Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The minor allele of the common rs2231142 ABCG2 variant predicts inadequate response to allopurinol urate lowering therapy. We hypothesize that additional variants in genes encoding urate transporters and allopurinol-to-oxypurinol metabolic enzymes also predict allopurinol response. METHODS: This study included a subset of participants with gout from the Long-term Allopurinol Safety Study Evaluating...
