Explore how ILARIS® (canakinumab) treatment, tailored to your needs, can provide effective management of autoinflammatory conditions and help improve your quality of life.
What is ILARIS®?
A Targeted Therapy for Autoinflammatory Conditions
ILARIS® is a targeted biologic treatment specifically approved for treating several autoinflammatory conditions, including Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (SJIA), adult-onset Still’s disease, and rare periodic fever syndromes such as CAPS (Cryopyrin-Associated Periodic Syndromes) and, sometimes, for gout. As part of VIP Rheumatology’s comprehensive care approach, Ilaris® provides an FDA-approved treatment that works by blocking interleukin-1β (IL-1β), a key protein involved in inflammatory and immune responses that contributes to these conditions.
With ILARIS®, many patients experience significant benefits:
Rapid reduction in inflammation and associated symptoms
Decreased frequency and severity of disease flares
Improved joint function and mobility
Convenient dosing schedule with injections as infrequent as every 8 weeks
One remarkable feature of ILARIS® is its unique ability to provide sustained relief with minimal maintenance doses. By targeting a specific pathway in the inflammatory process, ILARIS® offers a more targeted approach to treating autoinflammatory conditions. Many patients experience noticeable improvements in symptoms within days of starting treatment, with results continuing to provide lasting relief.
