Participant Flow

Subjects were enrolled at 23 investigational sites in the United States from 21 March 2001 to 29 December 2006

Subjects were to have completed 4 weeks of double-blind dosing in Study TMX-00-004 (NCT00174967) before enrollment in once daily (QD) treatment groups. Dose titrations will occur in order to obtain and maintain clinically acceptable serum urate levels.
