Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of patiromer administered once daily (QD) when given with food compared to without food (experimental treatment group) for the treatment of hyperkalemia (high potassium in the blood).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Approximately 110 eligible participants with hyperkalemia will be randomly assigned to receive a patiromer starting dose of 8.4- g/day, either with or without food.

All participants will undergo a screening period (1 day) to determine eligibility for study entry. Eligible participants will be treated for 4 weeks and followed for 2 weeks after completing the patiromer treatment. There are six planned clinic visits during the Treatment Period and two planned visits after the last dose of patiromer during the Follow-up Period.

The dose of patiromer may be increased or decreased (titrated) based on participants' individual potassium response.
