Effect of niacin on FGF23 concentration in chronic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT: Elevated serum phosphorus and FGF23 are independent cardiovascular risk factors in patients with chronic kidney disease. In a randomized controlled trial of patients with dyslipidemia assigned to either extended release niacin (ERN) alone, ERN combined with the selective prostaglandin D2 receptor subtype 1 inhibitor laropiprant (ERN-L) or placebo, niacin lowered serum phosphorus; however, it is not known if it lowers FGF23 concentrations.This is an ancillary study to a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial among patients with dyslipidemia and an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 30-74 ml/min/1.73 m(2). Participants were randomized to ERN-L (n = 162), ERN (n = 97), or placebo (n = 68) in a 3:2:1 ratio for 24 weeks. The primary outcome was a change in serum FGF23 concentrations, and secondary outcomes were changes in other mineral metabolism parameters.Both the ERN and ERN-L groups showed significant declines in serum phosphorus, calcium and calcium·phosphorus product at 24 weeks compared to placebo. A significant decline from baseline (10.9%, p < 0.01) in the serum FGF23 concentration was observed in the ERN group compared to placebo, but not in the ERN-L group compared to placebo (p = 0.36 and 0.97 for ERN-L and placebo, respectively), despite equivalent declines in serum phosphorus. Similarly, the most marked declines in PTH occurred in the ERN-only group versus placebo; no change in PTH was observed in the ERN-L group.In this ancillary study of hyperlipidemic patients with an eGFR of 30-74 ml/min/1.73 m(2), ERN alone but not in combination with laropiprant lowered FGF23 and PTH concentrations. If confirmed, niacin may provide a novel strategy to decrease phosphorus, FGF23, and PTH concentrations in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Project description:Background and objectivesThe Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) demonstrated that intensive BP lowering reduced the risk of cardiovascular disease, but increased eGFR decline. Serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) and fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) concentrations are elevated in CKD and are associated with cardiovascular disease. We evaluated whether intact PTH or intact FGF23 concentrations modify the effects of intensive BP control on cardiovascular events, heart failure, and all-cause mortality in SPRINT participants with CKD.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsWe measured PTH and FGF23 in 2486 SPRINT participants with eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m2 at baseline. Cox models were used to evaluate whether serum PTH and FGF23 concentrations were associated with cardiovascular events, heart failure, and all-cause mortality, and whether PTH and FGF23 modified the effects of intensive BP control.ResultsThe mean age of this subcohort was 73 years, 60% were men, and mean eGFR was 46±11 ml/min per 1.73 m2. Median PTH was 48 (interquartile range [IQR], 35-67) pg/ml and FGF23 was 66 (IQR, 52-88) pg/ml. There were 261 composite cardiovascular events, 102 heart failure events, and 179 deaths within the subcohort. The adjusted hazard ratio (HR) per doubling of PTH concentration for cardiovascular events, heart failure, and all-cause mortality were 1.29 (95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.06 to 1.57), 1.32 (95% CI, 0.96 to 1.83), and 1.04 (95% CI, 0.82 to 1.31), respectively. There were significant interactions between PTH and BP arm for both the cardiovascular (P-interaction=0.01) and heart failure (P-interaction=0.004) end points. Participants with a PTH above the median experienced attenuated benefits of intensive BP control on cardiovascular events (adjusted HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.72 to 1.42) compared with participants with a PTH below the median (adjusted HR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.45 to 1.00). FGF23 was not independently associated with any outcome and did not modify the effects of the intervention.ConclusionsSPRINT participants with CKD and a high serum PTH received less cardiovascular protection from intensive BP therapy than participants with a lower serum PTH.

Project description:BackgroundThe purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of additional calcium carbonate treatment on fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels in patients treated with calcitriol.MethodsIn this randomized, open-labeled, and parallel-group study, a total of 30 patients with early chronic kidney disease (CKD) and vitamin D deficiency were randomly assigned to two groups and received interventions for 8 weeks: 1) a combination of calcium carbonate and calcitriol group; and 2) calcitriol only group. The primary outcome was the difference in percentage change of serum FGF23 levels from baseline between the two groups. Secondary end points included the changes in serum levels of calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D) from baseline.ResultsSerum FGF23 levels were more elevated in the combination group than in the calcitriol-alone group. However, both mean change and percentage change in the serum FGF23 levels during the 8-week period were not significantly different between the two groups. Serum calcium level was increased significantly only in the combination treatment group. There was no significant difference in percentage change of serum calcium levels between the two groups. In addition, changes in serum levels of phosphate, 25(OH)D, or PTH were not significantly different between the two groups. In correlation analysis, changes in serum FGF23 levels were positively correlated with changes in serum calcium and phosphate levels, but not with changes in 25(OH)D or PTH levels. No serious adverse events were observed, however, there was one case of mild gastrointestinal discomfort.ConclusionThis study revealed that additional calcium carbonate treatment significantly increased serum FGF23 levels in patients treated with calcitriol, with their synergistic effect in promoting intestinal calcium absorption. This suggests that serum FGF23 levels should be monitored regularly, especially in those who use combination of vitamin D and calcium carbonate from the early stages of CKD.
