Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of paricalcitol injection. Subjects will administer clinical supplies 3 times a week, 40 weeks at dialysis session in dose-titration manner, following 12 weeks of treatment in the dose-response study, M10-309 (NCT00667576).
The purpose of this study was to investigate the initial dose and dose adjustment range for paricalcitol injection in patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis who have secondary hyperparathyroidism.
The objective of this study was to assess the bioequivalence of Roxane Laboratories' Calcitriol capsules, 0.25 mcg, to ROCALTROL® capsules, 0.25 mcg (Roche) using a single-dose, 2-treatment, 2-period, crossover design, under fasting conditions
This study is being done to find out whether patients who receive a kidney transplant can benefit from taking the medication paricalcitol (trade name Zemplar®) as compared to kidney transplant recipients not taking this medication. The main possible benefits being studied are: - Lower risk for overactive parathyroid glands after kidney transplantation. - Lower risk of low bone density in the spine and hip after kidney transplantation. By dividing patients in the study into a group receiving Zemplar® and a group not receiving Zemplar®, it will be possible to understand the good and bad effects of Zemplar® during the first year after a kidney transplant.
To examine the effects of two types of active vitamin D (calcitriol and doxercalciferol) and two phosphate binders (sevelamer and calcium carbonate) on the bone disease and blood tests of children with kidney failure
Prospective, non-randomized, multi-center study to assess the efficacy and safety of paricalcitol injection or oral administered over 6 months to patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism on dialysis.
Patients with chronic kidney disease and end stage renal disease have greater cardiovascular risk than the general population. Vitamin D analogues have been shown in observational studies to have mortality benefit for these patients. This study is designed to investigate doxercalciferol's effect on the vasculature (i.e. endothelial cell function) as a possible mechanism to explain the mortality benefit.
Protocol HECT00306 aims to determine clinically appropriate doses of Hectorol (doxercalciferol capsules) when converting from Zemplar (paricalcitol injection) for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in Stage 5 chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis.
This study will measure serum levels of the active Vitamin D compound that circulates in hemodialysis subjects treated with either doxercalciferol injection (Hectorol®) or Zemplar® (paricalcitol injection).
The purpose of this study is to show that the use of cinacalcet in patients with End Stage Renal Disease can help achieve NKF K/DOQI targets for both serum calcium and calcium phosphorous product.
