Efficacy and Safety of Sucroferric Oxyhydroxide Compared with Sevelamer Carbonate in Chinese Dialysis Patients with Hyperphosphataemia: A Randomised, Open-Label, Multicentre, 12-Week Phase III Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of sucroferric oxyhydroxide (SFOH) versus sevelamer carbonate in controlling serum phosphorus (sP) in adult Chinese dialysis patients with hyperphosphataemia (sP >1.78 mmol/L).

Methods

Open-label, randomised (1:1), active-controlled, parallel group, multicentre, phase III study of SFOH and sevelamer at starting doses corresponding to 1,500 mg iron/day and 2.4 g/day, respectively, with 8-week dose titration and 4-week maintenance (NCT03644264). Primary endpoint was non-inferiority analysis of change in sP from baseline to week 12. Secondary endpoints included sP over time and safety.

Results

415 patients were screened; 286 were enrolled and randomised (142 and 144 to SFOH and sevelamer, respectivel
