New approach attempts to rescue failed gout treatment

NCT ID NCT06186219

Summary

This small safety study tested whether giving rituximab before standard gout treatment could help patients who previously stopped responding to pegloticase. The research involved just 2 adults with severe, tophaceous gout that wasn't controlled by other medications. Doctors wanted to see if rituximab pretreatment could help these patients respond again to the standard combination of methotrexate and pegloticase.
