Change From Baseline in Serum Interleukin-6 (IL-6) Levels
IL-6 is a cytokine associated with disease activity in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) including the polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pJIA) subset. It is found in high levels in the synovial fluid and is associated with indicators of inflammatory activity.
