简要总结
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in patients with active systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) who have an inadequate clinical response to NSAIDs and corticosteroids. In Part I of the study patients will be randomized 2:1 to receive iv infusions of RoActemra/Actemra (8mg/kg iv for patients >=30kg, or 12mg/kg for patients <30kg) or placebo, every 2 weeks. Stable NSAIDs and methotrexate will be continued throughout. After 12 weeks of double-blind treatment, all patients will have the option to enter Part II of the study to receive open-label treatment with RoActemra/Actemra for a further 92 weeks, followed by a 3-year continuation of the study in Part III in which, for patients who meet specific criteria, an optional alternative dosing schedule decreasing the study drug administration frequency will be introduced. Anticipated time on study treatment is up to 5 years.

结局指标
主要结局
Part I: Percentage of Participants With ≥30% Improvement in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Core Set and Absence of Fever
时间窗: Baseline, Week 12
Percentage of participants with ≥30% improvement in ACR core set consisting of 6 components: 1) Physician's global assessment of disease activity Visual Analog Scale (VAS), 2) Parent/Patient global assessment of overall well-being VAS, 3) Maximum number of joints with active arthritis, 4) Number of joints with limitation of movement, 5) Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate, and 6) Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire- Disability Index (CHAQ-DI) consisting of 30 questions in 8 domains. Absence of fever was defined as no diary temperature recording ≥37.5° Celsius in the preceding seven days.
Part II: Percentage of Participants With Decreases in Oral Corticosteroid Dose at Week 104
时间窗: Baseline, Week 104
Percentage of participants with ≥20 percent, ≥50 percent, ≥75 percent and ≥90 percent decreases in oral corticosteroid dose (mg/kg/day) from baseline.
