New hope for dialysis patients struggling with dangerous mineral levels

NCT ID NCT00506441

Completed Disease control Sponsor: Tanabe Pharma Corporation Source: ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Summary

This study tested whether a drug called MCI-196 could safely and effectively control high phosphorus levels in the blood of adults with kidney failure who are on dialysis. After a 12-week period where all participants received the drug, some were randomly switched to a placebo (dummy pill) for 4 weeks to see if their phosphorus levels worsened. The goal was to see if the drug could help manage this common and serious complication of kidney disease.
