RDEA806

Drug

Uricosuric agent for the treatment of gout

Placebo

Drug

Matching Placebo.

Primary outcomes

  1. To compare the proportion of subjects whose serum uric acid (sUA) level is <6.0 mg/dL following 4 weeks of continuous treatment with RDEA806.

    Time frame: 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. To evaluate the proportion of subjects whose sUA levels are <6.0 mg/dL, <5.0 mg/dL and <4.0 mg/dL, at each visit.

    Time frame: 4 weeks

  2. To evaluate the absolute and percent reduction from baseline in sUA levels

    Time frame: 4 weeks

  3. To evaluate percent change in 24-hour urine uric acid level

    Time frame: 4 weeks
