An Open-label, Multicenter Study of the Pharmacokinetics, Efficacy and Safety of Olokizumab in Pediatric and Adolescent Patients With Active Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis


Sponsor

R-Pharm International, LLC

Enrollment

71 participants

Start Date

Mar 17, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of olokizumab (OKZ) in patients with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis aged \>2 and \<18 years in two doses (64 mg or 48 mg every 4 weeks) depending on patient's weight. Secondary objectives are to evaluate the pharmacodynamic (PD) profile, the long-term efficacy and safety of olokizumab in patients with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis aged \>2 and \<18 years.
