Kawasaki Disease Refractory to Initial Therapy With Intravenous Immunoglobulin

Keywords

Infliximab, REMICADE, TA-650, intravenous immunoglobulin, Kawasaki disease, IVIG

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TA-650 in comparison with a control drug Polyethylene Glycol-treated Human Immunoglobulin (VGIH) in patients with Kawasaki disease refractory to initial therapy with Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG). The pharmacokinetics of TA-650 is also examined.

Interventions

DRUGTA-650

TA-650 at 5 mg per kg body weight on the day of TA-650 administration (day 0) is administered by intravenous infusion slowly over at least 2 hours.

DRUGPolyethylene Glycol-treated Human Immunoglobulin (VGIH)

VGIH at 2 g per kg body weight on the day of VGIH administration (day 0) is administered by intravenous infusion slowly over at least 20 hours.
