Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChanges in Auto-Inflammatory Diseases Activity Index score after 6-month treatment over baselineThe previous 1 month before treatment and the 6th month after treatment
Patients or their parents completed a 1-month (31 days) prospective diary with 12 yes/no items( Fever ≥38°C, Overall symptoms, Abdominal pain, Nausea/vomiting, Diarrhoea, Headaches, Chest pain, Painful nodes, Arthralgia or myalgia, Swelling of the joints, Eye manifestations, Skin rash) at the previous 1 month before treatment, and the 6th month after treatment . Each item of this diary was dichotomised as no (0)=absence of symptom or yes (1)=presence of symptom. The calculation of the Auto-Inflammatory Diseases Activity Index score is straightforward, consisting of the sum of all 12 items (0-372 in a month of 31 days). Higher values represent higher disease activity.
SecondaryChanges in Auto-Inflammatory Diseases Activity Index score at the 1st and 3rd month over baselineThe previous 1 month before treatment and the 1st and 3rd month after treatment
Patients or their parents completed a 1-month (31 days) prospective diary with 12 yes/no items( Fever ≥38°C, Overall symptoms, Abdominal pain, Nausea/vomiting, Diarrhoea, Headaches, Chest pain, Painful nodes, Arthralgia or myalgia, Swelling of the joints, Eye manifestations, Skin rash) at the previous 1 month before treatment, and the 1st and 3rd month after treatment . Each item of this diary was dichotomised as no (0)=absence of symptom or yes (1)=presence of symptom. The calculation of the Auto-Inflammatory Diseases Activity Index score is straightforward, consisting of the sum of all 12 items (0-372 in a month of 31 days). Higher values represent higher disease activity.
SecondaryChanges in inflammatory markers, including C-reactin protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, serum amyloid protein, interleukin-1β and interleukin-18, at 1, 3 and 6 months over baselineBaseline and at 1, 3 and 6 months after treatmentC-reactin protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, serum amyloid protein, interleukin-1β and interleukin-18 are measured at baseline,1, 3 and 6 months after treatment.
SecondaryChanges in physician global assessment of disease activity on a 0-10 visual analog scale (VAS) at 1, 3 and 6 months over baselineBaseline and 1, 3 and 6 months after treatmentVisual analogue scale (VAS) for overall disease activity were completed by the physician at each visit (Baseline and 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment).
SecondaryChanges in parent/patient global assessment of well-being on a 0-10 visual analogue score (VAS) at 1, 3 and 6 months over baselineBaseline and 1, 3 and 6 months after treatmentVisual analogue scale (VAS) for overall disease activity were completed by the parent/patient at each visit (Baseline and 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment).
SecondaryChanges in CSF white blood cell count for CINCA patientsBaseline and 6 months after treatment.For CINCA patients, Lumbar punctures (LPs) were performed at baseline and 6 months after treatment.
SecondaryChanges in MRI of the brain and inner ear for CINCA patientsBaseline and 6 months after treatment.For CINCA patients, MRIs with gadoliniumenhanced fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequences of the brain and inner ear were performed and scored at baseline and 6 months after treatment.
SecondaryChanges in audiology data for CINCA patientsBaseline and 6 months after treatment.
For CINCA patients, Hearing assessment included audiological evaluations. Outcomes in each ear were categorised as 'stable' or 'worsened', according to a modification of the American Speech and Hearing Association (ASHA) criteria, comparing the results at 6 months after treatment over baseline.
SecondaryNumber of participants with adverse effectUp to 6 monthsTreatment-related adverse effect, including abnormal liver function, hematuria and decreased white blood cells
