What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Oxypurinol Renal Clearance

    Renal clearance as defined by amount excreted in 24 hours/AUC from 0-24 hours

    Measured: 24 hours (Urine collected 0-4 hrs,4-8 hrs,8-10 hrs,10-24 hrs post-dose)

  2. Percent Change Uric Acid

    Maximum percent change in uric acid after a single dose of allopurinol

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Oxypurinol AUC

    Area under the concentration time curve from 0-24 hours following a single dose of allopurinol (i.e. Day 1 of both protocols)

    Measured: 24 hours (Collections at 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 24 hours post-dose)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Allopurinol in people with Chronic Gout and Hyperuricemia, run by University of California, San Francisco at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Jun 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Oxypurinol Renal Clearance (time frame: 24 hours (Urine collected 0-4 hrs,4-8 hrs,8-10 hrs,10-24 hrs post-dose)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jun 2020.
