New hope for tough gout cases: monthly infusion tested

NCT ID NCT04762498

Summary

This study tested if a gout medication called KRYSTEXXA, given as an infusion every 4 weeks along with a weekly pill (methotrexate), could effectively lower uric acid in people with severe, hard-to-treat gout. It involved 50 adults whose gout did not improve with standard treatments. The main goal was to find the right dose for future research and see if this less-frequent schedule could keep uric acid under control for at least 6 months.
