2.Male or female patients = 2 years of age. Patients have to be able to swallow size 4 capsules twice daily, or use a gastric tube that allows for administration of size 4 capsules.
3.A diagnosis of PH (as determined by standard diagnostic methods).
4.Patient should be on a stable dialysis regimen for at least two weeks before baseline.
5.Plasma oxalate =40 micromole/L prior to the dialysis session.
6.Patients receiving vitamin B6 must be receiving a stable dose for at least 3 months prior to screening and must remain on the stable dose during the study. Patients not receiving vitamin B6 at study entry must be willing to refrain from initiating vitamin B6 during study participation.
