  Purpose

This is a Phase 3, randomised, active controlled, multicentre study to investigate the safety and efficacy of PA21, a phosphate binder, for control of hyperphosphatemia in dialysis patients. The primary objective is to establish the efficacy of PA21 for lowering phosphate levels in these patients.


Condition Intervention Phase
Chronic Kidney Disease Requiring Chronic Dialysis
Drug: PA21 (2.5g tablet)
Drug: Sevelamer carbonate
Drug: PA21-1 (1.25g tablet)
Phase 3

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: An Open-label, Randomised, Active-controlled, Parallel Group, Multicentre, Phase 3 Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of PA21 Compared With Sevelamer Carbonate Followed by a Randomised Comparison of PA21 Maintenance Dose Versus PA21-Low Dose in Dialysis Patients With Hyperphosphataemia
