Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: -Male and female patients aged =1 and =17 years at the time of the screening visit. -Diagnosis of systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) subtype according to the International Associations against Rheumatism (ILAR) 2001 Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis Classification Criteria with the following features at screening: -=5 active joints at screening or; -=2 active joints at screening with systemic JIA fever >37.5 °C in the 3 days preceding baseline or for at least 3 out of any 7 consecutive days during screening despite glucocorticoids at a stable dose for at least 3 days. -Patients with an inadequate response to current treatment and considered as a candidate for a biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) as per Investigator’s judgment. Are the trial subjects under 18? yes Number of subjects for this age range: 36 F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) no F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: -Body weight 60 kg. -Uncontrolled severe systemic symptoms and/or Macrophage Activation Syndrome within 6 months prior to screening. -If nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs, including cyclo-oxygenase-2 inhibitors (COX-2)] taken, dose stable for less than 2 weeks prior to the baseline visit and/or dosing prescribed outside of approved label. -If non-biologic DMARD taken, dose stable for less than 6 weeks prior to the baseline visit or at a dose exceeding the recommended dose as per local labeling. -If oral glucocorticoid taken, dose exceeding equivalent prednisone dose 1 mg/kg/day (or 60 mg/day) within 3 days prior to baseline. -Prior treatment with anti-interleukin 6 (IL-6) or IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) antagonist therapies, including but not limited to tocilizumab or sarilumab. -Treatment with any biologic DMARD within 5 half-lives prior to the first dose of sarilumab. -Treatment with a Janus kinase inhibitor within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of sarilumab. -Treatment with any Investigational biologic or non-biologic product within 8 weeks or 5 half-lives prior to baseline, whichever is longer. -Active tuberculosis patients or latent tuberculosis patients without adquate treatment. -Exclusion criteria related to past or current infection other than tuberculosis. -Any live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to the baseline, such as varicella-zoster, oral polio, rubella vaccines.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To describe the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of sarilumab in patients with sJIA in order to identify the dose and regimen for continued development in this population.;Secondary Objective: To describe: -The pharmacodynamic (PD) profile, the efficacy and the safety of sarilumab in patients with sJIA. -The long term safety of sarilumab in patients with sJIA.;Primary end point(s): - Assessment of PK parameter: maximum serum concentration observed (Cmax) - Assessment of PK parameter: Area under the serum concentration versus time curve calculated using the trapezoidal method during a dose interval (AUC0-t) - Assessment of PK parameter: Concentration observed before treatment administration during repeated dosing (Ctrough);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Up to week 12

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1- Number of patients with adverse events 2- Number of patients with local site reactions 3- Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) American College of Rheumatology 30 (ACR30) response rate 4- Change from baseline in individual JIA ACR components 5- Changes in IL-6 associated biomarkers 6- Number of patients with adverse events 7- Number of patients with local site reactions 8- Change from baseline in individual JIA ACR components;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1-5: Up to week 12 6-8: Up to week 104
