The effectiveness of cinacalcet: a randomized, open label study in chronic hemodialysis patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is associated with high incidences of cardiovascular disease, bone fracture, and mortality. This study was conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of cinacalcet treatment on chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) markers in chronic hemodialysis patients with severe SHPT. METHODS:In phase 1, 30 adult HD patients were randomized to cinacalcet or control groups for 12?weeks to explore the achievement of >30% reduction of iPTH. In phase 2, 45 patients were participated to further explore the effect of cinacalcet on CKD-MBD parameters for 24-week follow up and 12 additional weeks after cinacalcet discontinuation. RESULTS:In phase 1, the baseline serum iPTH levels were not different [1374 (955, 1639) pg/mL in the control group vs. 1191 (1005, 1884) pg/mL in the cinacalcet group], the percentage of patients achieving iPTH target were significantly higher in the treatment group [80% vs. 13%, p?=?.001]. In phase 2, the significant reductions of iPTH, FGF-23, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b, and slightly decreased size of parathyroid gland and stabilized vascular calcification were observed at 24-week follow up and markedly rebounded after discontinuation of cinacalcet. CONCLUSIONS:The effectiveness of cinacalcet were still obviously demonstrated even in chronic HD patients with severe SHPT. In addition, the improvements of bone markers and FGF-23, and stabilization of vascular calcification were observed. Therefore, cinacalcet can provide salutary effects on CKD-MBD in severe SHPT and might be an initially effective PTH-lowering therapy prior to surgical parathyroidectomy as well as an alternative treatment in the patients unsuitable for surgery.

Project description:Background and objectivesDirect comparison of cinacalcet and vitamin D analogs as monotherapies to lower parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels has not been undertaken.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsThis was a prospective, multicenter, phase 4, randomized, open-label study that enrolled participants from 2010 to 2012. Adult participants (n=312) on hemodialysis with PTH >450 pg/ml were randomized 1:1 to 12 months of treatment with either cinacalcet (n=155) or vitamin D analogs (n=157) to evaluate the mean percentage change in plasma PTH level (primary end point) and the proportion of participants achieving plasma PTH <300 pg/ml or a ≥30% decrease in PTH (secondary end points). A preplanned analysis to determine whether there were important region-by-treatment interactions was also undertaken.ResultsBaseline mean PTH was 846 pg/ml (n=155) for cinacalcet and 816 pg/ml (n=157) for vitamin D analog therapy. The mean (95% confidence interval) percentage change from baseline in PTH was -12.1% (-20.0% to -4.1%) in the cinacalcet arm and -7.0% (-14.9% to 0.8%) in the vitamin D analog arm, a difference of -5.0% (-15.4% to 5.4%) (P=0.35). Similarly, there was no difference in achievement of secondary efficacy end points between arms (19.4% and 15.3% of participants with PTH≤300 pg/ml and 42.6% and 33.8% of participants had a PTH reduction >30% in the cinacalcet and vitamin D analog arms, respectively). A prespecified analysis revealed a large treatment-by-region interaction, with nominally greater response to cinacalcet compared with vitamin D analogs in non-United States participants (US versus non-US participants, P<0.001). Hypocalcemia was more common in the cinacalcet arm, whereas hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia occurred more often in the vitamin D analog arm.ConclusionsParticipants had similar modest reductions in PTH with either cinacalcet or vitamin D analog monotherapy over 52 weeks of treatment, but effects varied by region. Treatments differed with regard to effect on calcium and phosphorus levels.
