Effects of sucroferric oxyhydroxide and sevelamer carbonate on chronic kidney disease–mineral bone disorder parameters in dialysis patients

Abstract Background Treatment of hyperphosphataemia is the primary goal of chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) management. This post hoc analysis of a randomized, Phase 3 study evaluated the effects of 1-year treatment with the phosphate binders sucroferric oxyhydroxide or sev...

Description
Summary:Abstract Background Treatment of hyperphosphataemia is the primary goal of chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) management. This post hoc analysis of a randomized, Phase 3 study evaluated the effects of 1-year treatment with the phosphate binders sucroferric oxyhydroxide or sevelamer carbonate (‘sevelamer’) on CKD-MBD indices among dialysis patients with hyperphosphataemia. Methods After a 2- to 4-week washout from previous phosphate binders, 1059 patients were randomized 2:1 to sucroferric oxyhydroxide 1.0–3.0 g/day (n = 710) or sevelamer 2.4–14.4 g/day (n = 349) for up to 24 weeks. Eligible patients enrolled in a 28-week extension. This post hoc analysis was performed for patients who completed ≥1 year of continuous treatment (n = 549). As the treatment groups showed similar CKD-MBD outcomes, the data were pooled for this analysis. Results Phosphate-binder therapy was associated with significant and sustained 30% reductions in serum phosphorus (P
