What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Serum Inorganic Phosphorus at the End of Treatment From Baseline

    Change in serum inorganic phosphorus at the end of treatment from baseline

    Measured: baseline and end of the chewing treatment during three week treatment period

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Number of Participants With Serum Inorganic Phosphorus Reduction of 1.5 mg/dL

    Measured: baseline and end of the treatment

  2. Achievement Number of Participants With Serum Inorganic Phosphorus; 3.5 ≦P<5.5 mg/dL at Week 3

    Measured: week 3

  3. Serum Inorganic Phosphorus Level

    Serum inorganic phosphorus levels were determined at week 3 before the first dialysis of the week (Monday or Tuesday).

    Measured: week 3

  4. Salivary Inorganic Phosphorus Level

    Salivary inorganic phosphorus levels were determined at week 3 before the first dialysis of the week (Monday or Tuesday).

    Measured: week 3

  5. Corrected Serum Calcium (Ca) Level Based on the Serum Albumin Level Corrected Serum Calcium (mg/dL) = Measured Total Ca (mg/dL) + (4 - Serum Albumin [g/dL])

    Serum Ca levels were determined at week 3 before the first dialysis of the week (Monday or Tuesday).

    Measured: week 3

  6. Ca×P

    Serum inorganic phosphorus and Ca levels were determined at week 3 before the first dialysis of the week (Monday or Tuesday).

    Measured: week 3

  7. Serum Intact Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) Level

    Serum intact and whole PTH levels were determined at week 3 before the first dialysis of the week (Monday or Tuesday).

    Measured: week 3

  8. Serum Intact Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) 23 Level

    Serum intact FGF23 levels were determined at week 3 before the first dialysis of the week (Monday or Tuesday).

    Measured: week 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing HS219 in people with Hyperphosphatemia and Chronic Kidney Disease, run by KDL Inc. at 11 sites in Japan.

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 7 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 14 Sep 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in Japan. 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 1 Jun 2012). 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?

Change in Serum Inorganic Phosphorus at the End of Treatment From Baseline (time frame: baseline and end of the chewing treatment during three week treatment period). 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 NCT01039428, which also lists 2 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 14 Sep 2015.
