E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To compare the percent reduction from baseline in serum urate (sUA) levels following 4 weeks of continuous treatment of RDEA594 in combination with allopurinol to allopurinol alone in subjects with documented inadequate hypouricemic response with standard doses of allopurinol. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
•To evaluate the proportion of subjects whose sUA levels are < 6.0 mg/dL, <5.0 mg/dL and <4.0 mg/dL at each study visit by treatment group in all subjects and in subjects who have an sUA greater than or equal to 6 mg/dL at the baseline visit.
•To evaluate the absolute and percent reduction from baseline in sUA levels at each visit.
•To evaluate the percentage change in 24-hour urine urate level (excretion) from baseline to Day 28.
•To evaluate the incidence of gout flares.
•To evaluate the safety and tolerability of RDEA594 in combination with allopurinol in subjects with gout.
•To compare the multiple-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of allopurinol and oxypurinol in the absence versus presence of RDEA594 co-administration.
•To evaluate the proportion of subjects whose sUA level decreases to or is maintained at <6.0 mg/dL and <5.0 mg/dL in the double-blind and Open-Label Extension Periods. |
