In case of prior MTX discontinuation, it must be performed at least 4 weeks before Day 0 7. Patient's ability and willingness, in the reasonable opinion of the investigator, to attend the clinical center for all scheduled visits, perform study procedures, and comply with protocol requirements, including consent to receive subcutaneous injections by qualified personnel 8. Women of childbearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant (excluding women who are post-menopausal, defined retrospectively as 12 months of natural amenorrhea with appropriate clinical status, e.g., age-appropriate), must agree to use highly effective methods of contraception throughout the study, starting from the signing of the ICF until at least 8 weeks after the last dose of study treatment; and must have a negative pregnancy test (serum human chorionic gonadotropin, hCG) 9. Sexually active male participants must agree to use highly effective methods of contraception throughout the study, starting from the signing of the ICF until at least 8 weeks after the last dose of study treatment Exclusion Criteria: 1. Hypersensitivity to the active and/or inactive ingredients of the investigational product 2. Prior use of the following medications: * Rilonacept - less than 6 weeks prior to Day 0 * Canakinumab - less than 20 weeks prior to Day 0 * Anakinra - less than 1 week prior to Day 0 * TNF-alpha inhibitors: etanercept less than 2 weeks, adalimumab, certolizumab, or golimumab less than 10 weeks prior to Day 0 * IL-6 inhibitors: olokizumab - less than 20 weeks, tocilizumab - less than 16 weeks, or sarilumab less than 8 weeks prior to Day 0 * Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors - less than 1 week prior to Day 0 * Immunosuppressants (azathioprine less than 3 days, cyclosporine less than 1 week, mycophenolate mofetil less than 1 week, tacrolimus less than 10 days, mercaptopurine less than 2 days, etc., except for methotrexate) - less than 5 half-lives prior to Day 0 * Leflunomide - less than 10 weeks prior to Day 0 * Corticosteroid pulse therapy (e.g., intravenous methylprednisolone 250-1000 mg/day or equivalent dose of dexamethasone for 3 days) - less than 4 weeks (from the completion of pulse therapy) prior to Day 0 * Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) - less than 4 weeks prior to Day 0 * Other biologic drug with immunosuppressive effects - less than 5 half-lives prior to Day 0 3. Use of live-attenuated vaccines within less than 3 months prior to Day 0 (start of the treatment period in the study) and/or anticipated need for such vaccination within 3 months after completion of the investigational therapy. Live-attenuated vaccines include vaccines against measles, rubella, mumps, varicella, rotavirus, influenza (intranasal), yellow fever, poliomyelitis (oral polio vaccine), as well as vaccines against tuberculosis (BCG), typhoid (oral typhoid vaccine), and epidemic typhus. Immunocompetent household members of the patient must refrain from receiving oral polio vaccine during the patient's participation in the study 4. Presence of conditions or signs that, in the investigator's opinion, indicate impaired immune response and/or significantly increase the risk associated with immunomodulatory therapy, including but not limited to: * Active bacterial, fungal, viral, or protozoal infection at the start of the screening period * Opportunistic infections and/or Kaposi's sarcoma at the start of screening * Chronic bacterial, fungal, or viral infection requiring systemic parenteral therapy at the start of screening * HIV infection, viral hepatitis B or C, or syphilis (patients with hepatitis B and/or C who have received antiviral therapy and have had undetectable viral load for at least 6 months may be eligible, subject to confirmation by an appropriate specialist) 5. History of active tuberculosis (TB); suspected or confirmed active tuberculosis at present; or signs of active tuberculosis, including chest computed tomography (CT) or chest X-ray findings consistent with pulmonary tuberculosis during screening; or presence of risk factors for tuberculosis, including but not limited to: * Living conditions associated with increased risk of exposure (e.g., correctional facilities, homeless shelters) within 1 year prior to randomization * Healthcare workers with unprotected exposure to patients at high risk of TB or with TB within 1 year prior to randomization * Close contact (i.e., prolonged cohabitation for days or weeks, not minutes or hours) with a person with active tuberculosis within 1 year prior to randomization 6. History of latent TB without adequate treatment, regardless of screening QuantiFERON-TB/T-SPOT.TB results, or a positive QuantiFERON-TB/T-SPOT.TB result at screening. Such patients may be re-screened and enrolled if all of the following are met: * Active TB is ruled out by a certified TB specialist * The patient has completed at least 30 days of prophylactic anti-TB therapy for LTBI prior to screening, using country-recommended regimens * The patient agrees to complete the full course of LTBI treatment 7. Any other significant comorbidities (cardiovascular, neurological, endocrine, renal, gastrointestinal, hepatic, coagulation disorders, other systemic rheumatic diseases, psychiatric disorders, etc.) that, in the investigator's judgment, may adversely affect participation, patient safety, or study results 8. History of organ transplantation or need for transplantation at screening 9.

MAS criteria includes persistent fever, splenomegaly, elevated or rising serum ferritin levels, cytopenia, abnormal liver function tests, intravascular activation of coagulation, and elevated or rising serum triglyceride levels 16. Diagnosis of MAS within 2 months prior to Day 0 17. Prior participation in this clinical study, provided the patient received at least one dose of the investigational product
