I believe all three gout treatment studies relate to nationwide trials for febuxostat prior to final FDA approval. If you are not in the states recently announced, there may still be related trials open in your area.

If you take part in these clinical trials, or any other gout treatment trials, be sure to share your experience here, preferably in the gout forum.
