Title: IL1T-AI-0505: A Multi-center, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of the Safety, Tolerability, & Efficacy of Rilonacept in Subjects With Cryopyrin-Associated Periodic Syndromes (CAPS) Using Parallel Group & Randomized Withdrawal Designs
Brief Summary: Inflammatory symptoms of Cryopyrin-Associated Periodic Syndrome (CAPS) are due to mutations in a the NLRP-3 gene (previously known as Cold Induced Autoinflammatory Syndrome-1 or CIAS1). These mutations result in the body's overproduction of interleukin-1 (IL-1), a protein that stimulates the inflammatory process. IL-1 Trap (rilonacept) was designed to bind to the interleukin-1 cytokine and prevent it from binding to its receptors in the body.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Male and female patients between 12 and 75 years of age with active type 1 FMF disease (according to Tel-Hashomer criteria for diagnosis of FMF) despite colchicine therapy (1.5 to 2.0 mg/day).
* Patients who are intolerant to effective doses of colchicine (1.5 to 2 mg/day)
* Patients with demonstrated minimum 1 typical acute attack per month and genetic confirmation of diagnosis (with at least one of the known MEFV gene exon 10 mutations). Patients with manifested amyloidosis are excluded.
* Patients must have a historical data showing a frequency of at least 1 attack/month within the last 3 months before they can be enter the run-in period.
* Patients must have type 1 disease characterized by recurrent and short episodes of inflammation and serositis with an average of at least 1 documented acute FMF attack per month during the previous 6 months and lasting approximately 12 to 72 hours.
* Patients treated with IL-1 therapies must complete washout and have experienced at least 2 attacks since (e.g. Anakinra: 3 day washout; Rilonacept: 3 week washout)
* Patients treated with anti-TNF drugs must undergo appropriate washout. Prior to randomization, use of Etanercept must be discontinued for 4 weeks or use of Adalimumab or Infliximab must be discontinued for 8 weeks.
* Female subjects of childbearing potential must be using two acceptable methods of contraception
* Patients treated with Interferon therapies must complete 1 month washout period.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with end-organ dysfunction due to amyloidosis (e.g. existing biopsy proven amyloidosis or proteinuria \> 0.5 gram per day)
* Patients taking steroids within 1 month prior to baseline
* Presence or history of any other inflammatory rheumatic disease
* Positive PPD test (according to local guidance) where a latent or active TB infection cannot be excluded via Quantiferon (T-Spot or radiographic imaging if needed).
* Patients who are pregnant or lactating
* Presence of any active or chronic infection or any major episode of infection requiring hospitalization or treatment with i.v. antibiotics within 30 days or oral antibiotics within 14 days prior to screening
* History or a malignancy within the last 5 years, except for successfully excised squamous or basal cell carcinoma of the skin

Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Subject has a definitive diagnosis of FMF as by the Tel-Hashomer clinical criteria (long version of criteria) with at least one mutation on one of the MEFV gene alleles. However, subjects with an isolated heterozygous mutation of exon 2 of the MEFV gene (including E148Q) will not be eligible.
* Subject must have an estimated mean of at least one acute FMF attack per month before and during the month of screening.
* Subject is at least four years of age (with no upper limit of age).
* Subjects must have received an adequate trial of colchicine defined as treatment of at least 1.5 mg/d for at least 3 months if ≥6 years old or 1.2 mg/d if less than 6 years, or an inability to tolerate colchicine due to adverse effects in a dose that controls acute attacks in the frequency of less than one attack per month.
* If subject is being treated with anakinra at the time of consent, washout must be done (about 3 days). Subject must experience 2 attacks before randomization visit can occur.
* If subject has been treated previously with anti-TNF drugs, appropriate washout must be done. Etanercept must be discontinued for 4 weeks prior to randomization; Adalimumab and Infliximab must be discontinued for 8 weeks prior to randomization.
* If subject is a female of childbearing potential, she must agree to use adequate contraception (adequate contraception can include abstinence) for the duration of the trial and 3 months after and must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test prior to administration of study medication.
* If subject is a male and has reached puberty, he must agree to use adequate contraception or abstinence during the study and for 3 months after discontinuation from study.
* Subject's parent or legal guardian has provided written informed consent prior to screening for this study or if subject is older than 18 years has provided informed consent him/herself.
* Subject, if applicable, has assented to participate prior to screening for this study.
* Subject and, if applicable, parent/legal guardian, agree to comply with study requirements and are able to come to the clinic for all required study visits.

Exclusion Criteria:

* The subject has existing biopsy proven amyloidosis or proteinuria \>0.5 gram per day.
* The subject has another active inflammatory rheumatic disease.
* The subject has an active malignancy of any type, or history of a malignancy.
* The subject has active GI disease (e.g., inflammatory bowel disease), a chronic or acute renal or hepatic disorder, or a significant coagulation defect.
