Inclusion Criteria:
* Male or female subjects between the ages of 18 85 years, inclusive.
* Subjects with hyperuricemia and a history or presence of gout per American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism (ACR/EULAR) 2015 criteria.
* Subjects who are currently on urate-lowering therapies (ULT) with an sUA level ≥6.0 mg/dL at screening (Visit 1); or subjects who are currently not on ULT with an sUA level ≥7.0 mg/dL at screening (Visit 1). Subjects currently on ULT will undergo washout and must have an sUA level ≥7.0 mg/dL at Visit 3 to be randomized and participate in the study.

* Subjects experiencing an acute gout attack (intense pain, swelling, or/and tenderness in the joint area) within 2 weeks prior to screening (Visit 1).
* Subjects who have received pegloticase to treat gout which has not responded to the usual treatments.
