Conditions

Chronic Renal Insufficiency, Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Brief summary

This study will assess an investigational medication for patients with chronic renal insufficiency (pre-dialysis) who have secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Interventions

DRUGcinacalcet (AMG 073)

Initially receive 1 tablet of study medication (cinacalcet or placebo) once daily. Possible sequential dose titrations are 30, 60, 90, 120, 180mg cinacalcet or placebo) daily. The titration phase was 12 weeks and the efficacy assessment phase was 6 weeks.
