Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The Percentage of Subjects Who Met the Triple Efficacy Endpoint Criteria at Week 24.Week 24 of dosing

The triple efficacy endpoint criteria were defined as at least a 50% reduction from the baseline in oral calcium dose and at least a 50% reduction from the baseline in active vitamin D dose and an albumin-corrected total serum calcium concentration that was maintained or normalized compared to the baseline value (≥ 7.5 mg/dL) and did not exceed the upper limit of the laboratory normal range. The analysis of primary efficacy endpoint was based on investigator prescribed data.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of Subjects Who Achieved Independence From Active Vitamin D and an Oral Calcium Dose of ≤ 500 mg/Day at Week 24.24 Weeks

Subjects Who Achieved Independence from Active Vitamin D Usage and with Calcium Dose of 500 mg/day or less. This analysis was based on Investigator Prescribed Data.

Percentage of Subjects With Any Clinical Symptoms of Hypocalcemia During Weeks 16-24.8 Weeks

Clinical symptoms were a selected group of adverse events that occurred during study weeks 16 through 24. The group of terms were defined by key opinion leaders and documented in study protocol.

Percentage Changes From Baseline in Daily Calcium Dose at Week 24.24 Weeks
