Inclusion Criteria

  • Subjects must meet all of the following criteria:
  • 1. Subject has voluntarily signed and dated an informed consent form, approved by
  • an Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC), after
  • the nature of the study has been explained and the subject has had the opportunity
  • to ask questions. The informed consent must be signed before any study-specific
  • procedures are performed.
  • 2. Male or female subjects = 18 years.
  • 3. For entry into the Treatment Period the subject must satisfy the following criteria
  • based on the Screening laboratory values:
  • ? Estimated GFR between 15-60 ml/min/1.73 m2 by simplified 4-variable
  • Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula (this includes a 10%
  • variation in the upper limit of eGFR that will be allowed for the enrollment of
  • subjects, this is to account for variability in the creatinine assay).
  • ? Serum iPTH value between 50-300 pg/mL.
  • ? Serum calcium level 8.0-10.0 mg/dL (2.0-2.5 mmol/L).
  • ? Phosphorous level = 5.2 mg/dL (1.68 mmol/L).
  • ? Serum albumin = 3.0 g/dL (30 g/L).
  • ? Negative serum pregnancy test for female subjects of childbearing potential.
  • 4. For entry into the Treatment Period the subject must satisfy the following criteria
  • based on the Screening echocardiogram:
  • ? For females, LV ejection fraction = 50% and septal wall thickness between
  • 11-17 mm; and,
  • ? For males, LV ejection fraction = 50% and septal wall thickness between
  • 5. If the subject is receiving RAAS inhibitors the dose must have been stable for
  • greater than one month prior to the Screening Period.
  • 6. Subject must have a technically adequate baseline cardiac MRI.
  • 7. If female, subject is not breast feeding or is not pregnant (verified by negative
  • pregnancy test prior to the Treatment Period); or is not of childbearing potential,
  • defined as postmenopausal for at least one year or surgically sterile (bilateral tubal
  • ligation, bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy); or is of childbearing potential
  • and practicing one of the following methods of birth control:
  • ? Double-barrier method (any two of the following: condoms, contraceptive
  • sponge, diaphragm, vaginal ring with spermicidal jellies or creams, or
  • intrauterine device [IUD])
  • ? Hormonal contraceptives (oral, parenteral, or transdermal) for at least
  • three months prior to and during study drug administration
  • ? Maintains a monogamous relationship with a vasectomized partner
  • ? Total abstinence from sexual intercourse during the study (minimum
  • one complete menstrual cycle prior to study start)
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
  • F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range
  • F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
  • F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Exclusion Criteria

  • 2. Subject has a history of an allergic reaction or significant sensitivity to paricalcitol
  • or to drugs similar to the study drug (i.e., vitamin D or vitamin D related
  • compounds).
  • 3. Pregnant (confirmed by screening pregnancy test) or lactating females.
  • 4. Subject is expected to initiate renal replacement therapy within one year.
  • 5. Subject is expected to receive an increased dose of RAAS inhibitor (ACEi, ARB
  • or aldosterone inhibitor) during the course of the study.
  • 6. Subject has clinically significant coronary artery disease (CAD) within 3 months
  • prior to the Screening Period, defined as one of the following:
  • ? Hospitalization for MI or unstable angina; or
  • ? New onset angina with positive functional study or coronary angiogram
  • revealing stenosis; or
  • ? Coronary revascularization procedure.
  • 7. Subject has major cardiac valve abnormality linked with LVH and/or diastolic
  • dysfunction, defined as one of the following:
  • ? Aortic valve area = 1.5 cm2 or a mean gradient of > 20 mm Hg; or
  • ? Regurgitation lesions; more than moderate mitral regurgitation or more than
  • moderate aortic regurgitation.
  • 8. Subject has asymmetric septal hypertrophy defined as septal wall
  • thickness/posterior wall thickness ratio > 1.5 based on screening echocardiogram.
  • 9. Subject has had a severe cerebrovascular accident (CVA) within last 3 months
  • (e.g. hemorrhagic) prior to screening.
  • 10. Full remission from a malignancy for less than one year except completely excised

  • pheochromocytoma.
  • 16. Subject is taking calcitonin, bisphosphonates, cinacalcet, glucocorticoids (except
  • topical or inhaled glucocorticoids), or other drugs that may affect calcium or bone
  • metabolism, other than aluminum, calcium and non-calcium containing phosphate
  • binders or female subjects on stable (same dose and product for three months)
  • estrogen and/or progestin therapy.
  • 17. Subject is currently receiving immunosuppressant therapy and/or high doses
