Tests treatment safety and results for Acute Gouty Arthritis
Official title A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy,Safety,Tolerability,Pharmacokinetics,and Immunogenicty of Plonmarlimab in Subjects With Acute Gouty Arthritis
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07453004
What this study is testing
What is Plonmarlimab?
Plonmarlimab is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for acute gouty arthritis.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a multi center,randomized,double-blind,double-dummy,active-controlled study,and planned enrollment of 120-170 subjects,an interim analysis will be conducted after first 60 subjects complete the 72 -hour pain Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) assessment following their initial dose.Based on the analysis result,the sample size may be adjusted, and 1or 2 group(s)of the investigational drug will be selected to continue enrollment along with the active comparator group.The goal is to evaluate the efficacy of plonmarlimab in subjects with acute gouty arthristis.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
