About this trial

The effect of dotinurad on CAVI (cardio-ankle vascular index) will be compared with that of febuxostat in patients with hyperuricemia complicated by hypertension.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients aged 20 years or older at the time of consent (regardless of gender)

Patients with hyperuricemia with serum uric acid level >7.0 mg/dL who have not received any urate lowering drug within 27 days prior to obtaining consent, or patients who were receiving urate lowering drugs at the time of obtaining consent but have been off the drugs for more than 27 days

Hypertensive patients who meet the definition of hypertension in the latest Hypertension Treatment Guidelines of the Japanese Society of Hypertension and whose treatment for hypertension (with or without drug therapy) has not changed within 4 weeks prior to eligibility determination

Patients who have given written consent to participate in this study

Disqualifiers
