Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the efficacy of cinacalcet when co-administered with the first meal after dialysis is comparable (non-inferior) to the efficacy of cinacalcet when administered during the dialysis study visit.
Interventions
All eligible subjects were assigned to receive once daily oral doses of cinacalcet, but were randomised in a 1:1 ratio to receive the drug either with the first meal after dialysis or during the dialysis visit on dialysis days.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
- CKD patients requiring dialysis (HD, HDF, HF) for at least 1 month before enrolment - An iPTH determination within 14 days before randomisation must be greater than or equal to 300 pg/mL (biPTH greater than or equal to 150 pg/mL) - A serum calcium determination (corrected for calcium) within 14 days before randomisation must be greater than or equal to 8.4 mg/dL \[2.1 mmol/L\]
Exclusion criteria
