NCT ID: NCT00958438

Last Updated: 2017-04-28

Results Overview

Gout flare was defined as 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.

Participant Flow

The study was conducted at 57 study sites in European Union (EU) and rest of world (ROW) between 7 March 2009 and 17 December 2010. A total of 471 participants were screened in the study.

Out of 471 participants, 248 were randomized and treated in the study. Participants were randomized in 1:1:1 ratio to receive Placebo or Rilonacept 80 mg or Rilonacept 160 mg.

Population: FAS that included all randomized participants who received any study medication, and was based on the treatment allocated by IVRS at randomization (as randomized). Here, number of participants analyzed=participants with available data for this endpoint.

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.
