What was measured
The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is an instrument used to measure a person's subjective quantitative evaluation of an item such as pain intensity. The VAS contains a continuous line between two end points whereby the respondent places a mark on the line to indicate his or her response. In this study, patients scored their pain intensity in the most affected joint of the gout flare on a 0 100 mm VAS. The scale ranged from 0 (no pain) to 100 (unbearable pain). The scores were measured to the nearest millimeter from the left. Missing pain intensity data at 72 hours was imputed using the Last-Observation-Carried-Forward (LOCF) method.
Analysis population: Full Analysis Set: The Full Analysis Set (FAS) consisted of all patients as randomized that had at least one dose of study drug. Following the intent-to-treat principle, patients were analyzed according to the treatment they were assigned to at randomization.
Groups in this outcome
Canakinumab, Pre-filled Syringes (PFS)
Patients on this arm received 150 mg subcutaneously (s.c.) at randomization and upon new flare. The doses were provided as pre-filled syringes. The patients were given 3 injections: two placebo and one active drug.
Canakinumab, Lyophilizate (LYO)
The patients on this arm received 150 mg s.c. at randomization and upon new flare. The doses were provided as lyophilized power and had to be reconstituted with water for injection before application. The patients were given 3 injections: two placebo and one active drug.
Triamcinolone Acetonide
The patients on this arm received 40 mg intramuscular (i.m.) at randomization and upon new flare. The patients were given 3 injections: two placebo and one active drug.
