Repeated-dose Safety, Efficacy, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic of CTAP101, Immediate-release Calcifediol, High-dose Cholecalciferol, and Paricalcitol Plus Low-dose Cholecalciferol in Patients With Secondary Hyperparathyroidism, Chronic Kidney Disease 3-4 and Vitamin D Insufficiency

This is an interventional treatment trial for Secondary Hyperparathyroidism Due to Renal Causes Read More

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Be at least 18 years of age.
2. Have stage 3 or 4 CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] of ≥15 to <60 millilter per minute per 1.73 meter square (mL/min/1.73 m2) using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation).

3. Be without any disease state or physical condition that might impair evaluation of safety and efficacy or which, in the Investigator's opinion, would interfere with study participation, including:

   1. Serum albumin ≤ 3.0 (grams per deciliter (g/dL);
   2. Serum transaminase (alanine transaminase, glutamic pyruvic transaminase, aspartate aminotransferase or glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase) > 2.5 times the upper limit of normal at screening; and,
   3. Urinary albumin excretion ≤3000 microgram per milligram (μg/mg) creatinine.

4. Exhibit during the initial screening visit:

   1. Plasma intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) ≥70 picogram per milliliter (pg/mL) and <400 pg/mL if receiving calcitriol or other 1α- hydroxylated vitamin D analog (paricalcitol or doxercalciferol); or
   2. Plasma iPTH ≥100 pg/mL and <500 pg/mL if not receiving calcitriol or other 1α- hydroxylated vitamin D analog; and,
   3. Serum total 25-hydroxyvitamin D <30 nanogram per milliliter (ng/mL).
5. If taking calcitriol, other 1α-hydroxylated vitamin D analog, or vitamin D supplementation, must forgo treatment with these non-study agents for the duration of the study and undergo a 4-week washout period.

6. Exhibit after the 4-week washout period (if required):

   1. Plasma iPTH ≥100 pg/mL and <500 pg/mL;
   2. Corrected serum calcium <9.8 mg/dL; (corrected for serum albumin)
   3. Serum total 25-hydroxyvitamin D <30 nanogram per milliliter (ng/mL); and,
   4. Serum phosphorus <5.5 milligram per deciliter (mg/dL).
7. If taking more than 1,500 milligram per day (mg/day) of elemental calcium, reduce calcium use (to approximately 1,000 to ≤1,500 mg/day) for the duration of the study.
8. Willing and able to comply with study instructions and commit to all clinic visits for the duration of the study.
9. Female subjects of childbearing potential must be neither pregnant nor lactating and must have negative blood pregnancy tests at the first screening visit.
10. All female subjects of childbearing potential and male subjects with female partners of childbearing potential must agree to use effective contraception (implants, injectables, combined oral contraceptives, intrauterine device, sexual abstinence, vasectomy or vasectomized partner) for the duration of the study.
11. Be able to read, understand and sign the subject Informed Consent Form (ICF) or have a legal authorized representative (LAR) sign the ICF.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. History of or planned kidney transplant or parathyroidectomy
2. History (prior 3 months) of corrected serum calcium ≥9.8 mg/dL or serum phosphorus ≥5.5 mg/dL if not receiving calcitriol or other 1α-hydroxylated vitamin D analog.
3. Need for phosphate binders to maintain the serum phosphate < 5.5 mg/dL or use of phosphate binders within 4 weeks prior to screening
4. Use of calcimimetic therapy (cinacalcet or etelcalcetide) within 12 weeks of screening.
5. Receipt of bisphosphonate therapy or other bone modifying treatment within 6 months prior to enrollment.
6. Known previous or concomitant serious illness or medical condition, such as malignancy, human immunodeficiency virus, significant gastrointestinal or hepatic disease, intestinal malabsorption disorder, hepatitis or cardiovascular event that in the opinion of the Investigator may worsen or reduce life expectancy, and/or interfere with participation in the study.
7. History of neurological/psychiatric disorder, including psychotic disorder or dementia, or any reason which, in the opinion of the Investigator makes adherence to a treatment or follow-up schedule unlikely.
8. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to any of the constituents of the study drugs.
9. Currently participating in, or has participated in, an interventional/investigational study within 30 days prior to study screening.
