A Phase 2 Study of an Oral Vitamin D Compound (DP001) in Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Patients on Hemodialysis (2MD-7H-2B)

August 15, 2017 updated by: Deltanoid Pharmaceuticals

A Phase 2B, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Proof-of-concept Study of an Oral Vitamin D Compound (DP001) in Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Patients on Hemodialysis

The goal of this study is to test a new vitamin D compound for its ability to reduce parathyroid hormone levels in patients who are on hemodialysis.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the vitamin D analog 2-methylene-19-nor-20S-1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (DP001) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The effect of 12 weeks of oral administration of DP001 on serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels will be evaluated in ESRD patients who have secondary hyperparathyroidism.
