Brief Summary

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

This study investigates the efficacy and the safety of Lanthanum Carbonate for the reduction of urinary oxalate excretion in patients with secondary hyperoxaluria and nephrolithiasis.

Detailed Description

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

Nephrolithiasis/urolithiasis is a prevalent (overall lifetime risk up to 13% in Western countries) and highly recurrent disease. Secondary hyperoxaluria is a key risk factor for the development of calcium oxalate stones, the most frequent stone type. Currently used therapeutic options in secondary hyperoxaluria have limited efficacy. Recent findings in vitro and in a rat model, provided evidence that Lanthanum Carbonate is an effective oxalate binder. The objective of this study is to investigate whether treatment with Lanthanum Carbonate reduces urinary oxalate excretion in human subjects with secondary hyperoxaluria and nephrolithiasis. By treating the patients with two different doses of Lanthanum Carbonate during two 14-day treatment periods, a dose-response will be evaluated.

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

This study investigates the efficacy and the safety of Lanthanum Carbonate for the reduction of urinary oxalate excretion in patients with secondary hyperoxaluria and nephrolithiasis. Patients will be treated during 2 consecutive 14-day treatment periods with a low and a high dose of Lanthanum Carbonate respectively.
