|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NCT00151918 ↗ | Efficacy and Safety of Lanthanum Carbonate and Sevelamer Hydrochloride in Patients Receiving Haemodialysis for End Stage Renal Disease | Completed | Shire | Phase 3 | 2005-01-07 | The purpose of this study is to assess phosphate reduction and control in patients with End Stage Renal Disease treated with either lanthanum carbonate or sevelamer hydrochloride |
| NCT00267514 ↗ | Study to Demonstrate Equivalence of Sevelamer Carbonate Powder and Sevelamer HCl Tablets in Haemodialysis Patients | Completed | Genzyme, a Sanofi Company | Phase 3 | 2006-01-01 | The purpose of this study is to determine if sevelamer carbonate powder is an effective treatment for the control of serum phosphorous levels in patients on dialysis when compared to sevelamer hydrochloride tablets. |
| NCT00268957 ↗ | Study to Compare Sevelamer Carbonate Powder to Sevelamer Hydrochloride Tablets in Patients With CKD on Hemodialysis | Completed | Genzyme, a Sanofi Company | Phase 3 | 2006-01-01 | Approximately 207 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on hemodialysis will be entered into this study at approximately 26 centers in the United States. This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sevelamer carbonate powder dosed once-a-day (QD) with the largest meal compared to sevelamer hydrochloride tablets dosed three-times-per-day (TID) with meals. The total length of participation is approximately 24 weeks. |
| NCT00364000 ↗ | Arterial Stiffness and Calcifications in Haemodialysis Patients on Sevelamer or Calcium Acetate | Withdrawn | Romanian Society of Nephrology | N/A | 2012-01-01 | End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a state of increased arterial stiffness of extensive vessel calcifications, compared with the non-renal population. Both arterial stiffness and arterial calcifications are potent predictors of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in ESRD patients. Several studies have documented the direct relationship between the extent and severity of arterial/coronary calcifications and outcome in dialysis patients. The relationship is strong no matter if arterial calcifications were quantified by electron-beam computed tomography or a radiological calcification score. Calcifications are early and progressive events in these patients. PWV is strongly related to the degree of sonographic determined arterial calcifications and EBCT-derived coronary artery calcium score in chronic kidney disease patients. Calcium-based phosphate binders are associated with progressive coronary artery and aortic calcification, especially when mineral metabolism is not well controlled. According to recent studies, sevelamer hydrochloride is a potent non-calcium-containing phosphate binder, well tolerated in ESRD. Compared with calcium-based phosphate binders, sevelamer is less likely to cause hypercalcemia, low levels of PTH, and progressive coronary and aortic calcification in hemodialysis patients. Moreover, sevelamer has a favorable effect on the lipid profile. Less is known about the relationship between sevelamer treatment and progression of arterial stiffness. To date, there is one single study examining the influence of sevelamer (versus calcium carbonate) on the evolution of arterial stiffness in a very small number (N=15) of haemodialysis patients. These study used the same patients as historical controls, thus being methodologically rather weak. Moreover, the follow-up was quite short - 6 month. The aim of the trial is to to quantify, in a randomized opened-labeled controlled trial the effect of sevelamer hydrochloride on the evolution of arterial stiffness parameters (pulse wave velocity and the augmentation index) in chronic haemodialysis patients and to correlate these parameters with arterial calcification assessed by a previous described radiological score of arterial calcification and echocardiographic parameters (left ventricular hypertrophy, LV dilatation, systolic and diastolic dysfunction). |
| NCT00440648 ↗ | Cross-Over Study of Sevelamer Hydrochloride and Sevelamer Carbonate | Completed | Genzyme, a Sanofi Company | Phase 2 | 2005-03-01 | This is a double-blind, randomized, cross-over study conducted at centers within the United States. The study consists of five periods: an up to two-week Screening Period, a 5-week Run-In Period, two eight-week study treatment periods and a two-week Washout Period. Patients are assigned randomly (1:1) to one of two treatment sequences: sevelamer carbonate for eight weeks followed by sevelamer hydrochloride for eight weeks or sevelamer hydrochloride for eight weeks followed by sevelamer carbonate for eight weeks |
| NCT00441545 ↗ | Head to Head Study Against Sevelamer Hydrochloride | Completed | Shire | Phase 3 | 2007-01-05 | To compare the efficacy of Fosrenol (Lanthanum carbonate) and sevelamer hydrochloride in the reduction of serum phosphorus levels from baseline. |
