PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 42 days after initial dose

Population: All patients receiving study drug

The primary outcome is the proportion of subjects who become refractory to IVIG. Subjects requiring 1 dose of IVIG are classified as responders and subjects requiring more than 1 dose are classified as IVIG refractory.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 42 days after initial dose

Population: All patients receiving study drug with coronary measures improved

The primary echocardiographic outcome will be the proportion of subjects with improvement defined as (20% change in coronary artery) from the worst findings during the acute study period (scheduled visits from admission to visit 4, including any unscheduled visits) to the primary study outcome time-point at visit 5 (visit 5). This calculation will be based on changes in absolute values and not z-scores as initially planned. Groups will be compared using a logistic model including a binary term for age \< versus \> 1 year. Two aspects of the echo findings will be considered: * Maximum aneurysm size and * Maximum measurements for left main coronary artery (LMCA), left anterior descending artery (LAD) and right coronary artery (RCA). * Change in diameter of each coronary artery will be determined at standard measurement location or aneurysm with the latter taking precedent.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: 6 weeks

Population: Includes patients categorized by baseline coronary artery dilation (echocardiography) with stable or improved coronary artery z score

Overall change in coronary z score over time determined using General Estimating Equation in patients from baseline within patients. No change or improved defined by 20% change in z score. A Z score normalized for body surface area represents how much larger (or smaller) a measured coronary artery internal diameter by echocardiography is compared to the average coronary artery diameter for a child of the same size (body surface area includes both height and weight). There is no minimum or maximum value. Z score above 2.0 is at least 2 standard deviations above mean for population and is considered abnormal. A decrease in z score is favorable.
