Clinical Trial Summary

This trial studies the effect of pegloticase in reducing uric acid levels in patients with hyperuricemia (high blood levels of uric acid) caused by tumor lysis syndrome. Tumor lysis syndrome occurs when the breakdown products of cancer cells, such as uric acid, enter the blood stream. High levels of uric acid in blood may cause kidney damage and reduce kidney function. The goal of this trial is to learn if pegloticase may lower uric acid levels in blood when given to cancer patients with hyperuricemia caused by tumor lysis syndrome.


Clinical Trial Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To collect preliminary data on the effectiveness of a single dose of pegloticase in lowering serum uric acid levels to less than 6.0 mg/dl within 24 hours in patients with hyperuricemia in the setting of tumor lysis syndrome. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To assess the effect of pegloticase on renal function in patients with hyperuricemia in the setting of tumor lysis syndrome as measured by changes in serum creatinine/estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urine output. II. To estimate the rate of renal replacement therapy initiation for acute kidney injury secondary to tumor lysis syndrome among patients treated with pegloticase. OUTLINE: Patients receive pegloticase intravenously (IV) over 120 minutes. Patients whose serum uric acid does not drop below 6 mg/dL within 24 hours receive a second dose of pegloticase IV over 120 minutes on day 2. Patients whose serum uric acid does not drop below 6 mg/dL after two doses of pegloticase receive standard of care rasburicase IV once daily (QD) for 5 days. ;
