- NCT07089888RecruitingPhase 3
Dotinurad vs allopurinol for gout with lumps
This trial is testing a new gout medication, dotinurad, compared to the standard treatment allopurinol for people with tophaceous gout (gout that causes hard lumps). It aims to see if dotinurad is better at reducing uric acid and shrinking those lumps.
Southfield, MichiganAges 18–75 - NCT07089875RecruitingPhase 3
Testing dotinurad vs allopurinol for people with gout
This study compares a new gout medicine called dotinurad to the common medicine allopurinol. It is for people who have had gout for at least a year, have had at least 2 gout attacks in the last year, and are already taking a stable dose of allopurinol but still have high uric acid levels.
Southfield, MichiganAges 18–75 - NCT07388498RecruitingPhase 3
Study of pegloticase with methotrexate for uncontrolled gout
This trial tests a new way of giving pegloticase (a drug that breaks down uric acid) by injection under the skin, combined with methotrexate, to see if it works better for people with uncontrolled gout. It might help if you have painful flares that don't go away with usual treatments.
Saint Clair Shores, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07535034RecruitingPhase 2
Testing Dotinurad for Gout in People Who Can't Take Other Medications
This trial tests a new drug called dotinurad for gout patients whose standard medications either don't work or cause side effects. Dotinurad works differently by helping your body get rid of uric acid (the substance that causes gout attacks), and the study will see if it safely lowers uric acid levels.
Saint Clair Shores, MichiganAges 18–75 - NCT07280156RecruitingPhase 2
Study of PRX-115 for gout with or without methotrexate
This trial tests a new medicine, PRX-115, given through a vein, to see if it lowers uric acid levels in people with gout who haven't had success with standard treatments. Some participants will also take methotrexate, and the results are compared to a placebo (a dummy infusion).
Farmington Hills, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05658575RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Tablets to treat sudden gout flare pain
This trial studies dapansutrile tablets (OLT1177) to see how well they work for people in the first 4 days of an acute gout flare. It may help reduce pain and inflammation in the specific joint where your gout is flaring.

Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
