FINALLY, A BREAKTHROUGH TREATMENT


FOR YOUR PATIENTS WITH RECURRENT PERICARDITIS1


FINALLY, A BREAKTHROUGH TREATMENT


FOR YOUR PATIENTS WITH RECURRENT PERICARDITIS1






ARCALYST® (RILONACEPT) IS THE FIRST AND ONLY FDA-APPROVED TREATMENT INDICATED
FOR THE TREATMENT OF RECURRENT PERICARDITIS AND THE REDUCTION IN RISK OF
RECURRENCE IN ADULTS AND CHILDREN 12 YEARS AND OLDER1.

ARCALYST, an IL-1 soluble decoy receptor, blocks the underlying mechanism that
drives inflammation in recurrent pericarditis.


ARCALYST AT A GLANCE



THE RISK OF RECURRENCE

Up to
30%
of individuals with a first episode of acute pericarditis will experience a
recurrence totaling ~40,000 patients.2,3

Learn more about the prevalence of recurrent pericarditis, the underlying cause
of recurrent inflammation, and why reducing the risk of recurrence matters for
your patients.

Why ARCALYST?

BREAKTHROUGH RESULTS

In the pivotal trial,
96%
reduction in risk of recurrent pericarditis episodes
(hazard ratio: 0.04; p<0.0001).1



The efficacy and safety of ARCALYST were evaluated in RHAPSODY, a Phase 3,
double-blind, placebo-controlled, event-driven, randomized withdrawal study
(N=61).

The primary efficacy endpoint was time to first adjudicated pericarditis
recurrence in the randomized withdrawal period.

Important Safety Information

Warnings and Precautions

 * Interleukin-1 (IL-1) blockade may interfere with the immune response to
   infections. Treatment with another medication that works through inhibition
   of IL-1 or inhibition of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is not recommended as
   this may increase the risk of serious infection. Serious, life-threatening
   infections have been reported in patients taking ARCALYST. Do not initiate
   treatment with ARCALYST in patients with an active or chronic infection.
 * Discontinue ARCALYST if a patient develops a serious infection.
 * It is possible that taking drugs such as ARCALYST that block IL-1 may
   increase the risk of tuberculosis (TB) or other atypical or opportunistic
   infections.
 * Although the impact of ARCALYST on infections and the development of
   malignancies is not known, treatment with immunosuppressants, including
   ARCALYST, may result in an increase in the risk of malignancies.
 * Hypersensitivity reactions associated with ARCALYST occurred in clinical
   trials. Discontinue ARCALYST and initiate appropriate therapy if a
   hypersensitivity reaction occurs. 
 * Increases in non-fasting lipid profile parameters occurred in patients
   treated with ARCALYST in clinical trials. Patients should be monitored for
   changes in their lipid profiles.
 * Since no data are available, avoid administration of live vaccines while
   patients are receiving ARCALYST. ARCALYST may interfere with the normal
   immune response to new antigens, so vaccines may not be effective in patients
   receiving ARCALYST. It is recommended that, prior to initiation of therapy
   with ARCALYST, patients receive all recommended vaccinations, as appropriate.

Adverse Reactions

 * In patients with CAPS or RP, the most common adverse reactions (≥10%) include
   injection-site reactions and upper respiratory tract infections.
 * In patients with DIRA, the most common adverse reactions (>10%) include upper
   respiratory tract infections, rash, otitis media, pharyngitis, and
   rhinorrhea.

Drug Interactions

 * In patients being treated with CYP450 substrates with narrow therapeutic
   indices, therapeutic monitoring of the effect or drug concentration should be
   performed, and the individual dose of the medicinal product may need to be
   adjusted.

For more information about ARCALYST, see full Prescribing Information.
