ABSTRACT: Background
Treating hyperphosphatemia is a tenet of dialysis care. This trial assessed the safety and efficacy of tenapanor for the management of hyperphosphatemia.Methods
In this 52-week phase 3 study (NCT03427125), participants receiving maintenance dialysis with both hyperphosphatemia (serum phosphate 6.0-10.0 mg/dl) and a 1.5 mg/dl increase after phosphate binder washout were randomized (3:1) to tenapanor 30 mg twice daily for 26 weeks (randomized treatment period) or sevelamer carbonate (52-week safety control). Participants completing 26 weeks of treatment with tenapanor were rerandomized (1:1) to tenapanor or placebo for 12 weeks (randomized withdrawal period), and were eligible to enter the 14-week safety extension period.
