Brief summary

This is a Phase 3, randomised, active controlled, multicentre extension study to investigate the long-term safety and efficacy of PA21, a phosphate binder, for control of hyperphosphataemia in dialysis patients. This is an extension study to PA-CL-05A (NCT01324128), subjects have already been enrolled and have been treated with study medication for at least 24 weeks.

Interventions

Dose range of 5.0 g/day (2 tablets/day) to 15.0 g/day (6 tablets/day).

DRUGSevelamer carbonate

Film coated, compressed tablets. Dose range of 2.4 g/day (3 tablets/day) to 14.4 g/day (18 tablets/day).

Outcome results

Primary

Change From Baseline and Levels at Each Time Point for Serum Calcium

Endpoint is Week 28 or the latest available measurement after baseline when Week 28 data is missing.

Time frame: Every 4 weeks from baseline to Week 28

Population: For the Primary Outcome, data from the Full Analysis Set for PA-CL-05B (FAS5B) was used. The FAS5B consists of all subjects who enrolled in PA-CL-05B, received at least 1 dose of PA-CL-05B medication, and had at least 1 efficacy assessment after the PA-CL-05B study entry visit.
