NCT ID: NCT01739660
Brief Summary: This is a Phase 1 single dose study conducted to evaluate the PK and PD of pegloticase administered to hemodialysis patients. A single dose of pegloticase will be administered intravenously to male or female hemodialysis patients (N = 12) starting 3 hour prior to dialysis. The study consists of a Screening Period, a Treatment Period, and Follow up Period.
Detailed Description: End stage renal disease (ESRD) patients that require hemodialysis typically undergo hemodialysis treatment 3 times per week. As such, medications can be dialyzed off, reducing their clinical effectiveness; this study is being conducted to understand how dialysis affects the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of pegloticase.
