Other trials that look related to this one.
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.
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.
This study compares two different treatment goals for a blood level called urate in people with gout. The goal is to see which approach lowers gout flares better while helping people feel better.
This study tests two doses of a medicine called Purified Cortrophin Gel for people having a gout flare that started in the last 5 days. It might be an option if other treatments haven't worked or aren't safe for you.
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.
This trial tests whether extra diet advice helps people with gout who are already taking urate-lowering medicine. It might help them manage their condition better.
