GroupInterventionDescription
Lanthanum carbonateLanthanum carbonateStart at a dose of 750 mg/day, and adjust it to lower serum phosphate concentration \<4.5 mg/dL. Maximum dose is 1,500 mg/day. For patients with calcium carbonate at inclusion, calcium carbonate will be replaced with lanthanum carbonate of 750 mg/day.
Calcium carbonateCalcium CarbonateStart at a dose of 1,500 mg/day, and adjust it to lower serum phosphate concentration \<4.5 mg/dL. Maximum dose is 3,000 mg/day.
