Study Details

Hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is common in people with a kidney transplant. Patients with HPT often have high parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels and may have large parathyroid glands in the neck. Patients with HPT can develop bone disease (osteodystrophy). This bone disease can cause bone pain, fractures, and poor formation of red blood cells. Other problems from HPT may include increases in blood levels of calcium (hypercalcemia) and low blood levels of phosphorus (hypophosphatemia). The high calcium levels may cause calcium to deposit in body tissues. Calcium deposits can cause arthritis (joint pain and swelling), muscle inflammation, itching, gangrene (death of soft tissue), heart and lung problems or kidney transplant dysfunction (worsening of kidney transplant function). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of cinacalcet (Sensipar/Mimpara) on high calcium levels in the blood in patients with HPT after a kidney transplant.

Protocol Summary

Primary Outcome Measures

Correction of hypercalcemia, defined as achievement of a mean corrected total serum calcium value < 10.2 mg/dL (2.55 mmol/L), during the Efficacy Assessment Phase (EAP)

Timeframe: Weeks 21 to 26

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percent change in the bone mineral density at the femoral neck measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan from baseline to Week 52

Timeframe: From baseline to Week 52

Absolute change in mean serum phosphorus from baseline to the EAP

Timeframe: From baseline to the EAP
