Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Adults greater than or equal to 18 years of age on hemodialysis for \> 3 and less than or equal to 12 months prior to enrollment into the study
* Mean of 2 PTH determinations during the screening period (drawn at least 2 days apart) \> 300 pg/mL (31.8 pmol/L); or biPTH \> 160 pg/mL (17.0 pmol/L)
* Mean of 2 corrected serum calcium determinations drawn on the same day as the PTH determinations greater than or equal to 8.4 mg/dL (2.1 mmol/L)
* Subject will be able to complete the study, to the best of his/her knowledge
* Before any study-specific procedure, the appropriate written informed consent must be obtained

Exclusion Criteria

* Mean of 2 PTH determinations during the screening period (drawn at least 2 days apart) \> 800 pg/mL (84.9 pmol/L); or biPTH \> 430 pg/mL (45.6 pmol/L) AND receiving vitamin D on entering screening
* Parathyroidectomy (partial or full) less than or equal to 6 months before entering screening
* Anticipated parathyroidectomy (partial or full) within 6 months after randomization
* Have a scheduled date for kidney transplant surgery
* Received cinacalcet since initiating hemodialysis
* Have received vitamin D therapy for less than 30 days before entering screening or required a change in prescribed vitamin D brand or dose within 30 days before entering screening. If subjects are not receiving vitamin D therapy, they must remain free of vitamin D therapy for the 30 days before entering screening
* Subject is pregnant (eg, positive HCG test) or is breast-feeding
* Refusal to use highly effective contraceptive measures (as determined by the investigator) throughout the study (screening and post enrollment)
* Current gastrointestinal disorder that may be associated with impaired absorption of orally administered medications or an inability to swallow tablets
* Known sensitivity, intolerance, or other adverse response to cinacalcet which would prevent on-study treatment compliance
* Have an unstable medical condition within 30 days before screening, or otherwise unstable in the judgment of the investigator
* Subject is currently enrolled in, or fewer than 30 days prior to entering screening have passed since subject received other investigational agent(s) (devices or drug).
