Clinical Trial Summary

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


Clinical Trial Description

All participants who meet eligibility criteria at Screening will begin once-weekly subcutaneous (SC) MTX Run-in period. Participants must be able to tolerate MTX at a minimum dose of 15 mg during the 6-week MTX Run-in Period to be eligible to participate in the Pegloticase + MTX Treatment Period. All participants who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria and complete the MTX Run-in Period will be considered enrolled participants. During the Pegloticase + MTX Treatment Period, pegloticase 8 mg will be administered IV every 2 weeks and MTX SC weekly. Two sequential cohorts of participants will be enrolled in this trial. Cohort 1 is targeted to enroll 10 participants who previously failed to maintain sUA response with pegloticase monotherapy and stopped pegloticase treatment without a history of pegloticase-related infusion reaction. If the safety assessment during Cohort 1 indicates that the pegloticase infusions are well tolerated, then the trial can begin enrolling Cohort 2 for 20 participants who failed to maintain sUA response with pegloticase monotherapy with or without a history of pegloticase-related clinically mild IRs. ;
