Trial Outcomes & Findings for Long Term Study of Canakinumab (ACZ885) in Patients With Gout (NCT NCT00927810)

NCT ID: NCT00927810

Last Updated: 2021-07-02

Results Overview

Adverse events (AEs) were defined as any unfavourable and unintended diagnosis, symptom, sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), syndrome or disease which either occurs during study, having been absent at baseline, or, if present at baseline, appears to worsen. Serious adverse events (SAEs) were defined as any untoward medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require (or prolong) hospitalisation, cause persistent or significant disability/incapacity, result in congenital anomalies or birth defects, or are other conditions which in judgement of investigators represent significant hazards

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From start of study up to study completion (up to 14 months)

Population: Safety Set 1 consisted of all participants from the core study who entered the extension study.

Adverse events (AEs) were defined as any unfavourable and unintended diagnosis, symptom, sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), syndrome or disease which either occurs during study, having been absent at baseline, or, if present at baseline, appears to worsen. Serious adverse events (SAEs) were defined as any untoward medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require (or prolong) hospitalisation, cause persistent or significant disability/incapacity, result in congenital anomalies or birth defects, or are other conditions which in judgement of investigators represent significant hazards

Tenderness was rated on a 0-3 point scale: 0="no pain", 1=patient states that "there is pain", 2=patient states "there is pain and winces", and 3=patient states "there is pain, winces and withdraws" on palpation or passive movement of the most affected joint. Swelling was rated on a 0-3 point scale: 0="no swelling", 1="palpable", 2="visible", and 3=bulging beyond the joint margins". Erythema was rated as present, absent, or not assessable. Assessments were performed at the flare and control visits.
