Canakinumab is a recombinant human monoclonal antibody which binds to IL-1β (interleukin-1 beta). It’s mode of action is based on the neutralization of IL-1β signaling, resulting in suppression of inflammation in patients with disorders of autoimmune origin. In June 2009, the FDA approved canakinumab for the treatment of cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS), a spectrum of autoinflammatory syndromes. In September 2016, the FDA approved it’s use for three additional rare and serious auto-inflammatory diseases: tumor necrosis factor receptor associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS), hyperimmunoglobulin D syndrome (HIDS)/mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD), and familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). In June 2020, canakinumab was FDA-approved for the indication to treat active Still's disease, including adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD).
