Summary
This Phase 3 trial tested MCI-196, a drug that binds phosphorus and lowers cholesterol, in 642 adults on dialysis with chronic kidney disease. Participants received either MCI-196 or a placebo for 12 weeks. The goal was to see if the drug could safely reduce both serum phosphorus and LDL-cholesterol levels, which are linked to heart and bone problems in dialysis patients.
