研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of patiromer (investigational drug) in the treatment of hyperkalemia (high serum potassium). The study also evaluated the effect of withdrawing patiromer treatment and assessed whether chronic treatment with patiromer prevented the recurrence of hyperkalemia. The safety of patiromer treatment was also evaluated.
详细描述
There were two parts in the study, Part A and Part B.
Part A was an assessment of 4 weeks of dosing with patiromer in the treatment of hyperkalemia; Part B was a randomized, placebo-controlled, 8-week assessment of the withdrawal of patiromer in participants with a baseline serum potassium at the beginning of Part A ≥ 5.5 mEq/L who responded to the 4 weeks of treatment with patiromer during Part A.
All participants received patiromer during Part A; Part B participants were randomized to continue patiromer or switch to placebo. Total study participation was up to 14 weeks (including up to 2 weeks of follow up).
The dose of patiromer could be titrated based on participant's serum potassium response.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Serum Potassium From Part A Baseline to Part A Week 4
时间窗: Part A Baseline to Part A Week 4
The primary analysis endpoint is the change from Baseline at Week 4. The estimate of the change at Week 4 is from a repeated measures model, which includes data from Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4. The analysis includes all intent to treat participants who had a serum potassium result at baseline and at least one weekly post-baseline visit (i.e. Part A Week 1 or later) and excludes six participants who had no result collected after Day 3).
Change in Serum Potassium From Part B Baseline
时间窗: Part B Baseline to Part B Week 4 or first local laboratory serum potassium < 3.8 mEq/L or ≥ 5.5 mEq/L
Change in Serum Potassium from Part B Baseline to either: Part B Week 4 visit, if the participant's serum potassium remained ≥ 3.8 mEq/L and \< 5.5 mEq/L up to the Part B Week 4 visit or the earliest Part B visit at which the participant's serum potassium was \< 3.8 mEq/L or ≥ 5.5 mEq/L.
次要结局
- Proportion of Participants With Serum Potassium Levels in the Target Range of 3.8 to < 5.1 mEq/L at Part A Week 4(Week 4)
- Proportion of Participants With Serum Potassium That Was ≥ 5.5 mEq/L in Part B(Part B Baseline to Part B Week 8)
- Proportion of Participants With Serum Potassium ≥ 5.1 mEq/L in Part B(Part B Baseline to Part B Week 8)
