In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the adult population is estimated to 10%. CKD increases risk of bone fractures, cardiovascular disease and death. The main role of parathyroid hormone (PTH) is to regulate mineral metabolism, including the calcium and phosphate homeostasis. PTH increases as the kidney function declines, and at end stage kidney disease almost all patients have disturbances in the mineral metabolism. Decreasing bone mineral density is associated with risk of fracture, both in background population and in patients with CKD. For decades, treatment with activated vitamin D, phosphate binders, and calcium supplements has been used for patients with chronic kidney disease and elevated parathyroid hormone, but treatment targets have varied greatly over the years, reflecting the lack of randomized clinical trials with clinical important end points.
