The purpose of this Phase I study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ALLN-346 in in normal healthy volunteers, in an ascending dose design. ALLN-346 is an (oral) enzyme that specifically degrades urate in the intestinal tract.
Gout is a chronic disease caused by the deposit of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals in body tissues secondary to hyperuricemia. Patients with gout suffer severe attacks of acute joint pain. As the disease progresses, the joint pain becomes chronic and associated with disabling and deformative manifestations called tophi. Gout is strongly associated with various comorbidities including cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney failure. Gout is a very common disease, affecting 0.9% of the adult population in France and nearly 4% of the North-American population. Data from New Zealand show a particularly high prevalence of gout among Polynesians (minority populations in New Zealand and other islands of the South Pacific) that would be explained by genetic susceptibility and frequently intertwined with metabolic diseases. Recent findings obtained from the Polynesian population in New Caledonia disclose high prevalence figures close to 7%, a level expected to be confirmed by an epidemiology study that will be conducted in parallel with the present study and designed to determine the precise prevalence of gout in French Polynesia and the most frequently associated genetic variants.
To confirm the safety and efficacy (dose response and optimal dose according to the serum uric acid response rate) of URC102 when orally-administered to patients with gout and gout-related hyperuricemia in comparison with placebo. Therapeutic dose-finding study, Placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, phase 2 clinical trial.
Non-adherence to evidence-based prescription medications results in preventable morbidity and mortality for middle-aged and older adults. Taking medications intended for daily use, like those to prevent or treat chronic conditions, is a repetitive action that has great similarity with other behaviors that must be performed consistently, such as regular exercise, healthy eating, and hand washing. In these cases, people who act consistently do so out of habit. The "repetition-cue-reward" model proposes that habit formation has three central components: behavioral repetition, associated context cues, and rewards. This model has obvious applicability to the daily repetitive activity of medication-taking but has not been tested for this behavior nor adapted as an intervention for patients in real-world care settings. The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of using the repetition-cue-reward model of healthy habit formation to improve medication adherence in patients with arthritis and other rheumatic diseases.
This is a Phase 4, multicenter, open-label trial of pegloticase with methotrexate (MTX) in adult participants with uncontrolled gout who were previously treated with pegloticase without a concomitant immunomodulator and stopped pegloticase due to failure to maintain serum uric acid (sUA) response and/or a clinically mild infusion reaction (IR). Approximately 30 participants will be enrolled. Pegloticase + MTX will be administered for approximately 24 weeks, with an optional extension up to 48 weeks. The trial design will include 5 distinct components: 1. Screening Period, lasting up to 42 days; 2. 6-week MTX Tolerability Assessment Period (hereafter referred to as the MTX Run-in Period); 3. 24-week Pegloticase + MTX Treatment Period, which will include a Week 24/End of Trial/Early Termination Visit (subjects that end MTX and pegloticase treatment prior to the Week 24 will remain on trial for follow up until the Week 24 visit) 4. Optional Pegloticase + MTX Extension Period up to 24 weeks 5. 30-Day Post Treatment Follow -up
This trial is to assess efficacy, safety, blood levels and bodily effects of up to 2 dose levels of intravenous (IV) pegloticase (KRYSTEXXA) infusions at every 4 week intervals (Q4 Weeks) for up to 6 months (Day 1 to 24 weeks with an optional 24 - 48 weeks treatment duration) when given in combination with weekly oral doses of methotrexate (MTX). The goal is to identify an appropriate dose to be administered every 4 weeks to be used for future clinical trials for patients with chronic gout that does not adequately respond to conventional therapy.
This is a Phase 2a, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics study of 6 different dose regimens of ABP-671 compared with placebo. The study will consist of three sequential groups with escalating total daily ABP-671 doses. Each group is further divided into two dose cohorts with either QD or BID dosing. Each dose group will have 3 stages following screening: Run-in, Dose Evaluation, and Follow-up.
This is one of two replicate randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel arm trials to determine the safety and efficacy of two different dose levels of SEL-212 compared to placebo. 112 and 153 patients, stratified as to the presence or absence of tophi, were randomized in a 1:1:1 allocation ratio prior to Baseline to receive treatment with one of two dose levels of SEL-212 or placebo every 28 days for approximately 6 months in each trial respectively (SEL-212/301 and SEL-212/302). Analysis of primary and key efficacy were performed at Day 28 of Treatment Period 6. Safety was monitored throughout the study.
A web-based descriptive survey was conducted among doctors with regular interaction with gout patients. The questionnaire comprised of 38 multiple choice questions; 9 questions for demographic data, 8, 11 and 10 questions each for knowledge, attitude and practice, respectively. Simple descriptive statistics were used to describe the correct responses.
