OBJECTIVE
No conventional phosphate binder is entirely satisfactory for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Consequently, there is a need for new agents. One such agent is lanthanum carbonate (La). This large-scale study compares the safety of La with
BACKGROUND
Hyperphosphatemia is a common problem in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who are on maintenance hemodialysis (HD) and contributes to the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism and cardiovascular complications. Nicotinamide (NAM) has been shown in some studies to inhibit
Background There is very little evidence relating to the association of herbal medicine with diarrhea and the development of acute kidney injury (AKI). This study reports a case of diarrhea-induced AKI, possibly related to an individual ingesting copious amounts of homemade mixed fruit and herb
To study the metabolic acidosis that occurs during the diarrhea of cholera, we examined the serum anion gap in 21 patients with hypovolemic shock due to Vibrio cholerae infection. Measurements of serum electrolytes, as well as divalent cations and the anionic contributions of serum proteins,
Objective To study the effect of rhubarb combined medicinal activated carbon on levels of serum phosphorus and calcium-phosphorus product, as well as parathyroid hormone in hemodi- alysis patients with hyperphosphatemia. Methods Totally 126 hemodialysis patients with hyperphos- phatemia who had
Bixalomer (Bix) is an amine-functional polymer, non-calcium-containing phosphate (P) binder, and has been clinically available in Japan recently. Bix is expected to cause fewer gastrointestinal (GI) side-effects as compared with sevelamer hydrochloride (SH), because of less expansion of Bix in the
The objective of this article was to assess the safety and efficacy of long-term administration of PA21.
Phase III, open-label, long-term study in 15 sites in Japan.
Japanese hemodialysis patients (N = 161) with hyperphosphatemia aged ≥20 years undergoing stable maintenance hemodialysis 3 times
OBJECTIVE
Limitations of conventional phosphate binders have led to the development of novel non-calcium, non-aluminium agents for use in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The iron-based agent PA21 (stabilized polynuclear iron(III)-oxyhydroxide) has high phosphate binding capacity in
OBJECTIVE
JTT-751 (ferric citrate hydrate) is a novel iron-based phosphate approved in Japan for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in dialysis and nondialysis patients with chronic kidney disease.
METHODS
In this phase 3, multicenter, open-label, dose-adjusted study, we investigated the efficacy
Control of phosphorus accumulation in chronic renal insufficiency is crucial to the prevention of secondary hyperparathyroidism and metastatic calcification. In early renal failure, calcitriol levels are normal and parathyroid hormone levels are elevated. The phosphorus levels are maintained in the
Sucroferric oxyhydroxide (P-TOL® chewable tablets, 250 and 500 mg) is a phosphate binder for oral use; it is composed of polynuclear iron (III)-oxyhydroxide, sucrose, and starches, and is currently indicated for alleviating hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis.
BACKGROUND
Studies indicate that nicotinic acid and related compounds may decrease phosphorus concentrations effectively by reducing the absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. However, the efficacy and safety of oral niacin treatments have only been investigated in a limited number of small-scale
BACKGROUND
Hyperphosphatemia is common in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and associated with mortality and morbidity. We aimed to evaluate the dose-dependent efficacy and safety of PA21 (sucroferric oxyhydroxide), an iron-based phosphate binder, in Japanese hemodialysis patients with
BACKGROUND
Acid-base abnormalities in neonatal diarrheic calves can be assessed by using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation or the simplified strong ion approach which use the anion gap (AG) or the strong ion gap (SIG) to quantify the concentration of unmeasured strong anions such as
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved several new drugs in the last few years. We have summarized a few of these that should be of interest to a primary care physician. These belong to either a new class of drugs or have a better drug profile in terms of ease of administration,
