Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Cinacalcet hydrochloride, 25 mg once daily, given orally, for 52 weeks. The doses were increased to the next sequential daily dose in the series 25, 50, 75, and 100 mg after at least a 3-week interval if their intact parathyroid hormone was >180 pg/ml at the previous study visit, unless serum calcium was <8.4 mg/dl.
Intervention code [1] 257012 0
Treatment: Drugs
Comparator / control treatment
Results were compared with historical controls who had been treated with traditional therapy alone, including phosphate binders and vitamin D sterols. Historical data were derived from patients who met the same eligibility criteria as trial participants and had undergone ultrasonography twice at an interval of 1 year between 2000 and 2008.
Control group
