Filter by:The primary purpose of this study is to observe patients being treated with pegloticase in a standard healthcare setting in order to evaluate the frequency and severity of infusion reactions, anaphylaxis and immune complex related events. Additionally, serious adverse events associated with pegloticase therapy will be identified.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of rilonacept for patients with gout who are initiating allopurinol.
We will study whether the health care costs and health utilities differ in patients with gout and those without gout and whether they differ between those with more severe versus less severe gout
The purpose of this study is to determine whether arhalofenate is safe and effective when dosed in combination with febuxostat in lowering serum uric acid in patients with gout.
To evaluate the overall safety and tolerability of ulodesine when combined with allopurinol in subjects with moderate renal insufficiency.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of MBX-102 in combination with allopurinol compared to allopurinol alone when administered orally once a day for four weeks to gout patients with an inadequate hypouricemic response to allopurinol alone.
This is a study of allopurinol in gout patients with hyperuricemia that will evaluate the safety and serum urate (sUA) lowering capability of allopurinol as a urate lowering therapy (ULT) for up to six months. Allopurinol will be dosed according to the local product label, at the discretion of the Investigator, to achieve an optimal, medically appropriate dose for each patient.
Green tea has been extensively investigated for several potential health benefits. Previous studies have suggested that green tea may lower serum uric acid level in human. The purpose of this study is to investigate uric-lowering properties of green tea in healthy individuals.
Diabetes and heart associations continue to discourage high intakes of dietary fructose, a constituent part of the sucrose molecule that is found in fruits and vegetables as a natural sugar and in some processed foods and beverages as an added sweetener. The concern relates to its ability to increase certain blood fats and cholesterol, which increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. The evidence for an adverse effect of fructose on these risk factors, however, is inconclusive. To improve the evidence on which nutrition recommendations for fructose are based, the investigators therefore propose to study the effect of fructose on blood fats, cholesterol, sugars, blood pressure, and body weight, by undertaking a systematic synthesis of the data taken from all available clinical studies in humans. This technique has the strength of allowing all of the available data to be pooled together and differences to be explored in groups of different study participants (healthy humans of different sex, weight, and age and in those with diseases which predispose to disturbances in metabolism, such as diabetes) with dietary fructose in different forms, doses, and with differing durations of exposure. The findings generated by this proposed knowledge synthesis will help improve the health of consumers through informing recommendations for the general public, as well as those at risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
This will be a dose block-randomized, double-blind, active and placebo controlled, single and multiple dosing, dose-escalation study to evaluate tolerability, safety and pharmacokinetic / pharmacodynamic characteristics. Adverse events, physical examinations, vital signs, ECG and laboratory tests will be conducted for safety/tolerability evaluation and serial blood samples and urine collections for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic evaluations will be conducted at specified time points.
