Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Evaluate Safety, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetics of Paricalcitol For Treatment of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in Pediatric Participants With Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) (NCT NCT04064827)

NCT ID: NCT04064827

Last Updated: 2026-06-15

Results Overview

Positive response is defined as having two consecutive \>= 30% reductions from baseline in intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) or two consecutive iPTH values in the target range between 150 picograms (pg)/milliliters (mL) to 300 pg/mL (16.5-33.0 picomole\[pmol\]/L).
