Trial Outcomes & Findings for Etelcalcetide to Treat Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Hemodialysis Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder (NCT NCT01414114)

NCT ID: NCT01414114

Last Updated: 2017-04-11

Results Overview

Baseline was defined as the average of 3 predialysis PTH results obtained within 3 weeks of and prior to the first dose of study drug. The efficacy period (defined as the period from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug) value was the mean of the prehemodialysis values obtained during that period.

Measure
Etelcalcetide
Participants received etelcalcetide three times a week (TIW) administered by intravenous bolus injection at the end of each hemodialysis session for 12 weeks. The starting dose was 5 mg and may have been titrated every 4 weeks based on the preceding serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) and corrected calcium (cCa) levels to a maximum dose of 20 mg per hemodialysis session in order to achieve the targeted PTH range while maintaining serum calcium within an acceptable range.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and the efficacy period, defined as from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug (approximately days 68 - 85 for participants who completed 12 weeks of treatment)

Population: The modified intent-to-treat population (all participants who were randomized and received treatment) with available data at both time points.

Baseline was defined as the average of 3 predialysis PTH results obtained within 3 weeks of and prior to the first dose of study drug. The efficacy period (defined as the period from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug) value was the mean of the prehemodialysis values obtained during that period.
