A Double-blind, Randomized Controlled Trial to Investigate the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of Pegloticase Administration Via Subcutaneous and Intravenous Routes Both With Methotrexate in Participants With Uncontrolled Gout
A Phase 3, Multicenter, Double-blind, Randomized Controlled Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Pegloticase Administered by Subcutaneous Injection Compared With Pegloticase Administered by Intravenous Injection, Both Administered Concurrently With Methotrexate Weekly, in Participants With Uncontrolled Gout
About This Trial
