Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TA-650 in comparison with a control drug Polyethylene Glycol-treated Human Immunoglobulin (VGIH) in patients with Kawasaki disease refractory to initial therapy with Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG). The pharmacokinetics of TA-650 is also examined.
