Pericarditis Epidemiology
Of the 14,000 target population with multiple recurrences, there is a high turnover of ~50% of patients each year, meaning ongoing opportunities to ensure diagnosis and targeted treatment
Recurrent | Pericarditis | |
Pericarditis | ~160,000 | |
Multiple | Recurrent | Pericarditis |
~40,000 | ||
Recurrences | Pericarditis | ~160,000 |

Approximately 14,000 recurrent pericarditis patients in the U.S. suffer from persistent underlying disease, with multiple recurrences and inadequate response to conventional therapy1
~160,000: Epidemiological analysis using large national surveillance databases to calculate the pooled annualized prevalence of pericarditis
(Basis for Orphan Drug Designation)2
~40,000: Up to 30% experience at least one recurrence; some recur over multiple years3,4
~14,000: Nearly 50% annual turnover with ~7,000 patients entering into the pool each year5

Role of IL-1α and IL-1β in the Autoinflammatory Cycle of Recurrent Pericarditis
In addition to inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, promotion and progression of the inflammatory process in pericarditis is due to IL-1α and IL-1β
CRP, C-reactive protein; DAMPs, damage- associated molecular patterns; IL, interleukin; PAMPs, pathogen-associated molecular patterns; WBC, white blood cell.
The Autoinflammatory Cycle of Recurrent Pericarditis:
Tissue damage caused by IL-1α and IL-1β in the pericardium stimulates additional IL-1α and IL-1β, thereby creating a cycle of perpetual pericardial inflammation

RESONANCE: Growing Adoption of ARCALYST as a Steroid-Sparing Therapy1,2
RESONANCE is an ongoing observational registry in up to 500 patients from 29 US sites, collecting real-world data on RP natural history and disease management over a 6-yearintensive-observation period
The proportion (n=264) of IL-1 pathway inhibition use increased from 11% of patient-years before ARCALYST availability to 25% of patient- years in 2023, with ARCALYST use driving this observed shift
No RP-specific treatment | csDMARDs+ | Aspirin/NSAIDs/colchicine | Corticosteroids¥ | IL-1 pathway inhibition€ | ||||
A = anakinra; R = rilonacept; *Partial year prior to rilonacept availability; **Partial year after rilonacept availability April 1, 2021 - Dec 31, 2021
-
Not mutually exclusive, pts could contribute whole/fractions of PY to multiple medication classes (i.e., includes combination therapy & sequential therapy) € 24% of pts using anakinra went on to use rilonacept; of those, 9% used anakinra for ≤30 days (possibly as short-term bridge therapy)
¥ 16% of pts who utilized steroids did so as short-term bridge therapy (≤30 days) before transitioning to rilonacept + Includes azathioprine, methotrexate, hydroxychloroquine/Plaquenil®, sulfasalazine
£ Data censored at last check-in visit
Total absolute pt counts: rilonacept (n=89); anakinra (n=45), corticosteroids (n=85), aspirin/NSAIDs/colchicine (n=239), csDMARDs (n=12)
csDMARDs: conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs
In a sub-analysis of patients failing Aspirin/NSAIDs/Colchicine
(n=101), substantially more patients transitioned to ARCALYST, and
fewer patients transitioned to steroids over time

*Partial year 2021 prior to rilonacept availability on April 1, 2021; **Partial year 2021 after rilonacept availability after April 1, 2021
€ Of 41 pts starting rilonacept after aspirin/NSAIDs/colchicine, 4 pts utilized steroids as a short-term bridge prior to starting rilonacept (1 pt in 2021, 2 pts in 2022, 1 pt in 2023); 1 pt (in 2022) utilized anakinra as a short-term bridge prior to starting rilonacept
-
Of 16 pts starting anakinra after aspirin/NSAIDs/colchicine, 3 pts utilized steroids as a short-term bridge prior to starting anakinra (1 pt in 2021, 2 pts in 2022)

Key Executional Priorities to Drive Greater Patient and Physician Adoption
Identify appropriate patients and drive a proactive mindset with physicians and patients
Close the ARCALYST knowledge gap with physicians
Externally: U.S. thought leaders have introduced treatment paradigms for recurrent pericarditis that recommend IL-1antagonists, such as ARCALYST, be used ahead of corticosteroids1
Our Aim: Continue to drive the evolution of this treatment paradigm
Intended Future Use Among Target Healthcare Providers2
Advance the treatment paradigm

0% | 20% | 40% | 60% | 80% | 100% |
- Target physicians who have knowledge of ARCALYST overwhelmingly expect to increase their prescribing of ARCALYST in next 6 months
- The biggest barriers for physicians to prescribing ARCALYST are limited knowledge about the product and/or perception of the payer approval process
