Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This was a multiple-dose, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study. Chinese subjects residing in Mainland China with chronic kidney disease (CKD) receiving hemodialysis were randomized in a 3:1 ratio to receive 5 mg intravenous (IV) of etelcalcetide or placebo 3 times a week (TIW) for approximately 4 weeks, with a subsequent follow up period of approximately 4 weeks.

Doses were given at the end of each scheduled hemodialysis session on study days 1 through day 27 and subject participation was complete after day 55 end-of-study (EOS) procedures were performed. Doses were administered TIW for 4 weeks, for a total of 12 doses.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: Time to Maximum Drug Concentration (Tmax) of Plasma Etelcalcetide on Days 1 and 27 [Days 1 and 27; PK blood sampling predialysis, and at 10, 30, 60, 90 min postdose, as well as on Day 2 and 28 between 18 and 30 hours after study drug administration]

      Tmax is the time to maximum drug concentration of plasma etelcalcetide after dosing on Days 1 and 27.

    2. PK: Maximum Observed Drug Concentration (Cmax) of Plasma Etelcalcetide on Days 1 and 27 [Days 1 and 27; PK blood sampling predialysis, and at 10, 30, 60, 90 min postdose, as well as on Day 2 and 28 between 18 and 30 hours after study drug administration]

      Cmax was defined as the maximum observed plasma drug concentration measured between the time of drug administration to the beginning of the next dialysis session.

    3. Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to the Beginning of the Subsequent Hemodialysis Treatment (AUClast) of Plasma Etelcalcetide on Days 1 and 27 [Days 1 and 27; PK blood sampling predialysis, and up to 44-50 hour postdose.at 10, 30, 60, 90 min postdose: Day 2 and 28 between 18 and 30 hours after study drug administration; Day 3 (predialysis) + Day 29]

      AUClast was specifically defined in this study as the area under the concentration time curve measured from the time of drug administration to the beginning of the next dialysis session, following the first and last dose.

    4. Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: Accumulation Ratio Comparing Days 1 and 27 [Days 1 and 27; PK blood sampling predialysis, and up to 44-50 hour postdose.at 10, 30, 60, 90 min postdose: Day 2 and 28 between 18 and 30 hours after study drug administration; Day 3 (predialysis) + Day 29]

      Accumulation ratio, calculated as AUClast day 27/AUClast day 1.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) [Day 1 up to Day 55 (end of study)]

      The severity of each adverse event was assessed using the NCI-CTCAE Version 4.0 according to the following: Grade 1 - Mild: Asymptomatic or mild symptoms; intervention not indicated Grade 2 - Moderate: Minimal, local or noninvasive intervention indicated; limiting age-appropriate instrumental activities of daily living (ADL) Grade 3 - Severe: Medically significant but not life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self-care ADL Grade 4 - Life-threatening Grade 5 - Fatal. A serious AE is an AE that met one or more of the following criteria: Death Life-threatening Required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of an existing hospitalization Resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity A congenital anomaly/birth defect Important medical events that required medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes above.

    2. Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) of Interest [Day 1 up to Day 55 (end of study)]

      Terms were coded with Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) version 21.1. Narrow search criteria used for both standardized MedDRA queries (SMQ) and events of interest (EOI). One preferred term (PT) could match multiple EOIs. Infusion Reaction EOI counts included only those events which had onset day coinciding with study medication infusion and resolved on the same day or the day after onset.

    3. Participants With Clinically-Significant Changes in Electrocardiograms (ECGs) From Baseline to End of Study [Baseline is Day -2; End of Study is Day 55]

      Count of participants who exhibited a clinically significant change in the results of their 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECG) when comparing baseline to end of study ECGs.

    4. Change From Baseline to End of Study in Weight [Day 1 up to Day 55]

      Change from baseline in weight measured at visit.

    5. Change From Baseline to End of Study in Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressures [Baseline Day 1 prior to dialysis; End of Study is Day 55]

      Participants remained seated for at least 10 minutes prior to measurement of predialysis heart rate and blood pressure.

    6. Baseline and Change From Baseline to End of Study in Heart Rate [Baseline Day 1 prior to dialysis; End of Study is Day 55]

      Participants remained seated for at least 10 minutes prior to measurement of predialysis heart rate and blood pressure.

    7. Change From Baseline to End of Study in Calcium [Baseline is Day 1 prior to dialysis; End of Study is Day 55]

      Calcium was tested at a central laboratory.

    8. Change From Baseline to End of Study in Corrected Calcium (cCa) [Baseline is the average of Day -2 and Day 1 prior to dialysis; End of Study is Day 55]

      Total serum calcium was corrected if the serum albumin was < 4 g/dL or 40 g/L, otherwise cCa equals total serum calcium. The correction formula was: Corrected calcium (mg/dL) = Total calcium (mg/dL) + (4 - albumin [g/dL]) * 0.8

    9. Participants With Low Corrected Calcium (cCA) By Category [Timeframes: Days 8, 15, 22, 27, 29, 34, 41, 55]

      The lowest cCA value for each participant is reported. Total serum calcium was corrected if the serum albumin was < 4 g/dL or 40 g/L, otherwise cCa equals total serum calcium. The correction formula was: Corrected calcium (mg/dL) = Total calcium (mg/dL) + (4 - albumin [g/dL]) * 0.8

    10. Baseline and Change From Baseline to End of Study in Serum Albumin [Baseline is the average of Day -2 and Day 1 prior to dialysis; End of Study is Day 55]

      Serum albumin was tested at a central laboratory.

    11. Change From Baseline to End of Study in Serum Phosphorus [Baseline is Day 1 prior to dialysis; End of Study is Day 55]

      Serum phosphorus was tested at a central laboratory.

    12. Participants With Anti-etelcalcetide Antibody at Baseline and Postbaseline [Baseline: Day 1 prior to dialysis. Postbaseline: Days 29 and 55 prior to dialysis]

    Description The severity of each adverse event was assessed using the NCI-CTCAE Version 4.0 according to the following: Grade 1 - Mild: Asymptomatic or mild symptoms; intervention not indicated Grade 2 - Moderate: Minimal, local or noninvasive intervention indicated; limiting age-appropriate instrumental activities of daily living (ADL) Grade 3 - Severe: Medically significant but not life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self-care ADL Grade 4 - Life-threatening Grade 5 - Fatal. A serious AE is an AE that met one or more of the following criteria: Death Life-threatening Required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of an existing hospitalization Resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity A congenital anomaly/birth defect Important medical events that required medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes above.

    Title Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) of Interest
    Description Terms were coded with Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) version 21.1. Narrow search criteria used for both standardized MedDRA queries (SMQ) and events of interest (EOI). One preferred term (PT) could match multiple EOIs. Infusion Reaction EOI counts included only those events which had onset day coinciding with study medication infusion and resolved on the same day or the day after onset.

    More Information

    Certain Agreements

    Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.

    The Clinical Trial Agreement generally does not restrict an investigator's discussion of trial results after completion. The Agreement permits Amgen a limited period of time to review material discussing trial results (typically up to 45 days and possible extension). Amgen may remove confidential information, but authors have final control and approval of publication content. For multicenter studies, the investigator agrees not to publish any results before the first multi-center publication.
