GroupInterventionDescription
EtelcalcetideEtelcalcetideParticipants received etelcalcetide three times a week (TIW) administered by intravenous bolus injection at the end of each hemodialysis session for 12 weeks. The starting dose was 5 mg and may have been titrated every 4 weeks based on the preceding serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) and corrected calcium (cCa) levels to a maximum dose of 20 mg per hemodialysis session in order to achieve the targeted PTH range while maintaining serum calcium within an acceptable range.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent Change From Baseline in Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) During the Efficacy PeriodBaseline and the efficacy period, defined as from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug (approximately days 68 - 85 for participants who completed 12 weeks of treatment)

Baseline was defined as the average of 3 predialysis PTH results obtained within 3 weeks of and prior to the first dose of study drug. The efficacy period (defined as the period from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug) value was the mean of the prehemodialysis values obtained during that period.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With ≥ 30% Reduction in PTH From Baseline During the Efficacy PeriodBaseline and the efficacy period, defined as from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug (approximately days 68 - 85 for participants who completed 12 weeks of treatment)

The efficacy period (defined as the period from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug) value was the mean of the prehemodialysis values obtained during that period.

Percentage of Participants With PTH ≤ 300 pg/mL During the Efficacy PeriodThe efficacy period, defined as from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug (approximately days 68 - 85 for participants who completed 12 weeks of treatment)

The efficacy period (defined as the period from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug) value was the mean of the prehemodialysis values obtained during that period.

Percent Change From Baseline in Corrected Calcium During the Efficacy PeriodBaseline and the efficacy period, defined as from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug (approximately days 68 - 85 for participants who completed 12 weeks of treatment)

Baseline was defined as the average of 3 predialysis PTH results obtained within 3 weeks of and prior to the first dose of study drug. The efficacy period (defined as the period from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug) value was the mean of the prehemodialysis values obtained during that period.

Percent Change From Baseline in Phosphorus During the Efficacy PeriodBaseline and the efficacy period, defined as from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug (approximately days 68 - 85 for participants who completed 12 weeks of treatment)

Baseline was defined as the average of 3 predialysis PTH results obtained within 3 weeks of and prior to the first dose of study drug. The efficacy period (defined as the period from 14 days prior to and 3 days after the last dose of study drug) value was the mean of the prehemodialysis values obtained during that period.
