Brief Summary

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

This is a multi-center, placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, multiple-ascending dose study in patients with hypoparathyroidism.

The total duration of study medication treatment will be 13 weeks and includes a Fixed-Dose Treatment period and a Dose Titration Treatment period. The Fixed-Dose Treatment period consists of multiple daily dosing at a fixed dose level. Once patients have completed the Fixed-Dose Treatment period, patients will enter the Dose Titration Treatment period where PCO371 (or placebo), oral calcium and oral active vitamin D can each be titrated according to the patient's albumin-corrected serum calcium level.

7. Receiving Oral calcium treatment (≥1000 mg/day)
8. No significant changes in the diet from 4 weeks prior to Screening and for the duration of the study.
9. Fasting albumin-corrected serum calcium concentration between 8.0 and 9.0 mg/dL at 2 consecutive visits during the Run-In period, and no more than 25% change in daily doses of oral Ca and active vitamin D between the 2 consecutive visits during the Run-In period.
10. On Day 1, fasting albumin-corrected serum calcium level between 7.5 and 9.0 mg/dL
11. Serum magnesium level ≥ lower limit of normal and ≤ 1.2 x laboratory upper limit of normal
12. Serum 25\[OH\] vitamin D level within the laboratory normal range
13. Estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥ 45 mL/min/1.73 m2
14. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative highly sensitive urine or serum pregnancy test result
15. For women of childbearing potential: agreement to use a highly effective contraceptive method during the treatment period and for 28 days after the last dose of study drug. Hormonal contraceptive methods must be supplemented by a barrier method (preferably male condom) and agreement to refrain from egg donation during the treatment period and for 28 days after the last dose of study drug.
16. For men: agreement to remain abstinent or use contraceptive measures. Men must refrain from donating sperm during this same period.
17. Ability to comply with the study protocol, in the investigator's judgment.
18. For Canadian sites only: Ferritin, as assessed by the local laboratory at screening, must be ≥ the lower limit of normal (LLN).

Exclusion Criteria

1. Pregnant or breastfeeding or intending to become pregnant during the study or within 28 days after the last dose of PCO371
2. Known or suspected history of hypoparathyroidism resulting from an activating mutation in the Ca-sensing receptor gene or impaired responsiveness to PTH (pseudohypoparathyroidism)
3. Clinically significant hypomagnesemia. Adequately treated hypomagnesemia is permitted
4. Any disease that might affect calcium metabolism or calcium-phosphate homeostasis other than hypoparathyroidism
5. History of a major bone fracture within 3 months prior to Screening
6. Any history of clinically significant bleeding disorder or clinically significant abnormal clotting times
7. History of thyroid cancer unless documented to be disease free for ≥1 year
8. History of any other cancer in the past 3 years from Screening with the exception of thyroid cancer , completely removed nonmelanoma skin cancer, basal cell skin carcinoma, and cancer in situ of the cervix
9. Dependence on monthly or more frequent parenteral calcium infusions to maintain calcium homeostasis
10. Disease processes that may adversely affect gastrointestinal absorption
11. Use of oral bisphosphonates within 6 months of Screening and/or intravenous bisphosphonate preparations within 12 months of Screening. Any use of zoledronic acid prior to Screening.
