Efficacy of anakinra in gouty arthritis: a retrospective study of 40 cases

Abstract: IntroductionGout is a common arthritis that occurs particularly in patients who frequently have associated comorbidities that limit the use of conventional therapies. The main mechanism of crystal-induced inflammation is interleukin-1 production by activation of the inflammasome. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerance of anakinra in gouty patients.MethodsWe conducted a multicenter retrospective review of patients receiving anakinra for gouty arthritis. We reviewed the response to treatment, adverse ev… Show more

Anakinra has shown benefit in the treatment of patients with acute and chronic gouty arthritis in pilot studies, retrospective reviews, and case reports [7].…”

“…To date, 3 anti−IL-1 biologic agents have been evaluated in patients with gouty arthritis, either in small, open-label, retrospective studies, such as the IL-1 receptor antagonist anakinra [7,35] or in randomized, controlled trials, such as the IL-1 trap rilonacept [5,36] and the anti−IL-1β monoclonal antibody canakinumab [6]. Today, only canakinumab is approved in the European Union for the treatment of adult patients with frequent gouty arthritis attacks (at least 3 in the previous 12 months) in whom NSAIDs and colchicine are contraindicated, are not tolerated, or do not provide an adequate response, and in whom repeated courses of corticosteroids are not appropriate.…”
