Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study of Pegloticase in Participants With Uncontrolled Gout Who Have Had a Kidney Transplant (NCT NCT04087720)

NCT ID: NCT04087720

Last Updated: 2024-06-26

Results Overview

sUA \< 6 mg/dL responders are defined as participants achieving and maintaining sUA \< 6 mg/dL for at least 80% of the time during Month 6, which includes pre-infusion and post-infusion results at Week 20, results at Week 21, pre-infusion and post-infusion results at Week 22, results at Week 23, results at Week 24, and unscheduled assessments of sUA collected between Week 20 and Week 24. Two-sided Exact Clopper-Pearson confidence interval is used for the calculation of the 95% confidence interval.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Month 6 (Weeks 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

Population: Intent-to-treat (ITT) population: participants who received at least 1 dose of pegloticase. Participants in the ITT population with no lapse or cessation in treatment due to COVID-19 prior to the analysis time-point.

sUA \< 6 mg/dL responders are defined as participants achieving and maintaining sUA \< 6 mg/dL for at least 80% of the time during Month 6, which includes pre-infusion and post-infusion results at Week 20, results at Week 21, pre-infusion and post-infusion results at Week 22, results at Week 23, results at Week 24, and unscheduled assessments of sUA collected between Week 20 and Week 24. Two-sided Exact Clopper-Pearson confidence interval is used for the calculation of the 95% confidence interval.

Population: ITT population: participants who received at least 1 dose of pegloticase. Participants in the ITT population with no lapse or cessation in treatment due to COVID-19 prior to the analysis time-point.

sUA \< 5 mg/dL responders are defined as participants achieving and maintaining sUA \<5 mg/dL for at least 80% of the time during Month 6, which includes pre-infusion and post-infusion results at Week 20, results at Week 21, pre-infusion and post-infusion results at Week 22, results at Week 23, results at Week 24, and unscheduled assessments of sUA collected between Week 20 and Week 24.

Population: ITT population: participants who received at least 1 dose of pegloticase. Participants with an assessment at given time point.

The HAQ-Pain score consists of a doubly anchored, horizontal VAS 15 cm in length, and rates a participant's pain over the past week from 0 to 100 with 0 = no pain and 100 = severe pain. Baseline is defined as the last measurement taken prior to the first infusion of pegloticase. The 95% confidence interval is a two-sided normal theory-based 95% confidence interval.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Weeks 6, 14, 20, 24

Population: ITT population: participants who received at least 1 dose of pegloticase. Participants with an assessment at given time point.

The HAQ-DI is a self-reported assessment of how a participant's illness affects their ability to function in their daily life over the past week. The HAQ-DI for a participant is calculated as the mean of the following 8 category scores: Dressing and Grooming, Arising, Eating, Walking, Hygiene, Reach, Grip, and Activities. The HAQ-DI ranges from 0 to 3 with higher values indicating higher disability. Baseline is defined as the last measurement taken prior to the first infusion of pegloticase. The 95% confidence interval is a two-sided normal theory-based 95% confidence interval.
