMF (familial Mediterranean fever), TRAPS (tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome) and HIDS/MKD (hyperimmunoglobulinemia D syndrome/mevalonate kinase deficiency). Methods RELIANCE is a prospective, non-interventional, observational study based in Germany. Patients with clinically confirmed diagnoses of AID routinely receiving CAN are enrolled. Besides efficacy parameters regarding disease activity and remission, safety parameters were recorded at baseline and assessed at 6-monthly intervals. Results Here, we present the interim analysis of patients with AID (N=199) enrolled in the RELIANCE Registry between October 2017 and December 2021. Mean age in this cohort was 24.4 years (2–79 years) and the proportion of female patients was 53% (N=104). At baseline, median duration of prior CAN treatment was 2 years (0–12 years). A total of 123 patients (62%) experienced any AE (N=653) among which nasopharyngitis, increase of inflammatory markers and pyrexia were the most frequent AE with incidence rates per 100 patient years (IR) of 8.3, 6.2, and 6.2, respectively. 29 patients (15%) were affected by severe AE (SAE, total number N=90) including 11 patients (6%) with SAE suspected to be drug-related (SADR; total number N=30) with IR from 0.2 to 0.7 (Table 1). Overall, 16 AE comprised upper respiratory tract infections (URI). One death (COVID-19, not related) and one malignancy (skin papilloma, not related) were reported. No vertigo and no hypersensitivity reactions were observed. N=10 (IR 2.36) vaccination reactions were reported (no SAE). Table 1.

Abstract: Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a chronic disease characterized by recurrent attacks of fever as well as serositis and bears the risk of serious complications (e. g. amyloidosis). Treatment of FMF according to EULAR aims to control acute attacks and subclinical inflammation as well as to improve patient´s quality of life 1 . Clinical data indicate that the inhibition of interleukin-1β with canakinumab (CAN) is effective in controlling and preventing flares in FMF patients 2 . Objectives The present study explores the long-term efficacy and safety of canakinumab in routine clinical practice conditions in pediatric (age ≥2 years) and adult FMF patients. Methods RELIANCE is a prospective, non-interventional, multi-center, observational study based in Germany with a 3-year follow-up period. Patients with clinically confirmed FMF diagnosis who routinely receive canakinumab are enrolled in order to evaluate effectiveness and safety of canakinumab. Disease activity and remission by physicians´ assessment, disease activity, fatigue and impact on social life by patients’ assessment, inflammatory markers and AIDAI (Auto-Inflammatory Diseases Activity Index) score were recorded at baseline and assessed at 6-monthly intervals within the 3-year observation period of the study. Results This interim analysis of FMF patients (N=74) enrolled by December 2021 includes baseline as well as 6- to 24-month data. Mean age in this cohort was 25 years (2−61 years) and the proportion of female patients was 51 % (N=38). At baseline, median duration of prior CAN treatment was 1.0 years (0−6 years). At month 24, physician ratings report around 63% of patients in disease remission and patient-reported disease activity (mean PPA) decreased from moderate (3.0) to low (2.6) during the observation period. Other disease activity parameters also decreased (Table 1). A total of 18 serious adverse events were reported, of which 2 (1 case of tonsillectomy and 1 case of tachycardia) were classified as drug - related. Table 1.

Abstract: Autoinflammatory periodic fever syndromes characterized by excessive interleukin(IL)-1b release and severe systemic and organ inflammation have been successfully treated with the anti-IL-1 inhibitor canakinumab (CAN). In clinical trial situations and real life, rapid remission of symptoms and normalization of laboratory parameters were observed in most patients. 1-3 Objectives: The present study explores long-term effectiveness and safety of CAN under routine clinical practice conditions in pediatric and adult patients with CAPS (cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes), FMF (familial Mediterranean fever), TRAPS (tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome) and HIDS/MKD (hyperimmunoglobulinemia D syndrome/mevalonate kinase deficiency). Methods: RELIANCE is a prospective, non-interventional, multi-center, observational study based in Germany with a 3-year follow-up period. Pediatric (age ≥2 years) and adult patients with clinically confirmed diagnoses of CAPS, FMF, TRAPS and HIDS/MKD that routinely receive CAN are enrolled in order to evaluate effectiveness and safety of CAN in clinical routine. Results: This first interim analysis of patient subgroups diagnosed with FMF, HIDS and TRAPS includes baseline data of 41 patients (10 TRAPS, 2 HIDS, 29 FMF), including preliminary 6-month data of a FMF-subset (N=16). Evaluation of disease activity and fatigue by patients’ assessment, days absent from school/work, inflammatory markers and physician global assessment (PGA) was performed at baseline and will be further assessed at 6-monthly intervals within the 3-year observation period.

Abstract: Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is characterized by recurrent attacks of fever and serositis as well as elevated inflammatory markers. FMF treatment goals according to EULAR are to control acute attacks and subclinical inflammation and to improve patients´ quality of life 1 . In a phase 3 pivotal study ( CLUSTER study), FMF patients treated with the interleukin-1β inhibitor canakinumab met all these goals 2 . Objectives: The present study explores the long-term efficacy and safety of canakinumab (CAN) in routine clinical practice in pediatric (age ≥2 years) and adult FMF patients. Methods: RELIANCE is a prospective, non-interventional, multi-center, observational study based in Germany with a three-year follow-up period. Patients with clinically confirmed diagnosis of FMF who routinely receive CAN were enrolled in order to evaluate effectiveness and safety of CAN under standard clinical practice conditions. Disease activity and remission by physicians´ assessment, disease activity, fatigue and impact on social life by patients’ assessment, inflammatory markers and AIDAI (Auto-Inflammatory Diseases Activity Index) score were recorded at baseline and were assessed at 6-monthly intervals within the three-year observation period of the study. Results: This interim analysis of FMF patients (N=54) enrolled by December 2020 includes baseline as well as 6-, 12- and 18-month data. Mean age in this cohort was 25 years (4−56 years) and the proportion of female patients was 46 % (N=25). At baseline, median duration of prior CAN treatment was 2.0 years (0−6 years). While physician ratings report around 62% of patients in disease remission, 52% with absent and 34% with mild-moderate disease activity, patient-reported disease activity decreased from moderate (PPA 3.0) to low (PPA 2.0) during the observation period. A decrease was observed regarding disease activity parameters, in particular in patients without prior CAN therapy (Table 1, Figure 1). A total of 11 serious adverse events was reported, of which one case of tonsillectomy was classified as drug-related. Conclusion: Interim data of FMF patients from the RELIANCE study, the longest running real-life CAN registry, confirm efficacy and safety of long-term CAN treatment. References: [1]Ozen S, et al.

Abstract: Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) is a rare hereditary autoinflammatory disease characterized by periodic fever as well as severe systemic and organ inflammation. Successful treatment was achieved with the interleukin-1β inhibitor canakinumab (CAN) in a pivotal phase 3 study, in which 45% of patients reached clinical remission after 16 weeks (primary endpoint) 1 . CAN has been approved and applied for the treatment of TRAPS patients since 2017 2 . Objectives The present study explores the long-term efficacy and safety of CAN under routine clinical practice conditions in pediatric (age ≥2 years) and adult TRAPS patients. Methods RELIANCE is a prospective, non-interventional, multi-center, observational study based in Germany. Patients with clinically confirmed diagnosis of TRAPS who routinely receive CAN are enrolled in order to evaluate efficacy and safety of CAN under standard clinical practice conditions at baseline and at 6-monthly intervals. Results The interim analysis of TRAPS patients enrolled by December 2021 includes baseline (N=19, 1 patient with atypical TRAPS) and preliminary 24-month data. Of these patients, N=12 (63%) were females and median age at baseline was 16 years (3–43 years). Preliminary results indicate stable remission by physicians´ assessment and laboratory parameters. Disease control by patients´ assessment showed no major changes over time (Table 1). In total, N=7 adverse drug reactions where observed, of which none was classified as severe. Table 1.

Abstract: Hyper-IgD syndrome/mevalonate kinase deficiency (HIDS/MKD) is a rare autoinflammatory condition caused by a defect in the gene coding for mevalonate kinase. This periodic fever syndrome is characterized by severe systemic and organ inflammation. Treatment with interleukin-1β inhibitor canakinumab (CAN), approved and applied for treatment of HIDS/MKD patients since 2017 [1], resulted in rapid remission of symptoms and normalization of laboratory parameters in most patients in clinical trials [2] as well as in real-life. Objectives To explore the long-term efficacy and safety of CAN under routine clinical practice conditions in pediatric (age ≥2 years) and adult HIDS/MKD patients. Methods RELIANCE is a prospective, non-interventional, multi-center, observational study based in Germany with a 3-year follow-up period. Patients with clinically confirmed diagnoses of TRAPS, CAPS, FMF or HIDS/MKD who routinely receive CAN are enrolled in order to evaluate efficacy and safety of CAN under standard clinical practice conditions at baseline and at 6-monthly intervals. Results The present interim analysis shows baseline data of 8 HIDS/MKD patients enrolled by December 2021 as well as preliminary 18-month data. Of these patients, 5 (63%) were females and median age at baseline was 8 years (2–39 years). The median duration of prior CAN treatment at baseline was 1.5 years (0–5 years). Standard, low, and high dose CAN treatment was evenly distributed at every interval. Preliminary results indicate stable remission and disease control by physicians´ and patients´ assessment as well as laboratory parameters (Table 1). In total, 4 patients were affected by adverse drug reactions, however, none of these events was classified as serious. Table 1.

Abstract: In the treatment of monogenic autoinflammatory diseases (AID), a heterogeneous group of diseases with excessive interleukin (IL)-1β release and severe systemic and organ inflammation, the anti-IL-1 inhibitor canakinumab (CAN) has been associated with rapid remission of symptoms in clinical trials as well as in real-life. 1-3 Objectives: The aim of the RELIANCE registry is to explore long-term effectiveness and safety of CAN under routine clinical practice conditions in pediatric and adult patients with CAPS (cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes, including Muckle-Wells syndrome [MWS], familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome [FCAS] , neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease [NOMID]/chronic infantile neurological cutaneous and articular syndrome [CINCA] ), FMF (familial Mediterranean fever), TRAPS (tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome) and HIDS/MKD (hyperimmunoglobulinemia D syndrome/mevalonate kinase deficiency). Methods: This prospective, non-interventional, observational study is based in Germany with a 3-year follow-up and enrolls pediatric ≥2 years and adult patients with clinically confirmed diagnoses of CAPS, FMF, TRAPS and HIDS/MKD routinely receiving CAN. In 6-monthly visits, clinical data and patient-reported outcomes are assessed. Study endpoints are long-term effectiveness and safety of CAN. Here, the CAPS cohort was analyzed. Results: This 18-month interim-analysis includes 78 CAPS patients (49% females) enrolled by September 2019. Mean age at baseline was 25 years and mean duration of prior CAN treatment was 5.7 years. 64 patients (82%) had MWS, 2 FCAS, 7 NOMID/CINCA, 3 atypical CAPS and 2 lacked subtype diagnosis. Disease activity, fatigue and social impairment by patients’ assessment, days absent from school/work, inflammatory markers, and remission by physician assessment were evaluated at 6-monthly intervals starting at baseline with last update at 18 months of follow-up (table 1). The results demonstrate sustained remission and disease control as evaluated parameters remained stable over time. Serious adverse events were reported for 9 patients including papillitis, pyrexia, tonsillitis (n=2), appendicitis, chest pain, circulatory collapse, skin disorders, and preterm delivery. Table 1.
