Tigulixostat (IBI128) vs Febuxostat in Gout

Официальное название

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Double-Dummy, Multi-Center, Phase III Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Tigulixostat (IBI128) and Febuxostat in Chinese Subjects With Gout

Обзор

The primary purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of Tigulixostat (IBI128) versus Febuxostat on the proportion of Chinese adults with gout achieving a serum uric acid (sUA) level \< 360 μmol/L at Week 24. The study also evaluates safety, gout attacks, kidney function, inflammation, and quality of life over 52 weeks of treatment. Approximately 600 eligible participants will be randomized to receive either Tigulixostat or Febuxostat.

Вмешательства

• Препарат Febuxostat
  Participants in this group receive Febuxostat tablets together with dummy tablets matching Tigulixostat once daily during the 24-week core treatment period. Thereafter, participants switch to Tigulixostat tablets alone once daily during the 28-week extension treatment period.
• Препарат Tigulixostat
  Participants in this group receive Tigulixostat (IBI128) tablets together with dummy tablets matching Febuxostat once daily during the 24-week core treatment period, with dose escalation per protocol. Thereafter, participants continue Tigulixostat tablets alone once daily during the 28-week extension treatment period.

Критерии исключения

Participants who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded from the study:

• Acute gout attack within 4 weeks prior to screening or from screening to first dose.
• Use of uric acid-lowering drugs (e.g., allopurinol, febuxostat, probenecid, benzbromarone, dotinurad, recombinant uricase; excluding sodium bicarbonate) within 2 weeks before screening.
• Hyperuricemia caused by secondary gout (e.g., myeloproliferative disease, tumor, organ transplantation, enzyme deficiency, renal tubular dysfunction, lead poisoning, psoriasis, medications), excluding hyperuricemia due to renal insufficiency.
• Use of the following medications or therapies prior to screening or planned during the study:

(1)Prior urate oxidase treatment; (2)Concomitant medications affecting uric acid levels within 4 weeks before screening with dose adjustments (e.g., losartan, calcium channel blockers, diuretics, fenofibrate, atorvastatin, α-glucosidase inhibitors, insulin sensitizers, DPP4 inhibitors, SGLT2 inhibitors, metformin, GLP-1 receptor agonists, pyrazinamide, aspirin); (3)Long-term drugs dependent on xanthine oxidase metabolism (e.g., azathioprine, mercaptopurine); (4)Oral corticosteroids ≥ 10 consecutive days, or intramuscular/intravenous/intra-articular corticosteroid injection within 4 weeks before screening; (5)Biologics (e.g., TNF-α inhibitors, IL-1 inhibitors, IL-6 inhibitors) within 12 weeks before screening.
