Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: Adults (≥18 years of age) with CKD, eGFR ≥25 mL/min/1.73 m2, UACR 30-5000 mg/g and sUA ≥6.0 mg/dL will be enrolled. Approximately 725 patients will be randomized 1:1:1:1:1 to 12, 7.5 or 3 mg verinurad + allopurinol, allopurinol or placebo. An 8-week dose-titration period will precede a 12-month treatment period; verinurad dose will be increased to 24 mg at Month 9 in a subset of patients in the 3 mg verinurad + allopurinol arm. The primary efficacy endpoint the is change from baseline in UACR at 6 months. Secondary efficacy endpoints include changes in UACR, eGFR and sUA from baseline at 6 and 12 months. CONCLUSIONS: This study will assess the combined clinical effect of verinurad + allopurinol on kidney function in patients with CKD, hyperuricaemia and albuminuria, and whether this combination confers renoprotection beyond standard-of-care.
