Clinical Trial Summary

Secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) is common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), including those who are undergoing long-term haemodialysis treatment. sHPT is characterized by persistently elevated levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and major disturbances in phosphorus and calcium metabolism. When glomerular filtration rate (GFR) falls, the phosphorus clearance decreases significantly, leading to phosphorus retention. The resulting hyperphosphatemia is thought to be one of the principal causes of secondary hyperparathyroidism which is a very early complication of patients with CKD. Its diagnosis and treatment is crucial in the management of such patients.The treatment of the sHPT of CKD's patient includes dietary phosphate restriction, the use of phosphate binders, correction of hypocalcaemia, the use of vitamin D and its derivatives. The calcimimetic agent cinacalcet hydrochloride may be also used in combination with vitamin D. While the majority of patients can be controlled in this way, medical therapy is not always successful in achieving adequate control of secondary hyperparathyroidism. Oral medications (calcimimetics, recently developed phosphate binders, and active vitamin D derivatives amount to very high monthly costs, and have efficacy limitations as well as side-effects.

HIFU may become a valuable alternative treatment that help control secondary hyperparathyroidism in selected patients presenting with enlarged parathyroid gland(s) visible at ultrasonography,.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HIFU treatment in chronic haemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism presenting with enlarged parathyroid gland(s) which are visible at ultrasonography and for whom medical therapy has been unsuccessful.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
