Clinical Trial Summary

This study has the following objectives: Primary objective: - To determine the safety and tolerability of oral ITF2357 in patients with active SOJIA with inadequate response or intolerance to standard therapy with oral steroids and methotrexate, with or without previously used biologic agents. Secondary objectives: - to evaluate the effect of ITF2357 on disease activity in patients with active SOJIA - to investigate the possibility of steroid dose tapering in patients with active SOJIA during ITF2357 treatment - to assess the effect of ITF2357 on levels of circulating cytokines - to assess the pharmacokinetic properties of ITF2357


Clinical Trial Description

The present study has been designed in order to evaluate safety and tolerability of ITF2357 in patients with active SOJIA with inadequate response or intolerance to standard therapy with oral steroids and methotrexate, with or without previously used biologic agents, and to have a preliminary evaluation of efficacy of ITF2357 in the treatment of SOJIA. ITF2357 will be administered orally at the daily cumulative dose of 1.5 mg/kg: this dose in children/young adults is considered roughly equivalent to the dose of 1 mg/kg/day in adults, which so far has been proven to be free of any relevant safety concerns both in healthy volunteers and in patients. ;
