| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Proportion of Patients Achieving Complete Clinical Response in the Period From 7 Days to 8 Weeks After the First Dose | Complete clinical response is defined as a Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) score of ≤ 5, with none of 5 items (urticaria, fatigue, fever and chills, myalgia, and arthralgia and bone pain) rated as > 1. The PGA is a tool designed to evaluate each of 5 items (urticaria, fatigue, fever/chills, myalgia, and arthralgia/bone pain), which are clinical symptoms observed in patients with Schnitzler's syndrome, on a 5-point scale of 0 (no), 1 (minimal), 2 (mild), 3 (moderate), and 4 (severe) based on the physician's clinical examination to calculate the total score. | Day 8 to Week 8 |
| Proportion of Patients Achieving Partial or Complete Clinical Response at all Time Points From 7 Days After the First Dose to 48 Weeks After the First Dose | Complete clinical response is defined as a PGA score of ≤ 5, with none of 5 items (urticaria, fatigue, fever and chills, myalgia, and arthralgia and bone pain) rated as > 1. Partial clinical response is defined as a PGA score of ≥ 6, with a decrease in PGA of ≥ 30% from baseline, or PGA score of ≤ 5, with any of 5 items (urticaria, fatigue, fever and chills, myalgia, and arthralgia and bone pain) rated as > 1. The PGA is a tool designed to evaluate each of 5 items (urticaria, fatigue, fever/chills, myalgia, and arthralgia/bone pain), which are clinical symptoms observed in patients with Schnitzler's syndrome, on a 5-point scale of 0 (no), 1 (minimal), 2 (mild), 3 (moderate), and 4 (severe) based on the physician's clinical examination to calculate the total score. | Day 8, Weeks 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, and at treatment discontinuation, up to and including Week 48 |
| Rate of Each Clinical Response | The proportion of patients who achieve a clinical response:

Inclusion criteria
1. Patients diagnosed with Schnitzler's syndrome using canakinumab for the first time for the indication of Schnitzler's syndrome as described in the package insert.
Patients starting treatment with canakinumab before conclusion of the contract for this study will also be included in the study so that all patients diagnosed with Schnitzler's syndrome who received canakinumab will be registered in this study.
Exclusion criteria
Patients previously treated with canakinumab in Study IACT21071.
All patients treated with canakinumab for the following indications:
Indications: Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome, Muckle-Wells syndrome, neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease), hyper immunoglobulin D (IgD) syndrome (mevalonate kinase deficiency), tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated periodic syndrome, familial mediterranean fever, systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis, adult-onset Still's disease.
Patients receiving canakinumab for off-label use under the Clinical Trials Act or GCP (e.g., patient-proposed healthcare services, investigator-initiated clinical trial).
