Trial Outcomes & Findings for PREventative Study Against URate-lowering Drug-induced Gout Exacerbations 1 (NCT NCT00829829)

NCT ID: NCT00829829

Last Updated: 2017-04-28

Results Overview

A gout flare was defined as participant reported acute articular pain typical of a gout attack that required treatment with an anti-inflammatory therapeutic: had at least 3 of the following 4 signs or symptoms: joint swelling, tenderness, redness, and pain and with at least 1 of the following: rapid onset of pain, decreased range of motion, joint warmth or other symptoms similar to a prior gout flare. Number of gout flares per participant was reported for this outcome measure. For drop-outs, only flares occurred before Day 112 were counted, regardless whether the flares occurred during the treatment period or not.

Participant Flow

The study was conducted at 49 study sites in Unites States (US) and 15 study sites in Canada between 5 March 2009 and 18 May 2010. A total of 468 participants were screened in the study.

Out of 468 participants, 241 were randomized and 240 treated in the study. Participants were randomized in 1:1:1 ratio to receive either Placebo or Rilonacept 80 mg or Rilonacept 160 mg.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 1 to Day 112 (Week 16)

Population: Full analysis set (FAS) that included all randomized participants who received any study medication and was based on the treatment allocated by IIVRS at randomization (as randomized).

Participants were asked to complete a telephone diary by calling the IVRS daily beginning at the baseline visit (Day 1) through the follow-up visit (Day 141) and reported their general well-being, gout symptoms, and weekly study drug administrations. At the onset of pain from a gout flare, participants were to answer additional diary questions regarding their gout flare and had to continue daily flare assessments until they reported the flare had ended. If a flare occurred just prior to the follow-up visit (Day 141), participants were to continue completing the daily diary until the flare resolved. Gout flare pain was assessed on a scale from 0 to 10 (with 0=no pain and 10=severe pain) within the past 24 hours.
