Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

To demonstrate the AMG 223 will produce a statistically significant reduction in serum phosphorus compared with placebo over a 3 week treatment period in subjects with CKD receiving dialysis
TREATMENT PERIOD
To compare the effects of 2g AMG 223 and 2g Renagel® on 24 hour urinary phosphorous excretion after multiple doses in healthy volunteers.
Including the 28-day Screening period, the 15-day residency period, and the follow-up on Day 15 (one week after discharge from the clinical research unit), the maximum subject participation is approximately 50 days.

Secondary Endpoints

To describe a dose response for AMG 223
TREATMENT PERIOD
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMG 223
ENTIRE STUDY
To compare the effects of 2g AMG 223 and 2g Renagel® on 24 hour fecal phosphorous excretion after multiple doses in healthy volunteers.
Including the 28-day Screening period, the 15-day residency period, and the follow-up on Day 15 (one week after discharge from the clinical research unit), the maximum subject participation is approximately 50 days.

Frequently asked questions about AMG 223

What is AMG 223 used for?

AMG 223 is an investigational small molecule being studied for use in End Stage Renal Disease and Chronic Kidney Disease with hyperphosphatemia, as well as in Healthy Volunteers. It is being developed by Amgen Inc. (NASDAQ: AMGN) and is currently in Phase 2 clinical development.

What does AMG 223 target?

AMG 223 is a small molecule being developed for nephrology indications, specifically for hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease. Its molecular target has not been disclosed in available information, so its precise mechanism of action is not specified.

Who makes AMG 223?

AMG 223 is being developed by Amgen Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on NASDAQ under the ticker AMGN. The drug is currently in Phase 2 clinical trials for End Stage Renal Disease and related conditions.

What phase is AMG 223 in?

AMG 223 is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed one Phase 2 trial and one Phase 1 trial. The drug is investigational and has not been approved by regulatory authorities for any indication.

What clinical trials is AMG 223 in?

AMG 223 has been studied in two completed trials. NCT00530114 was a Phase 2 study in 167 subjects with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis with hyperphosphatemia. NCT00756860 was a Phase 1 study in 66 healthy volunteers comparing AMG 223 to sevelamer HCL.

Is AMG 223 the same as sevelamer?

AMG 223 is not the same as sevelamer. In a Phase 1 trial, AMG 223 was compared directly against sevelamer HCL (Renagel) to evaluate their effects in healthy volunteers. AMG 223 is a separate investigational compound being developed by Amgen.
