6This study assessed the pharmacodynamic effects of patiromer on serum potassium in participants on hemodialysis.
The initial intent was to enroll 12-24 adult male and female participants on hemodialysis into the study. Due to significant recruitment challenges, the study was discontinued after six participants were enrolled in the study.
This was an open-label, multiple-dose, adaptive-design study in participants on hemodialysis. Eligible participants on hemodialysis were to remain in the Clinical Research Unit for 2 weeks (Day -7 to Day 8) and were required to consume a potassium, magnesium, calcium and sodium-controlled diet.
15 grams/day (5 grams 3 times daily) administered orally
Inclusion Criteria: Participants on hemodialysis between the ages of 18 and 70 years, with serum potassium levels of at least 5.5 mmol/L Adequately dialyzed (Kt/V ≥ 1.2) Exclusion Criteria: History of bowel obstruction, swallowing disorders, severe gastrointestinal disorders or major gastrointestinal surgery. Severe constipation or irregular bowel habits. Unable to consume or tolerate the study-specific diet.
