In most patients, treatment with colchicine can prevent attacks of fever and inflammation. However, 5%– 10% of patients are resistant to colchicine treatment, while a similar percentage cannot tolerate colchicine in doses needed to prevent attacks. For these patients, Canakinumab, a full human antibody against IL-1β, has been approved recently by the FDA and EMA. In this article, we present a systematic review of the long-term efficacy, safety, and tolerability of Canakinumab in FMF patients who cannot tolerate colchicine or who are resistant to colchicine treatment.Keywords: familial mediterranean fever, Canakinumab, anti-IL1 therapyKacar MSavic Svan der Hilst JCHDove Medical Pressarticlefamilial mediterranean fevercanakinumabanti-il1 therapyPathologyRB1-214Therapeutics.
