Overview

Verinurad is a novel, orally active, small molecule drug that acts as a potent and selective inhibitor of the urate transporter 1 (URAT1). It is in clinical development primarily for the treatment of gout and asymptomatic hyperuricemia. By inhibiting URAT1, verinurad reduces the reabsorption of uric acid in the kidneys, thereby increasing its excretion and lowering serum urate levels. Verinurad has also been investigated for potential use in heart failure. The drug is structurally distinct from other URAT1 inhibitors such as lesinurad but shares a similar mechanism of action. AstraZeneca is developing verinurad[3][5][6][7].
