Clinical trial
A Study of Decreased Dose Frequency in Patients With Systemic Juvenile Arthritis Who Experience Laboratory Abnormalities During Treatment With RoActemra/Actemra (Tocilizumab)
This open-label Phase IV study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in reduced dose frequency in patients with adequately controlled systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis who have experienced a laboratory abnormality on twice weekly RoActemra/Actemra dosing. Patients will receive RoActemra/Actemra 12 mg/kg or 8 mg/kg intravenously every 3 weeks. After 4 consecutive infusions, patients who experience an event of neutropenia, thrombocytopenia or liver enzyme abnormality will move to every 4 weeks RoActemra/Actemra administration. Anticipated time on study treatment is 52 weeks.
