摘要

Although hyperuricemia is associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD), the impact of uric acid (UA)-lowering drugs on CKD has been controversial. Previous investigations have primarily included xanthine oxidase inhibitors; therefore, research of dotinurad, a recently developed selective urate reabsorption inhibitor, is necessary. This retrospective study included 58 patients with CKD; of these, 29 newly initiated dotinurad and 29 initiated febuxostat. The effects of dotinurad and febuxostat on the serum UA, urinary UA-to-creatinine ratio (UUCR), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) during 3 months were analyzed to compare their impacts on renal function. Dotinurad and febuxostat decreased serum UA (8.40 ± 1.11 to 6.50 ± 0.80 mg/dL [p < 0.001] and 8.91 ± 1.21 to 6.05 ± 1.28 mg/dL [p = < 0.001], respectively). The UUCR increased after dotinurad (0.35 ± 0.15 to 0.40 ± 0.21 g/gCr [p = 0.024]); however, it decreased after febuxostat (0.33 ± 0.12 to 0.21 ± 0.06 g/gCr [p = 0.002]). The eGFR improved after dotinurad (33.9 ± 15.2 to 36.2 ± 15.9 mL/min/1.73 m2 [p < 0.001]). No change was observed after febuxostat treatment (33.4 ± 19.6 to 34.1 ± 21.6 mL/min/1.73 m2). Renal function improved only with dotinurad, thus highlighting its renoprotective effects beyond the reduction of serum UA.
