SAT0510 LONG-TERM EFFECTIVENESS OF CANAKINUMAB IN AID – INTERIM ANALYSIS OF THE CAPS SUBGROUP FROM THE RELIANCE REGISTRY

Background: 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. Conclusion: The 18-month interim analysis of the RELIANCE study, the longest running real-life CAN registry, demonstrates that long-term CAN treatment is safe and effective in CAPS patients.
