The Effectiveness and Safety of Calcium Carbonate in Chronic Kidney Disease With Normophosphatemia

NCT03550534

RandomizedParallel-groupQuadruple-blindPrevention

Summary

Background: Patient with stage 3 or 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) usually has normal level of serum phosphate, due to increased serum fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) level that resulted in increased phosphate urine excretion. On the other hand, serum FGF23 elevation was related to CKD progression, vascular calcification, cardiomegaly, and mortality. This double blind, randomized controlled trial study was conducted to evaluate effectiveness and safety of calcium carbonate administration in stage 3 or 4 CKD patients with normophosphatemia. Hypothesis: Calcium carbonate administration is effective and safe in chronic kidney disease (CKD) with normophosphatemia.
