Trial summary

The aim of the study is to assess the effects of the drug lanthanum carbonate (a phosphorus binder drug) on c-terminal and on FGF23 levels in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Targeting FGF23 measurement in CKD patients may impact both the progression of kidney disease and patient mortality. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Lanthanum Carbonate on Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23 ) in Chronic Kidney Disease

The aim of the study is to assess the effects of the drug lanthanum carbonate (a phosphorus binder drug) on c-terminal and on FGF23 levels in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).

Targeting FGF23 measurement in CKD patients may impact both the progression of kidney disease and patient mortality.

Read the detailed description

This is a double blind randomized placebo controlled pilot study. Subjects with Chronic Kidney Disease ( CKD) stages 3-5 who are not undergoing renal replacement therapy and have not been started on phosphate binders will be randomized to either lanthanum carbonate 1500 mg daily or placebo for a 60 day treatment period. Patient doses will be increased up to a maximum dose of 3000 mg if the serum phosphate is greater than 5.5 mg/dL.

Being tested
Lanthanum Carbonate (Fosrenol), placebo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lanthanum Carbonate (Fosrenol) in people with Metabolic Bone Disease, run by Endeavor Health at 1 site 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 5 inclusion and 8 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 21 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Sep 2023). 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?

Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) 23 Mean Change From Baseline (time frame: Baseline, 60 days). 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 NCT01002872, which also lists 6 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 21 Sep 2023.
