2. Subject has uncontrolled hypertension (defined as systolic pressure above 160 or diastolic pressure above 95 mm Hg at either Screening Visits 1 or 2).

3. Subject has severe hepatic impairment (defined as Child-Pugh Class C) or is known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive.

4. Subject is a solid organ transplant recipient.

5. Subject has a urine protein of 3+ or higher by dipstick by the central laboratory at Screening Visit 2.

6. Subject has a history of glomerulonephritis.

7. Subject is taking valpromide, progabide, valproic acid, or other known inhibitors of epoxide hydrolase, or subject is taking ranolazine, cyclosporine, azathioprine or mercaptopurine.

8. Subject is receiving chronic treatment with more than 325 mg of salicylates per day.

9. Subject is unable to initiate gout flare prophylaxis with colchicine or low-dose oral corticosteroids at Baseline.

10. Subject is taking any other drug approved for use as a urate-lowering medication other than allopurinol or febuxostat (eg, pegloticase, probenecid, benzbromarone) within 4 weeks prior to Screening or during Screening.

11. For subjects who will be taking colchicine for gout flare prophylaxis: Subject is taking, or anticipated to take during the first 6 months on study, moderate or strong Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) inhibitors (ie, verapamil or diltiazem, clarithromycin, and fluconazole; or grapefruit or grapefruit juice).

12. Subject previously participated in a clinical study involving lesinurad (RDEA594) or verinurad (RDEA3170) and received active treatment or placebo, or has taken commercially-available lesinurad.

13. Subject has a gout flare during the Screening Period.

14. Subject is pregnant or breastfeeding.

15. Subject consumes more than 14 drinks of alcohol per week (eg, 1 drink = 5 oz [150 mL] of wine, 12 oz [360 mL] of beer, or 1.5 oz [45 mL] of hard liquor).

16. Subject has a history of malignancy and has been on active treatment within the previous 5 years prior to randomization with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer, treated in situ Grade 1 cervical cancer, or treated ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast.

17. Subject has been hospitalized (other than for elective surgery) or received intravenous contrast (eg, for computerized tomography (CT) scan or any angiography) within 1 month prior to Screening or during Screening.

18. Subject has participated in a clinical trial within 8 weeks prior to Screening.

19. Subject has any other medical or psychological condition, which in the opinion of the Investigator might create undue risk to the subject or interfere with the subject's ability to comply with the protocol requirements or to complete the study.

20. The maximum number of subjects in the eCrCl stratification subgroup has been reached.
