Probiotic-Uricase Complex Preparation for Improving Uric Acid Metabolism in Patients With Hyperuricemia
Sponsor: Maanshan Shiqiye Hospital
Summary
This single-center, open-label, two-arm interventional study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a probiotic-uricase complex preparation in patients with hyperuricemia. Participants aged 18 to 60 years with hyperuricemia will be assigned to either the intervention group or the control group. Participants in the intervention group will receive the probiotic-uricase complex preparation during a 2-week treatment period according to the study protocol in addition to conventional management, while participants in the control group will receive conventional management alone. Blood, urine, and fecal samples will be collected at baseline and during follow-up. The primary goal is to assess the change in serum uric acid from baseline after treatment. Secondary assessments include changes in uric acid-related metabolites in blood, urine, and feces, alterations in gut microbiota composition based on metagenomic analysis, and safety outcomes including laboratory parameters and adverse events. This study will explore whether the probiotic-uricase complex may serve as a safe and effective oral intervention for improving uric acid metabolism in patients with hyperuricemia.

Interventions
Probiotic-uricase complex preparation
Participants receive the probiotic-uricase complex preparation capsule orally. Each participant takes it for 2 weeks. Adherence is monitored through capsule counts and diaries. Clinical and biological evaluations will include blood, urine, and fecal sample collection for assessment of uric acid metabolism, related metabolites, gut microbiota composition, and safety parameters. Serum uric acid will be monitored longitudinally to evaluate changes from baseline during treatment and post-treatment follow-up.
