Verinurad combined with febuxostat in Japanese adults with gout or asymptomatic hyperuricaemia: a phase 2a, open-label study

Abstract: ObjectivesVerinurad (RDEA3170) is a high-affinity inhibitor of the URAT1 transporter in clinical development for treating gout and asymptomatic hyperuricaemia. The aim of this Phase 2a, randomized, open-label study was to investigate the multiple-dose pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics and safety of oral verinurad combined with febuxostat vs febuxostat alone and verinurad alone.MethodsJapanese male subjects aged 21–65 years with gout (n = 37) or asymptomatic hyperuricaemia (n = 35) and serum urate (sUA) ⩾8 mg/… Show more

“…The results of this trial further the concept that potent URAT1 inhibitors without prolonged activities in humans, such as lesinurad and verinurad, must be given with an XOI that simultaneously reduces the production of uric acid. To this end, no subjects in the trials where verinurad was combined with an XOI have shown increases in sCr !1.5 Â baseline [24][25][26]. These results are consistent with those of lesinurad, which is associated with significant increases in renal AEs when given as monotherapy [10].…”

“…A patient on benzbromarone excretes uric acid at a lower steady rate over the entire 24-hour period post dosing whereas a patient on verinurad excretes uric acid at a higher rate over the initial 6-8 hours. The higher rate of excretion with verinurad was reduced to less than or equal to that with benzbromarone when combined with an XOI [24].…”

“…Gout is a type of acute and chronic inflammation and tissue damage caused by the deposition of monosodium urate in bone joints, kidneys and subcutaneous areas, and it is directly related to hyperuricemia caused by purine metabolic disorder and/or reduced uric acid excretion. 6 During an acute attack, the main manifestations were inflammation, joint swelling, heat and pain and were usually relieved spontaneously within two weeks. After that, the patient has entered the intermission period between attacks, which is characterized by asymptomatic hyperuricemia.…”
