Brief Summary:

Primary Objective:

To describe the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of sarilumab in patients aged 2-17 years with Polyarticular-course Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (pcJIA) in order to identify the dose and regimen for adequate treatment of this population

Secondary Objective:

To describe the pharmacodynamic (PD) profile, the efficacy and the long-term safety of sarilumab in patients with pcJIA.


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis Drug: Sarilumab Phase 2

Detailed Description:
For approximately 72 patients enrolled in the dose-finding and second portions, the total study duration per patient will be 166 weeks that will consist of a 4- week screening, a 12-week core treatment phase, a 144-week extension phase, and a 6-week post-treatment follow-up. For approximately 28 patients enrolled in the third portion, the total study duration per patient will be 106 weeks that will consist of a 4- week screening, a 12-week core treatment phase, a 84-week extension phase, and a 6-week post-treatment follow-up.

Drug Information available for: Sarilumab

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Sarilumab
Participants will receive one of three ascending dose regimens of sarilumab by subcutaneous (SC) injection based on body weight. All the participants will receive the selected dose regimen once this is identified. Sarilumab will be given during 12-week core treatment phase followed by an extension treatment phase (144 weeks for approximately 72 patients enrolled in dose-finding and second portions and 84 weeks for approximately 28 patients enrolled in third portion)
Drug: Sarilumab
Pharmaceutical form:Solution Route of administration: Subcutaneous
