Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Initially receive 1 tablet of study medication (cinacalcet or placebo) once daily. Possible sequential dose titrations are 30, 60, 90, 120, 180mg cinacalcet or placebo) daily. The titration phase was 12 weeks and the efficacy assessment phase was 6 weeks.
Experimental: cinacalcet (AMG 073)
