What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    A serious adverse event is defined as an adverse event that meets at least 1 of the following serious criteria: • fatal • life threatening • requires in patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization • results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity • congenital anomaly/birth defect • other medically important serious event. Treatment-related adverse events are those the investigator assessed as being possibly related to any study mandated activity (eg, administration of investigational product, protocol-required therapies, device(s) and/or procedure). Events of interest included acute pancreatitis, convulsions, drug related hepatic disorders, fractures, hypersensitivity, hypocalcemia, ischaemic heart disease, ventricular tachyarrhythmias, cardiac failure, and hypotension.

    Measured: Day 1 to day 30

    Measured: Baseline (predose) and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours post-dose

  5. Terminal Half-life of Cinacalcet

    The terminal half-life (T1/2) of cinacalcet associated with the slope of the terminal phase.

    Measured: Baseline (predose) and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours post-dose

  6. Percent Change From Baseline in Intact Parathyroid Hormone

    Measured: Baseline (predose) and at 2, 8, 12 and 48 hours post-dose.

  7. Percent Change From Baseline in Total Calcium

    Measured: Baseline (predose) and 2, 8, 12 and 48 hours post-dose.

  8. Percent Change From Baseline in Albumin Corrected Calcium

    Measured: Baseline (predose) and 2, 8, 12 and 48 hours post-dose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Cinacalcet in people with Chronic Kidney Disease and Hyperparathyroidism, Secondary, run by Amgen at 10 sites in 3 countries.

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 10 inclusion and 15 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 17 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in United Kingdom, United States, Germany. 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 19 Dec 2016). 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?

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (time frame: Day 1 to day 30). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01290029, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 17 Jun 2020.
