Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The objective of this pilot study is to investigate the effect of PTH-lowering using etelcalcetide on the overall propensity of serum for calcification utilizing the novel T50-test in prevalent end-stage renal disease patients on chronic hemodialysis with secondary hyperparathyroidism. ;Secondary Objective: The Change of PTH values;Primary end point(s): The Primary endpoint is the Change in T50 value;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: every visit | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
