Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of recombinant anti-IL-1β humanized monoclonal antibody injection in Chinese participants with acute gout.

Detailed Description

Study SSGJ-613-AG-III-01 is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled, parallel-group study examining the effect of recombinant anti-IL-1β humanized monoclonal antibody injection versus compound betamethasone injection in Chinese adult patients with frequent flares of acute gouty arthritis who are contraindicated, intolerant, or lack efficacy to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and/or colchicine. The entire treatment period is 48 weeks, consisting of a double-blind treatment period of 24 weeks and an open treatment period of 24 weeks.

Randomized patients will receive one s.c. injection of SSGJ-613 and placebo matching compound betamethasone injection (0.9% sodium chloride) intramuscularly (i.m.) once, on Day 1. The i.m. injection is recommended to be administered deeply into the gluteal muscle.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The Change in Pain Intensity in the Target Joint From Baseline to 72 Hours Post Dose as Measured on a 0-100 mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS)72 hours post-dose

The change in pain intensity from baseline to 72 hours post dose as measured on a 0-100 mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS): 0= no pain and 100= severe pain. Change from baseline = (post-baseline measurement - baseline).

Time to First New Flare12 weeks

The Kaplan Meier method was used to estimate the median time and 95% CI of the first new flares within 12 weeks after the first administration of each group, as well as the event incidence and 95% CI at 12 weeks.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants Taking Rescue Medication After Study Drug Administration and Categories and Dosages of Rescue Medication12 weeks, 24 weeks, 48 weeks
Likert scores for target joint pain7 days, 12 weeks, 24 weeks

Patients scored their pain intensity on a 5-point Likert scale (none, mild, moderate, severe, extreme).

Number of new gout flares12 weeks, 24 weeks, 48 weeks
The Change in Pain Intensity in the Target Joint From Baseline to 6, 24, 48 Hours and 7 Days Post Dose as Measured on a 0-100 mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS)At 6, 24, 48 hours and 7 Days post-dose

The change in pain intensity from baseline to 6, 12, 48 hours and 7 days post dose as measured on a 0-100 mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS): 0= no pain and 100= severe pain. Change from baseline = (post-baseline measurement - baseline).

The Time to At Least 50% Reduction of Baseline Pain Intensity in the Target Joint after study drug administrationUp to 48 weeks

The time to at least 50% reduction in Pain intensity from baseline as measured by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for each treatment group, is estimated using the Kaplan Meier method. Participants scored their pain intensity in the target joint on a 0-100 mm VAS, ranging from no pain (0) to unbearable pain (100).

The Time to Complete Pain Remission of Baseline Pain Intensity in the Target Joint after study drug administrationUp to 48 weeks

The time to complete pain remission in Pain intensity from baseline as measured by a 5-point Likert scale for each treatment group, is estimated using the Kaplan Meier method. Participants scored their pain intensity in the target joint on a 5-point Likert scale: None, mild, moderate, severe, extremely severe.

Percentage of Participants with Complete Pain Remission of the Target Joint within 12 weeks after study drug administration12 weeks

Participants scored their pain intensity in the target joint on a 5-point Likert scale: None, mild, moderate, severe, extremely severe.

Time to first use of Rescue MedicationWithin 7 days after the first administration, within 7 days after the last acute attack of gout during the double blind treatment period

The Kaplan Meier method was used to estimate the median time and 95% CI of the first use of Rescue Medication.

Time to First New Flare24 weeks, 48 weeks

The Kaplan Meier method was used to estimate the median time and 95% CI of the first new flares after the first administration of each group, as well as the event incidence and 95% CI.

Percentage of Participants with at least 1 new gout flare12 weeks, 24 weeks, 48 weeks
