Participant Flow

This study was conducted at 33 centers in the United States. Participants were enrolled from 1 September 2013 to 9 December 2013. Participants were required to be on a stable dose of daily oral cinacalcet for a minimum of 4 weeks before screening, and during the 4 weeks of screening.

Upon enrollment, participants underwent a washout period of a minimum of 7 days, wherein no cinacalcet use was allowed. Participants who had a serum corrected calcium ≥ 8.3 mg/dL during the washout period entered the treatment phase and were categorized based on their pre-washout, screening cinacalcet daily dose level (30 mg, 60 mg or ≥ 90 mg).
