Change From Baseline in JADAS27.
Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score (JADAS) includes 4 measures: physician global assessment of disease activity, patient or parent global assessment of overall well-being, 27 active joint count, and CRP. The JADAS27 includes the 27 joints. JADAS27 is calculated as the sum of its four components, physician global assessment of disease activity converted to cm from the VAS (0=no activity, 10=maximum activity); patient global assessment of well-being converted to cm from the VAS (0=very well, 10=very poor); active joint count (0-27); and CRP. Prior to calculation CRP is truncated to a 0 - 10 scale according to the following formula: (CRP (mg/l) -10)/10. Before calculation, CRP values <10 mg/l are converted to 10 and CRP values >110 mg/l are converted to 110. The JADAS27 tool yields a global score of 0-57.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and immunogenicity of anakinra in patients with newly diagnosed Still's disease, including SJIA (Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis) and AOSD (Adult-onset Still's disease).
Detailed Description
The study consists of a 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled period with two dose levels of anakinra and a 4-week safety follow-up after last dose of investigational medicinal product (IMP). The primary endpoint will be evaluated at Week 2. Sustained efficacy and time to study drug discontinuation will be evaluated during the full study period.
A screening visit is optional and may be done to identify patients that could be suitable for the study. During the study 6 visits and 2 telephone contacts are scheduled i.e., Day 1 (baseline visit), Day 4Tel, Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12 and Week 16Tel (End of Study).
Patients will be randomly assigned to study drug, after they meet all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. Patients will receive treatment for 12 weeks, either anakinra or placebo. Patients will be randomized to anakinra in a dose of either 2 or 4 mg/kg/day, with a maximum dose of 100 or 200 mg once daily, respectively. Patients will be randomized to placebo with corresponding volumes for each of the two anakinra dose levels.

Change From Baseline in JADAS27.
Description
Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score (JADAS) includes 4 measures: physician global assessment of disease activity, patient or parent global assessment of overall well-being, 27 active joint count, and CRP. The JADAS27 includes the 27 joints. JADAS27 is calculated as the sum of its four components, physician global assessment of disease activity converted to cm from the VAS (0=no activity, 10=maximum activity); patient global assessment of well-being converted to cm from the VAS (0=very well, 10=very poor); active joint count (0-27); and CRP. Prior to calculation CRP is truncated to a 0 - 10 scale according to the following formula: (CRP (mg/l) -10)/10. Before calculation, CRP values <10 mg/l are converted to 10 and CRP values >110 mg/l are converted to 110. The JADAS27 tool yields a global score of 0-57.
