Demographic and clinical factors associated with an SUA ≥6 mg/dl were determined using Poisson regression. This may represent inadequate treatment due to poor compliance, limited duration of treatment, or inadequate modification of lifestyle factors. Topiroxostat – binds and inhibits xanthine oxidase. Arhalofenate – a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-ligand (PPAR)-γ modulator. Data from randomized, double-blind studies demonstrate: Febuxostat 80 and 120 mg/day were significantly more effective that allopurinol 100-300 mg/day in lowering serum uric acid levels. At present, the proportion of adults with gout in the general US population meeting this SUA target is unknown. A case series of 57 people with recurrent gout compared the clinical response to urate-lowering therapy in people whose plasma uric acid remained above (group A) or below (group B) the target of 360 micromol/L (6 mg/dL) [ Li-Yu et al, 2001 ]. Araujo EG, Bayat S, Petsch C, Englbrecht M, Faustini F, Kleyer A, et al. Second, detailed clinical information regarding the participant's gout course, including disease duration, arthrocentesis‐confirmed urate crystals, presence of tophi, and frequency of gout attacks, was not assessed with the NHANES questionnaire. … Levotofisopam – a 2,3-benzodiazepine derivative thought to act as a uricosuric agent. 2015;45:174–183. Most of the identified studies used in vitro assays involving crystallization of MSU from supersaturated solutions of urate. This systematic review was conducted to compare the safety of allopurinol with that of placebo or other urate-lowering drugs in the treatment of gout. This study investigated the ability of pegloticase to reduce tophus in patients with refractory gout. doi: 10.1007/s40266-014-0214-0. This paper provides the findings of a systematic review and network meta-analysis investigating the comparative efficacy and safety of urate-lowering therapies in the treatment of hyperuricemia. Results from papers examining MSU solubility demonstrated that urate solubility is affected by temperature (colder temperatures were ideal for MSU crystallization), pH (slightly basic conditions were better for MSU crystallization), concentration of various ions such as sodium ions, proteins and various connective tissue factors. Enrolled patients, seven males and three females, had a mean age of 58.2 years, mean disease duration of 55.2 years, and received treatment for a mean of 13.32 weeks. The cardiovascular safety of febuxostat has been questioned. Chin J Endocrinol Metab 35(6):486–490. Up to 90% of patients with gout exhibit inefficient renal excretion of uric acid, with only 5-10% of hyperuricemia being associated with increased uric acid production. Brief Summary: Gout is a kind of crystal-associated arthropathy caused by monosodium urate deposition, which is directly related to hyperuricemia caused by purine metabolic disorder and/or decreased uric acid excretion. Castrejon I, Toledano E, Rosario MP, Loza E, Pérez-Ruiz F, Carmona L. Rheumatol Int. Frampton JE. Post-index achievement of target serum uric acid levels differed significantly between cohorts. A total of 330 patients were randomized at 102 study sites, of whom 324 patients received at least one dose of randomized study medication. 2015;75:427–438. Moreover, receipt of a prescription for a ULT agent is intuitively a meaningful surrogate for more severe gout that manifests with recurrent flares or tophaceous deposits. Ranking found benzbromarone to be second to febuxostat at achieving urate-lowering targets. Further, neither dose nor duration of ULT was available in the NHANES data set. Learn about our remote access options, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Welch Center for Prevention, Epidemiology and Clinical Research, and Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland. Available urate-lowering therapies for the treatment of gout can be broadly grouped into the xanthine oxidase inhibitors (allopurinol and febuxostat), uricosuric agents (benzbromarone and probenecid) and a new class of agent, recombinant uricases (pegloticase). 2015;16:296. doi: 10.1186/s12891-015-0762-4. Febuxostat, like allopurinol, is a xanthine oxidase inhibitor, acting to reduce serum uric acid levels by impeding transformation of hypoxanthine to xanthine and of xanthine to uric acid. Allopurinol was generally well tolerated and there were no differences in risk of any type of adverse events between allopurinol (300 mg) and febuxostat (40–240 mg). Fractional excretion of uric acid increased with lesinurad plasma concentrations. Using the ACR guidelines, a ULT indication comprised chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 2–5, a history of nephrolithiasis, or current ULT use. In 2007–2010, 2 of 3 US adults with gout had an SUA concentration ≥6 mg/dl. In terms of tolerability, both short-term and longer-term tolerability was generally good, with most adverse events of mild to moderate severity; in general, the adverse event profiles of febuxostat and allopurinol were similar in clinical trials. There are important limitations to acknowledge. There is some debate regarding a causal relationship: is hyperuricemia/gout a consequence or cause of comorbidities such as cardiovascular disease and obesity? Included patients had a diagnosis of gout with serum urate at least 8.0 mg/dL, or at least 6.0 mg/dL with urate-lowering therapy, and at least one measurable target tophus. We estimated in a nested fashion the total number of US adults (in millions) with gout, those with an indication for ULT, and those with SUA ≥6 mg/dl. Becker MA, Fitz-Patrick D, Choi HK, Dalbeth N, Storgard C, Cravets M, Baumgartner S. Semin Arthritis Rheum. Overall, this network meta-analysis approach demonstrated that febuxostat tended to have higher efficacy and safety than other urate-lowering drugs, especially at a dose of 120 mg once daily. Febuxostat users also had a shorter average length of time to target goal attainment than allopurinol users (<6.0 mg/dL: 348 days vs 410 days, P<0.001; <5.0 mg/dL: 443 days vs 501 days, P<0.001). This systematic literature review was conducted to identify factors contributing to monosodium urate (MSU) crystallization in gout. Treatment with urate-lowering therapy is recommended for an established diagnosis of gout with two or more attacks of acute gout per year, presence of tophi, and chronic kidney disease that is at least stage 2, or renal stones. It provides an alternative option for patients who have experienced severe reactions to allopurinol. Available urate-lowering therapies for the treatment of gout can be broadly grouped into the xanthine oxidase inhibitors (allopurinol and febuxostat), uricosuric agents (benzbromarone and probenecid) and a new class of agent, recombinant uricases (pegloticase). The aim of this study was to determine the proportion of patients who receive urate-lowering therapy following a gout diagnosis, and predictors of such therapy as well as the proportion of patients persisting with treatment, using regional healthcare registers linked with several national mandatory population-based registers in Sweden. In terms of safety, probenecid was associated with a higher rate of adverse events than allopurinol, febuxostat and placebo. At 6 months, target serum urate levels (<6.0 mg/dL) were achieved by 35.9% of patients. Retrospective data were drawn from the Adelphi Disease Specific Programme … Dalbeth N, Jones G, Terkeltaub R, Khanna D, Kopicko J, Bhakta N, et al. Miner JN, Tan PK, Hyndman D, Liu S, Iverson C, Nanavati P, et al. Race/ethnicity was dichotomized as non‐Hispanic white versus other. The most common TEAEs overall were upper respiratory tract infection, diarrhea, and arthralgia. Introduction. Studies evaluating non-ULTs in the setting of acute gout management or prophylaxis during the initiation of a ULT were excluded. In conclusion, a substantial proportion of US adults with clear indications for use of ULT, including those prescribed such agents by their health care provider, have an elevated SUA measurement. This chapter provides an overview of gout, in terms of genetics, mechanisms of disease, and the inflammation and joint damage that occurs, as well as a discussion of the association between the chronic inflammation in gout and cardiovascular outcomes. doi: 10.1136/rmdopen-2015-000075. Richardson JC, Liddle J, Mallen CD, Roddy E, Hider S, Prinjha S, Ziebland S. BMC Musculoskelet Disord. Supplementary Table 1. The other main group of urate-lowering therapies are the uricosuric agents – which lower serum urate by increasing renal urate excretion. Perez-Ruiz F, Castillo E. In: Perez-Ruiz F, Herrero-Beites AM (Eds). Modest discrepancies in percentage values are due to rounding. Patients expressed a desire for ongoing dialogue with their healthcare professional. Curr Rheumatol Rep. 2016;18:34. doi: 10.1007/s11926-016-0587-7. Tranilast – inhibits renal urate transporters, increasing renal urate excretion. Of the 7709 incident cases, 2087 (27%) were followed up following their first dispensation of urate-lowering therapy, of whom 75% did not persist with such treatment. A history of nephrolithiasis was based on an affirmative response to the following question: “Have you ever had kidney stones?”. Chronic gouty arthritis. Patients in the lesinurad 400 mg plus febuxostat group had a higher incidence of TEAEs leading to treatment discontinuation compared with lesinurad 200 mg plus febuxostat or febuxostat alone. The current phase III study was conducted to examine the benefits and risks of lesinurad (200 mg or 400 mg once daily) in combination with febuxostat 80 mg in patients with tophaceous gout. To better define mechanisms and markers doi: 10.1007/978-1-907673-67-2. The antihyperuricemic activity of febuxostat is largely dose dependent. A low level of high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol was defined as <40 mg/dl for men and <50 mg/dl for women. Moreover, SUA is associated with the frequency of gout attacks 12, tophus mobilization, and tophi size 1; maintaining an SUA value <6 mg/dl can deplete intraarticular urate crystal concentrations 12, even after only 3 months of therapy 13. Diabetes mellitus was defined by self‐report. The ability of oxypurinol to induce T-cell responses has been shown to be increased in those with the. In contrast to benzbromarone, lesinurad did not show any peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) activation, or PPARγ agonism which are associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Among adult Americans with gout who are taking urate‐lowering therapy (ULT), half (49%) have a serum uric acid (SUA) level ≥6 mg/dl. There were seven randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials and four systematic reviews, with a total of 4506 adults with gout/hyperuricemia. The 2012 ACR guidelines identified the following categories of adults with gout to be started on ULT therapy: any patient with 1) a tophus or tophi, 2) frequent attacks of acute gouty arthritis (≥2 attacks/year), 3) CKD stage 2–5, or 4) past urolithiasis. This paper discusses the use of urate-lowering therapies in elderly patients, with a focus on the available therapeutic options and their risks and benefits in this patient population, as well as a mention of pipeline therapeutics. 67% which reached the mean uric acid target (6.1 ± 1.0 mg/dL [366.0 ± 59.4 μmol/L]). Learn more. As such, we cannot assess the above itemized clinical features of gout flares among NHANES participants. Evidence suggests that fractional urate excretion can change due to changes in serum urate – likely due to an inherent property of the kidney transporters. The two most important transporters involved in urate reabsorption from the proximal tubules are the kidney urate transporter, URAT1, and glucose transporter 9 (GLUT9). First, gout was assessed by self‐report of a physician or health professional diagnosis of gout. Yet, these findings establish a meaningful baseline to assess efficacy of the new treatment guidelines intended to enhance the quality of care delivered to US adults with gout in this country. Early identification of AHS and discontinuation of allopurinol treatment appear to be crucial for outcome of patients.

Our study has several important strengths. A key theme was the patient feeling that the process of achieving the right dosage was one of trial and error, which could be frustrating for patients, particularly when combined with a lack of explanation. Hyndman D, Liu S, Miner JN. Springer Healthcare, London. This paper provides an overview of the ways in which urate is handled by the human body, in terms of production, renal elimination and intestinal elimination. Other transporters include organic anion transporter 4 (OAT4), shown to be associated with hyperuricemia and gout in genetic studies. Underutilization of urate-lowering therapy (ULT) is thought to be common, via both suboptimal dosing and poor medication adherence. However, assessment of renal function and self‐reported history of nephrolithiasis are ascertained in the NHANES protocol, constituting well‐established indications for ULT. Registration number: PROSPERO (CRD42020153924).Key Points• This is a first meta-analysis about the clinical efficacy of urate-lowering therapy (ULT) in acute gout without language restrictions.• ULT in acute gout may not aggravate the pain (WMD, 0.06; 95% CI, - 0.13 to 0.25).• ULT at the initial sta … The number of patients with complete resolution of tophus did not differ significantly between groups, although treatment with lesinurad plus febuxostat was associated with a reduction in total target tophi area compared with febuxostat alone. To also evaluate the evidence on the optimal time to start a ULT after an acute attack of gout. Participants lacking an SUA measurement, missing gout medication data, or those with unknown gout status were excluded. Urate crystals in joint aspirates were found in 14/16 people in group A, and in 7/16 people in group B. Researchers conducted a network meta-analysis comparing the efficacy and safety of five urate-lowering drugs in terms of their ability to achieve target serum urate levels as well as their safety. a Renal gout denotes those patients with gout and coexistent chronic kidney disease or nephrolithiasis. These have been found in a few select genes to date: Patients with gout usually have several comorbid conditions, often similar to those in metabolic syndrome. Implications of inadequate gout control were assessed through health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and work productivity of patients with gout adequately controlled while taking conventional urate-lowering therapy (ULT) for ≥ 3 months vs those whose gout was inadequately controlled. Four randomized controlled trials compared the safety of allopurinol to placebo and febuxostat. Estimates with black lettering represent the entire US population, while estimates in gray lettering represent a proportion of gout patients or a subpopulation of gout patients. Genetic factors – the human leukocyte antigen. Overall, these results support the use of drugs such as febuxostat and allopurinol, whereas for benzbromarone and probenecid, therapeutic effects were moderate, and these agents were associated with unpleasant side effects. Li S, Yang H, Guo Y, Wei F, Yang X, Li D, et al. In this prospective observational study, a total of 10 patients with gout received pegloticase 8 mg intravenously every 2 weeks, after discontinuation of all other uric acid-lowering therapy. Febuxostat offers the advantage of no requirement for dose adjustment in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment, as well as offering a potential alternative in patients with allopurinol hypersensitivity syndrome. A total of 15 studies involving 7246 adult subjects were included, with the earliest study conducted in 1999 and the most recent one in 2016. Febuxostat was more likely to achieve the target than allopurinol. Of these incident cases, 19% had received urate-lowering therapy within 30 days post diagnosis, with 32% receiving urate-lowering therapy within 365 days post diagnosis. Factors influencing drug concentration – including allopurinol dose, the presence of kidney impairment and use of diuretics. The reduction in tophi varied based on location, with articular tophi rapidly resolving, but tophi persisting longer in bradytrophic tissues such as tendons; large bulky tophi remained virtually unchanged around the Achilles tendon. Editorial Board member Fernando Pérez-Ruiz reflects on changing concepts in the understanding of gout, and reviews the latest developments in new urate-lowering medications for the management of gout. The main analysis of this study used 873 matched pairs with no evidence of treatment with allopurinol of febuxostat in the pre-index period (treatment naïve patients). Part 1: systematic nonpharmacologic and pharmacologic therapeutic approaches to hyperuricemia, Quality of care for gout in the US needs improvement, Quality of care indicators for gout management, National Kidney Foundation K/DOQI clinical practice guidelines for chronic kidney disease: evaluation, classification, and stratification, Association of kidney disease with prevalent gout in the United States in 1988–1994 and 2007–2010, Dose‐response association of uncontrolled blood pressure and cardiovascular disease risk factors with hyperuricemia and gout. 2016;12:235–242. Furthermore, among those already on ULT, half did not achieve the target level established by the ACR guidelines. As for the latter group, i.e., those with gout receiving ULT, older age was similarly related to a lower prevalence of an SUA value ≥6 mg/dl. 2015; 17:120. doi: 10.1186/s13075-015-0624-3. POTENTIAL MECHANISMS UNDERLYING THE URATE-LOWERING EFFECTS Weight loss is thought to decrease SUA levels primarily by increasing renal excretion of urate and in part by decreasing urate production.27,29–31For example, a previous intervention study found that fractional excretion of uric acid was substantially lower among obese individuals In 2007–2010, an estimated 4.5 million US adults with gout had an indication for ULT; two‐thirds had an SUA ≥6 mg/dl. Methods Drugs. For example, studies examining the effects of urate-lowering therapy in hypertensive adults have not shown a consistent benefit while the two studies in adolescents have both shown a significant reduction in blood pressure (Table 3). Under urate lowering treatment with febuxostat mean serum uric acid levels decreased significantly from 8.9 ± 1.9 mg/dL (534.0 ± 114.6 μmol/L) at baseline to 6.2 ± 2.5 mg/dL (372.0 ± 150.0 μmol/L) at week 4. An emerging area of research interest is that of the impact of hyperuricemia on cardiovascular outcomes, with a mild-to-moderate impact of hyperuricemia on cardiovascular events shown in recent systematic reviews and meta-analyses. It belongs to the category of metabolic rheumatism. Febuxostat was mostly more effective than allopurinol at achieving the treatment target of hyperuricemia. Urate-lowering therapy (ULT) should be discussed and offered to all people with a diagnosis of gout. Of the 7.7 million adults with gout in the US, 58.5% or 4.5 million have an indication for ULT (Figure 1). Principles of appropriate long-term gout management include the appropriate use of urate-lowering therapy (ULT) to keep serum urate (sUA) at or below 6 mg/dl and to treat acute gout flares with short-term anti-inflammatory drugs such as corticosteroids, colchicine or non … Factors associated with having a uric acid concentration above goal among persons with renal gout or using urate‐lowering therapy. Febuxostat is an established alternative to allopurinol, which remains the gold standard, most widely prescribed urate-lowering therapy for gout. On network treatment comparisons, febuxostat, benzbromarone, probenecid, pegloticase and allopurinol were all highly effective in comparison to placebo at achieving the treatment target. This may, at least in part, be explained by genetics. Several genetic factors associated with hyperuricemia have been identified, such as polymorphisms encoding hyperactive variants of renal tubular uric acid transporters that have been associated with increased risk of hyperuricemia and gout. The aim was to explore reasons for this through an exploration of patient experience and understanding of ULT treatment for gout. Two studies compared safety of allopurinol versus probenecid and benzbromarone. To determine the effects of lesinurad on urate, uric acid and lesinurad levels were measured in the blood and urine of healthy volunteers: Lesinurad produced a dose-dependent increase in fractional excretion of uric acid. Uricosuric acids have utility in selected patients, and pegloticase, although effective, is currently restricted to severe cases and usually administered in specialist centres. Reasons for such resistance included the long-term nature of treatment, sense of identity, dislike of multiple medications and desire for self-management. Informed consent was obtained per the NCHS and the NHANES protocols 7. The prevalence of gout is rising; estimates show it has affected more than 3.5% of US adults in 2007–2010 2, 3. Conclusion A nurse-led approach focusing on patient understanding about gout is the most effective in achieving improved patient adherence, and lowered SU levels among patients. Analyses were performed using Stata, version 11.1. Please enable JavaScript on your browser, so that you can use all features of this website. Dr. Gelber had full access to all of the data in the study and takes responsibility for the integrity of the data and the accuracy of the data analysis. Characteristics of the gout population in NHANES 2007–2010 were determined using weighted mean ± SE or prevalence estimates. Continuing urate-lowering therapy during flares – In patients already receiving urate-lowering pharmacotherapy at the time of a gout flare (eg, allopurinol, febuxostat, probenecid, lesinurad, benzbromarone, or pegloticase), the urate-lowering medication should be continued without interruption. The target SUA level, among those for whom ULT is indicated, was defined using the ACR guideline as an SUA value <6.0 mg/dl (360 μmol/liter) for both women and men 4. ULT = urate‐lowering therapy. Juraschek, Gelber. These can be broadly categorized as an increase in the production of uric acid, inefficient renal excretion and inefficient intestinal excretion of uric acid. Elevated serum urate (>6.8 mg/dL) is the primary cause of gout in patients. From a search conducted to identify all studies published up until January 2014 providing information about allopurinol safety, a total of 11 met inclusion criteria. This paper provides a review of febuxostat in the treatment of hyperuricemia in patients with gout, including pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, efficacy and safety, and its place in therapy. doi: 10.1007/s00296-014-3189-6. With its complex sampling design ensuring a study population representative of the US, these reported data are less influenced by selection biases inherent among inpatient or clinic‐based cohorts. Background/Purpose: In gout, long-term xanthine oxidase inhibitor treat to target urate lowering therapy (XOIT2T) markedly reduces flares and synovitis, despite delayed resolution of tissue crystal deposits. This paper reviews the role of genetics in the development and management of gout. There were 10,977 adults, age ≥20 years, who participated in NHANES 2007–2010. Serum total cholesterol levels were also measured. Objective. Arthritis Res Ther. Patterns of allopurinol and febuxostat usage were assessed using data from a large managed care organization. Single doses of lesinurad led to a dose-dependent reduction in serum uric acid. Gout status was ascertained based on self‐report to the following question: “Has a doctor or other health professional ever told you that you had gout?” Further, NHANES staff documented medication use in the prior 30‐day period using medication bottles brought to the mobile examination center and specifically identifying use of colchicine and ULT (allopurinol, probenecid, or combination colchicine/probenecid). Given their availability, a comparative study of these two drugs is needed to help patients, providers and policy makers in making treatment decisions. That pathophysiologic mechanisms or practice patterns influence these identified associations with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and obesity is at this time conjecture. To optimally manage gout, the 2012 guidelines disseminated by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) recommend that persons with gout, particularly those with tophi, frequent attacks (≥2 attacks/year), chronic kidney disease (CKD; stage 2–5), or a history of nephrolithiasis, achieve an SUA value <6 mg/dl 3, 4. doi: 10.1007/s40265-015-0360-7. 2017;19:6. doi: 10.1186/s13075-016-1211-y. Allopurinol was more likely than febuxostat to cause adverse events. Furthermore, among those with gout currently receiving ULT, 49% had SUA ≥6 mg/dl. Febuxostat, a novel xanthine oxidase inhibitor for the treatment of symptomatic hyperuricemia, showed superiority over allopurinol in the reduction of serum uric acid levels in pivotal studies. Intestinal elimination is responsible for excretion of remaining urate, with urate transporters, such as ABCG2 and NPT5, considered likely to be involved. Importantly, any given molecule of urate may pass through the kidney multiple times a day before being excreted, with renal transporters driving both secretion and reabsorption of urate. Gout is defined as the presence of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals in tissues, but not all patients with such hyperuricemia develop gout. While the incidence of treatment emergent adverse effects (TEAEs) was higher with lesinurad plus febuxostat than febuxostat alone, most events were grade 1 or 2, and the incidence of serious AEs and of TEAEs leading to study withdrawal were comparable across groups. Can we determine when urate stores are depleted enough to prevent attacks of gout? An even higher proportion had SUA ≥6 mg/dl among US adults with CKD, stage 2–5 (69%), or with a history of nephrolithiasis (70%). 2014:13–24.
