About this study

Official title: Effect of Lanthanum Carbonate and Sevelamer Hydrochloride on Gastrointestinal Calcium Absorption in Patients With Moderate to Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease

Sevelamer hydrochloride (SE) can increase intestinal calcium absorption in contrast to lanthanum carbonate (LA). Study compared effect of LA and SE on serum and urine phosphate and calcium, and hormones regulating mineral-bone metabolism.

Read the detailed description

Recent experimental studies have shown that a non-calcium based phosphate binder sevelamer hydrochloride can increase intestinal calcium absorption in contrast to lanthanum carbonate. It is unknown whether such the difference may have an effect on bone metabolism and/or modify the development of vascular calcification in patients with chronic kidney disease. The aim of the study was to compare the effect of a single dose of 1000 mg of lanthanum carbonate with 2,4 mg of sevelamer hydrochloride on serum and urine calcium following an oral load of 5 g of calcium carbonate given with a meal with standardized phosphate content.

Model description
Prospective randomized open-label study included 34 patients with CKD. Single oral dose of one of phosphate binders (sevelamer or lanthanum) were administered in random order 15 minutes after 5 g calcium carbonate with standardized meal. Serum calcium, phosphate and parathormone were measured at 0, 3, 6, 12, 24 hours after each medication. Bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), sclerostin, calcitriol and FGF-23 were measured at 0, 12 and 24 hours after dose. Calcium and phosphate were measured in 24h urine collections after each drug.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Sevelamer Hydrochloride and Lanthanum Carbonate in people with Chronic Kidney Disease, run by Medical University of Lodz at 1 site in Poland.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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 27 Jul 2021. 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 Poland. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

the change of serum calcium for 24 hours after each drug (time frame: 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours after administration of each drug). 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 NCT03451019, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Jul 2021.
