Rationale and design of the randomized evaluation of an Ambulatory Care Pharmacist-Led Intervention to Optimize Urate Lowering Pathways (RAmP-UP) Study

Despite the availability of effective therapies, most gout patients achieve suboptimal treatment outcomes. Current best practices suggest gradual dose-escalation of urate lowering therapy and serial serum urate (sUA) measurement to achieve sUA

Current best practices suggest gradual dose-escalation of urate lowering therapy and serial serum urate (sUA) measurement to achieve sUA&lt;6.0mg/dl. However, this strategy is not routinely used. Here we present the study design rationale and development for a pharmacist-led intervention to promote sUA goal attainment. To overcome barriers in achieving optimal outcomes, we planned and implemented the Randomized Evaluation of an Ambulatory Care Pharmacist-Led Intervention to Optimize Urate Lowering Pathways (RAmP-UP) study. This is a large pragmatic cluster-randomized trial designed to assess a highly automated, pharmacist-led intervention to optimize allopurinol treatment in gout. Ambulatory clinics (n=101) from a large health system were randomized to deliver either the pharmacist-led intervention or usual care to gout patients over the age of 18years newly initiating allopurinol. All participants received educational materials and could opt-out of the study. For intervention sites, pharmacists conducted outreach primarily via an automated telephone interactive voice recognition system. The outreach, guided by a gout care algorithm developed for this study, systematically promoted adherence assessment, facilitated sUA testing, provided education, and adjusted allopurinol dosing. The primary study outcomes are achievement of sUA&lt;6.0mg/dl and treatment adherence determined after one year. With follow-up ongoing, study results will be reported subsequently. Ambulatory care pharmacists and automated calling technology represent potentially important, underutilized resources for improving health outcomes for gout patients.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1551-7144</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1559-2030</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/j.cct.2016.07.019</identifier><identifier>PMID: 27449546</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States: Elsevier Inc</publisher><subject>Allopurinol ; Allopurinol - therapeutic use ; Ambulatory Care - organization &amp; administration ; Automation ; Dose titration ; Gout ; Gout - blood ; Gout - drug therapy ; Gout Suppressants - therapeutic use ; Humans ; Patient Education as Topic ; Pharmacists - organization &amp; administration ; Randomized trial ; Research Design ; Serum urate ; Telephone ; Uric Acid - blood</subject><ispartof>Contemporary clinical trials, 2016-09, Vol.50, p.106-115</ispartof><rights>2016 Elsevier Inc.</rights><rights>Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Inc.
