Figure 1. Changes in serum urate during sequential combination therapy. At 12 months, SUA had decreased significantly (Δ = 7.4 mg/dL; 95% CI, 6–8.7; p < 0.01), with FBX alone contributing to a Δ of 5.4 mg/dL and BNZ an additional Δ of 2.1 mg/dL (both p < 0.01). (a) Reduction in SUA after initial uptitration of FBX over 6 months. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. (b) Additional decrease in SUA after addition of BNZ. SUA: serum urate; FBX: febuxostat; BNZ: benzbromarone; CI: confidence interval; SD: standard deviation
