A Phase 3 Study of KHK7791 in Hyperphosphatemia Patients on Peritoneal Dialysis

JRCT ID: jRCT2051200145

Registered date:04/03/2021

Basic Information

• Recruitment status: Complete
• Health condition(s) or Problem(s) studied: Hyperphosphatemia Patients on Peritoneal Dialysis
• Date of first enrollment: 03/03/2021
• Target sample size: 40
• Study type: Interventional

Intervention(s)

Hemodialysis patients with hyperphosphatemia who have provided written consent will undergo a screening examination.
After pre-enrollment, subjects suspend hyperphosphatemia treatment. During the dosing period, subjects administer the study drug (KHK7791 or placebo) twice daily just before meals in a double blind for 16 weeks. The starting dose of the study drug is 5 mg at a time, and the dose is adjusted in the range of 5, 10, 20, and 30 mg at a time based on the dose adjustment criteria described in the study protocol. Dosage adjustment is performed step by step.

Outcome(s)

• Primary Outcome: Changes in serum phosphorous levels from baseline values at 8 weeks after the start of administration.

Secondary Outcome

- Changes in serum phosphorous levels from baseline values at each time point.
- Achievement of the serum phosphorus level 3.5 mg/dL to <= 6.0 mg/dL at each timepoint and the time of achievement.
- Achievement of the serum phosphorus level 3.5 mg/dL to <= 5.5 mg/dL at each timepoint and the time of achievement.
- Changes in Ca x P product and corrected serum calcium levels from baseline values at each time point.
