The effects of xanthine oxidase inhibitor in patients with chronic heart failure complicated with hyperuricemia: a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial of topiroxostat vs allopurinol-study protocol.
    Clinical and experimental nephrology, 2018, Volume: 22, Issue:6

    Hyperuricemia has a close relationship with cardiovascular diseases including heart failure. However, it is controversial whether xanthine oxidase inhibition has benefits for patients with chronic heart failure. We designed the Effect of Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitor in Chronic Heart Failure Patients Complicated with Hyperuricemia study (Excited-UA study) to compare the beneficial effects between a novel xanthine oxidoreductase inhibitor, topiroxostat, and a conventional agent, allopurinol, in patients with chronic heart failure and hyperuricemia. We focus on serum N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level, echocardiography-based cardiac function, vascular endothelial function, renal function, inflammation, and oxidative stress.. The excited-UA is a prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint clinical trial designed to prove our hypothesis that topiroxostat is more effective than allopurinol in patients with chronic heart failure and hyperuricemia. A total of 140 patients with chronic heart failure and hyperuricemia (plasma brain natriuretic peptide level ≥ 40 pg/mL and serum uric acid level ≥ 7.0 mg/dL) are randomly assigned (ratio 1:1) into either the topiroxostat group (40-160 mg/day) or allopurinol group (100-300 mg/day), to achieve the target uric acid level of 6.0 mg/dL. According to the protocol, all patients are followed up annually for 24 weeks. The primary endpoint is percent change in serum NT-proBNP level at 24 weeks from baseline.. The Excited-UA study would provide novel evidence for the clinical relevancy of xanthine oxidoreductase inhibitor treatment in patients with chronic heart failure and hyperuricemia.

Effect of Topiroxostat on Brain Natriuretic Peptide Level in Patients with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Pilot Study.
    Journal of Nippon Medical School = Nippon Ika Daigaku zasshi, 2021, Nov-17, Volume: 88, Issue:5

    Various optimal medical therapies have been established to treat heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Both HFrEF and HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are associated with poor outcomes. We investigated the effect of topiroxostat, an oral xanthine oxidoreductase inhibitor, for HFpEF patients with hyperuricemia or gout.. In this nonrandomized, open-label, single-arm trial, we administered topiroxostat 40-160 mg/day to HFpEF patients with hyperuricemia or gout to achieve a target uric acid level of 6.0 mg/dL. The primary outcome was rate of change in log-transformed brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level from baseline to 24 weeks after topiroxostat treatment. The secondary outcomes included amount of change in BNP level, uric acid evaluation values, and oxidative stress marker levels after 24 weeks of topiroxostat treatment. Thirty-six patients were enrolled; three were excluded before study initiation.. Change in log-transformed BNP level was -3.4 ± 8.9% (p = 0.043) after 24 weeks of topiroxostat treatment. The rate of change for the decrease in BNP level was -18.0 (-57.7, 4.0 pg/mL; p = 0.041). Levels of uric acid and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine/creatinine, an oxidative stress marker, also significantly decreased (-2.8 ± 1.6 mg/dL, p < 0.001, and -2.3 ± 3.7 ng/mgCr, p = 0.009, respectively).. BNP level was significantly lower in HFpEF patients with hyperuricemia or gout after topiroxostat administration; however, the rate of decrease was low. Further trials are needed to confirm our findings.
