Canakinumab (INN, trade name Ilaris, previously ACZ885)[2] is a human monoclonal antibody targeted at interleukin-1 beta. It has no cross-reactivity with other members of the interleukin-1 family, including interleukin-1 alpha.[3]

Canakinumab was approved for the treatment of cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on June 2009[4] and by the European Medicines Agency in October 2009.[5] CAPS is a spectrum of autoinflammatory syndromes including familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome, Muckle–Wells syndrome, and neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease. On September 2016, FDA approved the use of canakinumab on 3 additional rare and serious auto-inflammatory diseases:[6] Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Associated Periodic Syndrome (TRAPS), Hyperimmunoglobulin D Syndrome (HIDS)/Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency (MKD) and Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF).

Canakinumab was being developed by Novartis for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis but this trial was completed in October 2009.[7] Canakinumab is also in phase I clinical trials as a possible treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,[8] gout and coronary artery disease. It is also in trials for Schizophrenia.[9] In gout it may result in better outcomes than a low dose of a steroid but costs five thousand times more.[10]
