Purpose

The registry will focus on furthering the understanding of the natural history of recurrent pericarditis (RP), as well as document RP-related clinical, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and economic burden and will assist the medical community to refine or develop data-driven recommendations for clinical management of RP patients to optimize clinical outcomes. It also aims to generate data in support of the impact of rilonacept on clinical outcomes in a real-world population.

Arm Groups

ArmDescriptionAssigned Intervention
Active RP Patients who are currently under the care of a physician for treatment of RP, currently on treatment for RP, and have had an episode (recurrence of typical pericarditis pain associated with supportive objective evidence of pericarditis) in the last 3 years prior to enrollment. Once included in the registry, these patients will have both retrospective and prospective follow-up and data collection (hybrid design).
Inactive RP Patients who have had a diagnosis of RP, have not had an episode for 3 years and have not been prescribed any treatment for RP in the last 3 years, prior to enrolling in the registry. Once included in the registry, data collected from these patients will be retrospective only.
