What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percent Change From Baseline in Mean Pre-hemodialysis Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) During the Efficacy Assessment Phase

    Baseline is defined as the average of pre-hemodialysis values obtained on day -2 and day 1. The efficacy assessment phase (defined as 3 days before and 3 days after the last dose of investigational product) value is the mean of all predialysis values obtained during that period.

    Measured: Baseline and the efficacy assessment phase (EAP; defined as the period between 3 days before and 3 days after the last dose of study drug; approximately 2 weeks for Cohort 1 and 4 weeks for Cohorts 2 and 3)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Percentage of Participants With ≥ 30% Reduction From Baseline in Mean Parathyroid Hormone During the Efficacy Assessment Phase

    Baseline is defined as the average of pre-hemodialysis values obtained on day -2 and day 1. The efficacy assessment phase (defined as 3 days before and 3 days after the last dose of investigational product) value is the mean of all predialysis values obtained during that period.

    Measured: Baseline and the efficacy assessment phase (from 3 days before to 3 days after the last dose of study drug; approximately 2 weeks for Cohort 1 and 4 weeks for Cohorts 2 and 3)

  2. Percentage of Participants With Mean Parathyroid Hormone ≤ 300 pg/mL During the Efficacy Assessment Phase

    The efficacy assessment phase (defined as 3 days before and 3 days after the last dose of investigational product) value is the mean of all predialysis values obtained during that period.

    Measured: Efficacy assessment phase (from 3 days before to 3 days after the last dose of study drug; approximately 2 weeks for Cohort 1 and 4 weeks for Cohorts 2 and 3)

  3. Percent Change From Baseline in Mean Corrected Calcium (cCa) During the Efficacy Assessment Phase

    Baseline is defined as the average of pre-hemodialysis values obtained on day -2 and day 1. The efficacy assessment phase (defined as 3 days before and 3 days after the last dose of investigational product) value is the mean of all predialysis values obtained during that period.

    Measured: Baseline and the efficacy assessment phase (from 3 days before to 3 days after the last dose of study drug; approximately 2 weeks for Cohort 1 and 4 weeks for Cohorts 2 and 3)

  4. Percent Change From Baseline in Mean Phosphorus (P) During the Efficacy Assessment Phase

    Baseline is defined as the average of pre-hemodialysis values obtained on day -2 and day 1. The efficacy assessment phase (defined as 3 days before and 3 days after the last dose of investigational product) value is the mean of all predialysis values obtained during that period.

    Measured: Baseline and the efficacy assessment phase (from 3 days before to 3 days after the last dose of study drug; approximately 2 weeks for Cohort 1 and 4 weeks for Cohorts 2 and 3)

  5. Percent Change From Baseline in Corrected Calcium Phosphorus Product (cCa x P) During the Efficacy Assessment Phase

    Baseline is defined as the average of pre-hemodialysis values obtained on day -2 and day 1. The efficacy assessment phase (defined as 3 days before and 3 days after the last dose of investigational product) value is the mean of all predialysis values obtained during that period.

    Measured: Baseline and the efficacy assessment phase (from 3 days before to 3 days after the last dose of study drug; approximately 2 weeks for Cohort 1 and 4 weeks for Cohorts 2 and 3)

  6. Percentage of Participants With Mean Phosphorus ≤ 4.5 mg/dL or ≤ 5.5 mg/dL During the Efficacy Assessment Phase

    Measured: Efficacy assessment phase

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Etelcalcetide in people with Secondary Hyperparathyroidism, run by KAI Pharmaceuticals at 13 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Apr 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percent Change From Baseline in Mean Pre-hemodialysis Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) During the Efficacy Assessment Phase (time frame: Baseline and the efficacy assessment phase (EAP; defined as the period between 3 days before and 3 days after the last dose of study drug; approximately 2 weeks for Cohort 1 and 4 weeks for Cohorts 2 and 3)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Apr 2017.
