Blockade of the interleukin-1 (IL-1) pathway has been used therapeutically in several inflammatory diseases including arthritis and cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS). These conditions frequently affect women of childbearing age and continued usage of IL-1 specific treatments throughout pregnancy has been reported. IL-1 is involved in pregnancy complications and its blockade could have therapeutic potential. We systematically reviewed all reported cases of IL-1 blockade in human pregnancy to assess safety and perinatal outcomes. We searched several databases to find reports of specific blockade of the IL-1 pathway at any stage of pregnancy, excluding broad spectrum or non-specific anti-inflammatory intervention. Our literature search generated 2439 references of which 22 studies included, following extensive review. From these, 88 different pregnancies were assessed. Most (64.8%) resulted in healthy term deliveries without any obstetrical/neonatal complications. Including pregnancy exposed to Anakinra or Canakinumab, 12 (15.0%) resulted in preterm birth and one stillbirth occurred. Regarding neonatal complications, 2 cases of renal agenesis (2.5%) were observed, and 6 infants were diagnosed with CAPS (7.5%). In conclusion, this systematic review describes that IL-1 blockade during pregnancy is not associated with increased adverse perinatal outcomes, considering that treated women all presented an inflammatory disease associated with elevated risk of pregnancy complications.
