NCT03118739

Brief Summary

The purpose of this clinical research study is to evaluate signals of potential clinical benefit of the combination of Verinurad and Febuxostat in lowering concentrations of circulating uric acid and thus improving kidney or cardiovascular status of patients with hyperuricemia, albuminuria, and Type 2 diabetes (T2DM).

Limitations and Caveats

The treatment code was broken for 3 patients.The effect of verinurad/febuxostat on sUA was underestimated as drug was administered after collection of blood samples.3 patients treated with verinurad/febuxostat had no detectable drug in PK samples.
