Change From Baseline (Week 0) to Week 2 in Serum Phosphorus
Baseline, Week 2

Full analysis set for fixed dose period (FAS-FDP) participants were analyzed according to their randomized treatment. The change in serum phosphorus (mg/dL) from baseline to week 2 was calculated.

Treatment - Emergent Adverse Events (AEs)
Up to 32 weeks (up to 4 weeks washout period, 2 weeks FDP and 26 weeks DTP)

A serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect. AEs from the time of signing the informed consent through the end of the study for all participants. SAEs occurring during the 15 days following study completion or early termination were also to be collected.

Frequently asked questions about sevelamer carbonate, sevelamer

What is sevelamer carbonate used for?

Sevelamer carbonate is used to treat hyperphosphatemia, meaning elevated phosphate levels, in people with chronic kidney disease. It is studied in patients with chronic kidney disease, including those on hemodialysis and those not on dialysis, as well as in pediatric patients with chronic kidney disease and hyperphosphatemia.

Who makes sevelamer carbonate?

Sevelamer carbonate is developed by Sanofi, which trades under the ticker SNY. Sanofi is the company associated with the clinical development program for this small molecule in nephrology.

What phase is sevelamer carbonate in?

Sevelamer carbonate is in Phase 3 development. Its clinical program includes Phase 3 trials in hyperphosphatemia and chronic kidney disease, along with a completed Phase 2 trial in pediatric patients. It is an investigational therapy in the studies described here.

What clinical trials is sevelamer carbonate in?

Sevelamer carbonate has been studied in completed trials including NCT03001011 in China, NCT02332811 in Russia, NCT01736150 in China, and the pediatric Phase 2 trial NCT01574326 across the United States, France, Germany, Lithuania, and Poland. These trials enrolled patients with hyperphosphatemia, chronic kidney disease, and renal failure.

Is sevelamer carbonate the same as sevelamer hydrochloride?

Sevelamer carbonate and sevelamer hydrochloride are related forms of sevelamer. Sevelamer carbonate is also known as sevelamer, Sevelamer Carbonate (GZ419831), and Sevelamer carbonate (Renvela). Searches for sevelamer, sevelamer carbonate 800mg, and Renvela refer to this same drug asset.

What is sevelamer carbonate used for in chronic kidney disease?

In chronic kidney disease, sevelamer carbonate is used to manage hyperphosphatemia, the elevated blood phosphate that commonly accompanies reduced kidney function. Trials have evaluated it in patients on hemodialysis and in patients not on dialysis, with phosphate control as the focus of treatment.
