19 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Medical teaching suggests allopurinol should not be initiated in the setting of an acute attack of gout, as rapid lowering of serum urate may exacerbate the attack. This study tests the hypothesis that there is no difference in patient reported daily pain or flair occurrences with early versus delayed institution of allopurinol during an acute gout attack.
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of dapansutrile (OLT1177®) tablets in subjects with an acute gout flare.
The purpose of this pilot study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of etanercept (Enbrel™; Amgen) for the treatment of an acute gout attack will be non-inferior to triamcinolone acetonide an FDA approved drug to treat acute gout attacks.
A Phase IIA, open-label, multicenter, active-controlled, parallel-group clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two doses of Bucillamine compared with low-dose Colchicine in the treatment of patients with acute gout flare.
This is a double blind placebo controlled study to determine whether starting allopurinol during a treated acute gout attack will have any effect on the duration of the attack.
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that canakinumab given upon acute gout flares relieves the signs and symptoms and prevents recurrence of gout flares in patients with frequent flares of gout for whom non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and/ or colchicine are contraindicated, not tolerated, or ineffective. The efficacy of canakinumab was compared to the corticosteroid triamcinolone acetonide. The purpose of the first 12 week extension study was to collect additional safety, tolerability and efficacy data in patients who have completed the core study CACZ885H2357. The purpose of the second one year open-label extension study was to confirm the long-term safety and tolerability of canakinumab in patients who had completed the first extension study.
This study aims to characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of colchicine after a regimen of 1.8 mg over two hours. A secondary goal is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of this regimen in healthy volunteers. To this end, all study subjects will be monitored for adverse effects throughout the entire study period.
This is an exploratory proof-of-concept study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of canakinumab (ACZ885) for inflammation and pain associated with acute gouty arthritis.
This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, dose-comparison to determine the efficacy and safety of a standard-dose of colchicine (4.8 mg) versus low-dose colchicine (1.8 mg) or placebo for acute gout flares.
The purpose of the study is to learn about a possible new medicine, apremilast, for treating acute gout and compare how it works to indomethacin, a medication that has been used to treat gout for over 50 years. In order to learn about apremilast, half the participants in this study will receive apremilast and half the participants in this study will receive indomethacin. This study will measure the severity and duration of acute gout attacks in research participants, as well as measures of quality of life and any side effects or adverse reactions to the medication. There will be three study visits: a screening/baseline visit on Day 1, a visit to evaluate response to treatment with study medication at Day 7, and a follow-up visit at Day 21.
This purpose of this clinical research was to determine the efficacy and safety of an experimental drug called Rilonacept in participants with an acute gout attack. Participants participated in this study for 30 days. Rilonacept alone was being compared with Indomethacin alone and the combination of Rilonacept plus Indomethacin in treating acute gout flares.
This 8-week study is designed to determine the target dose of canakinumab (ACZ885) for the management of acute flare in gout patients who are contraindicated to Non-Steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and/or colchicine. The efficacy of ACZ885 will be compared to the corticosteroid triamcinolone acetonide.
This is a 36 week open-label extension of the canakinumab pre-filled syringe study for safety and tolerability in patients who have frequent flares of acute gouty arthritis.
This study assessed the safety and efficacy of canakinumab pre-filled syringes in comparison to triamcinolone acetonide 40 mg and canakinumab lyophilizate in patients that have frequent flares of acute gouty arthritis.
The 24-week, dose-ranging, multi-center, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled core study investigated the prophylactic effect of canakinumab on the signs and symptoms of acute flares in chronic gout patients initiating allopurinol therapy. The core study was followed by a 24-week open-label, multicenter extension study to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of canakinumab in patients with gout who were given canakinumab at the time of gout flare.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how anakinra relieves pain for patients with acute gout that cannot take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and colchicine. The patients will be divided in different treatment groups to compare anakinra to the available drug triamcinolone.
This was an 18-month, multi-center, open-label, clinical extension study. Patients completing earlier second extension studies (CACZ885H2356E2 and CACZ885H2357E2) continued to be treated in this combined extension 3 study for any new gouty arthritis flare on demand with one subcutaneous (s.c.) injection of canakinumab 150 mg.
This study examines the implications of providing hospital-level care in rural homes.
The investigators propose a home hospital model of care that substitutes for treatment in an acute care hospital. Limited studies of the home hospital model have demonstrated that a sizeable proportion of acute care can be delivered in the home with equal quality and safety, reduced cost, and improved patient experience.
