Summary

This trial is testing Tadekinig alfa, a drug that blocks a protein called IL-18 to reduce inflammation. It targets children with specific genetic conditions causing severe inflammation. The goal is to manage their symptoms until they can receive a stem cell transplant.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with specific genetic disorders (NLRC4 mutation or XIAP deficiency) who were in a previous Phase III study and either completed it or needed rescue immunosuppression. They must not have withdrawn voluntarily, be pregnant, or have severe organ issues, life-threatening infections or bleeding, recent live vaccinations, tuberculosis history, or use of certain immunosuppressants.
What is being tested?
The trial tests the long-term safety and effectiveness of Tadekinig alfa in children with monogenic autoinflammatory diseases due to NLRC4 mutations/XIAP deficiency. It's an extension for those who've been part of a prior related trial.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, generally such treatments may cause immune system reactions, potential organ inflammation due to overactive immune responses and could interact with other medications.
