Study Summary

The overall objective of the study is to assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of the concomitant use of pegloticase with methotrexate (MTX) to enhance the response rate seen with pegloticase alone in adults with uncontrolled gout.

Primary Outcome

Serum uric acid (sUA \< 6 mg/dL) responders are defined as participants achieving and maintaining sUA \< 6 mg/dL for at least 80% of the time during Month 6 (Weeks 20, 22, and 24). Month 6 includes pre-infusion and post-infusion sUA assessments at Week 20, pre-infusion and post-infusion sUA assessments at Week 22, pre-infusion assessments at Week 24, and unscheduled sUA assessments between Week 20 and Week 24.
