An open-label phase 2 trial to assess the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of lanthanum carbonate in hyperphosphatemic children and adolescents with chronic kidney disease undergoing dialysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study assessed the efficacy, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of lanthanum carbonate (LC) in hyperphosphatemic children and adolescents with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing dialysis.

Methods

This was a three-part, multicenter, open-label study of LC (oral powder formulation) in patients 10 to < 18 years old with CKD undergoing dialysis. In part 1, the single-dose PK of LC (500 mg, ≤12 years old; 1000 mg, > 12 years old) were summarized. In part 2, patients received calcium carbonate (CC [chewable tablet formulation]) (1500-6500 mg [total daily dose]) followed by LC (powder formulation) (1500-3000 mg [total daily dose]), or LC only (1500-3000 mg [total daily dose]), each for 8 weeks. During part 3, patients received LC (1500-3000 mg [total daily dose]) for up to 6 months. The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of LC-treated patients achieving serum phosphorus control after 8 weeks during parts 2 and/or 3, defined as: ≤1.94 mmol/L, < 12 years old; ≤1.78 mmol/L, ≥12 years old. Secondary efficacy endpoints included: the proportion of patients who achieved serum phosphorus control after 8 weeks of treatment with CC followed by 8 weeks of treatment with LC (with a washout period between treatments). The safety of LC and CC was also evaluated.

Results

In part 1, 20 patients received a single dose of LC. In part 2, 53 and 51 patients were treated with CC and LC for 8 weeks, respectively. During part 3, 42 patients received LC for up to 6 months. Most patients were white and male. For the primary efficacy endpoint, 50% (17/34) of patients who received LC for 8 weeks during parts 2 and/or 3 achieved serum phosphorus control. After 8 weeks of treatment with CC, 58.8% of patients achieved serum phosphorus control; after a subsequent washout period and 8 weeks of treatment with LC, 70.6% of patients achieved serum phosphorus control. T_max and t_1/2 occurred within 3-8 h and ~ 19 h, respectively; however, variability was observed. LC and CC were generally well tolerated.

Conclusions

These data support the use of LC to manage hyperphosphatemia in pediatric patients with CKD undergoing dialysis.

Project description:ImportanceAmong patients with hyperphosphatemia undergoing dialysis, it is unclear whether non-calcium-based phosphate binders are more effective than calcium-based binders for reducing cardiovascular events.ObjectiveTo determine whether lanthanum carbonate reduces cardiovascular events compared with calcium carbonate in patients with hyperphosphatemia at risk of vascular calcification undergoing hemodialysis.Design, setting, and participantsOpen-label, randomized, parallel-group clinical trial with blinded end point adjudication performed in 2374 patients with chronic kidney disease from 273 hemodialysis facilities in Japan. Eligible patients had hyperphosphatemia and 1 or more risk factors for vascular calcification (ie, ≥65 years, postmenopausal, diabetes). Enrollment occurred from November 2011 to July 2014; follow-up ended June 2018.InterventionsPatients were randomized to receive either lanthanum carbonate (n = 1154) or calcium carbonate (n = 1155) and titrated to achieve serum phosphate levels of between 3.5 mg/dL and 6.0 mg/dL.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was a composite cardiovascular event (cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction or stroke, unstable angina, transient ischemic attack, or hospitalization for heart failure or ventricular arrhythmia). Secondary outcomes included overall survival, secondary hyperparathyroidism-free survival, hip fracture-free survival, and adverse events.ResultsAmong 2309 randomized patients (median age, 69 years; 40.5% women), 1851 (80.2%) completed the trial. After a median follow-up of 3.16 years, cardiovascular events occurred in 147 of 1063 patients in the lanthanum calcium group and 134 of 1072 patients in the calcium carbonate group (incidence rate, 4.80 vs 4.30 per 100 person-years; difference 0.50 per 100 person-years [95% CI, -0.57 to 1.56]; hazard ratio [HR], 1.11 [95%, CI, 0.88 to 1.41], P = .37). There were no significant differences in all-cause death (difference, 0.43 per 100 person-years [95% CI, -0.63 to 1.49]; HR, 1.10 [95% CI, 0.88 to 1.37]; P = .42) or hip fracture (difference, 0.10 per 100 person-years [95% CI, -0.26 to 0.47]; HR, 1.21 [95% CI, 0.62 to 2.35]; P = .58). The lanthanum carbonate group had an increased risk of cardiovascular death (difference, 0.61 per 100 person-years [95% CI, 0.02 to 1.21]; HR, 1.51 [95% CI, 1.01 to 2.27]; P = .045) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (difference, 1.34 [95% CI, 0.49 to 2.19]; HR, 1.62 [95% CI, 1.19 to 2.20]; P = .002). Adverse events occurred in 282 (25.7%) in the lanthanum carbonate group and 259 (23.4%) in the calcium carbonate groups.Conclusions and relevanceAmong patients undergoing hemodialysis with hyperphosphatemia and at least 1 vascular calcification risk factor, treatment of hyperphosphatemia with lanthanum carbonate compared with calcium carbonate did not result in a significant difference in composite cardiovascular events. However, the event rate was low, and the findings may not apply to patients at higher risk.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01578200; UMIN Clinical Trial Registry Identifier: UMIN000006815.
