Elevated serum phosphorus, calcium, and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels are associated with cardiovascular disease in chronic renal disease. This study evaluated the effects of sucroferric oxyhydroxide (PA21), a new iron-based phosphate binder, versus lanthanum carbonate (La) and sevelamer carbonate (Se), on serum FGF23, phosphorus, calcium, and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) concentrations, and the development of vascular calcification in adenine-induced chronic renal failure (CRF) rats. After induction of CRF, renal function was significantly impaired in all groups: uremic rats developed severe hyperphosphatemia, and serum iPTH increased significantly. All uremic rats (except controls) then received phosphate binders for 4 weeks. Hyperphosphatemia and increased serum iPTH were controlled to a similar extent in all phosphate binder-treatment groups. Only sucroferric oxyhydroxide was associated with significantly decreased FGF23. Vascular calcifications of the thoracic aorta were decreased by all three phosphate binders. Calcifications were better prevented at the superior part of the thoracic and abdominal aorta in the PA21 treated rats. In adenine-induced CRF rats, sucroferric oxyhydroxide was as effective as La and Se in controlling hyperphosphatemia, secondary hyperparathyroidism, and vascular calcifications. The role of FGF23 in calcification remains to be confirmed.

Abstract Background and Aims The treatment of hyperphosphatemia is the main goal in the treatment of mineral and bone disorders in patients with CKD. However, the results of the correction of hyperphosphatemia remain unsatisfactory. This is due to the absence of effective and safe medicines. In our prospective randomized controlled trial were evaluated the effects of a 16-week treatment with new phosphate binder - sucroferric oxyhydroxide and a sevelamer carbonate (“sevelamer”) on CKD-MBD parameters in patients on hemodialysis with hyperphosphatemia. Method After a 2-4-week washout period from previous phosphate binders, 50 stable patients with hyperphosphatemia (P > 5.5 mg / dl) were randomized at a 1: 1 ratio to receive sucroferric oxyhydroxide (n = 25) or sevelamer (n = 25) for treatment up to 16 weeks. In all patients were evaluated levels of P, Ca, PTH, ferritin, transferrin saturation, Hb, FGF-23, soluble Klotho, CRP - monthly. The dose of both medications was adjusted according to serum phosphate. Results Phosphate binder therapy of sucroferric oxyhydroxide was associated with a significant decrease in serum phosphate from 6.8 ± 1.5 to 5.27 ± 0.99 mg/dl (p <0.01); however, treatment with sevelamer did not decrease in the level of P: 6.32 ± 1.5 vs 6.35 ± 1.9 mgl/dl. The number of tablets was lower in the sucroferric oxyhydroxide group (mean ± SD 2.0 ± 1.5 tablets / day) compared with sevelamer (mean ± SD 6.1 ± 3.2 tablets / day). The average intact fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23), PTH, transferrin saturation and ferritin did not significantly change in both groups. Klotho changed only in patients received sucroferric oxyhydroxide, an increase of 25% (р < 0.05) and we also noted in this group an increase in Hb level from 105.6 ± 15.7 to 111.9 ± 22.3 g/l (p <0.05) by the end of the study, simultaneously level of CRP significantly decreased (P < 0.01) by 50% . During the study, 6 patients in the group with sucroferric oxyhydroxide and 5 in the sevelamer group dropped out due to dyspeptic symptoms. Conclusion Sucroferric oxyhydroxide is a new effective phosphate binder with a comparable safety profile to a sevelamer. Treatment with this drug can significantly increase the level of Hb, and Klotho and reduce level of inflammation.

Both calcium-containing and noncalcium-containing phosphate binders can increase gastrointestinal calcium absorption. Previously, we observed that lanthanum carbonate administration to rats with renal failure is not associated with increased calciuria. Additionally, lanthanum carbonate treatment in dialysis patients has been associated with a less pronounced initial decrease in serum parathyroid hormone compared with other phosphate binders. For 8 days, male Wistar rats received a diet supplemented with 2% lanthanum carbonate, 2% sevelamer, 2% calcium carbonate, or 2% cellulose. Calciuria was found to be increased in animals with normal renal function treated with sevelamer or calcium carbonate but not with lanthanum carbonate. In animals with renal failure, cumulative calcium excretion showed similar results. In rats with normal renal function, serum ionized calcium levels were increased after 2 days of treatment with sevelamer, while calcium carbonate showed a smaller increase. Lanthanum carbonate did not induce differences. In animals with renal failure, no differences were found between sevelamer-treated, calcium carbonate-treated, and control groups. Lanthanum carbonate, however, induced lower ionized calcium levels within 2 days of treatment. These results were confirmed in normal human volunteers, who showed lower net calcium absorption after a single dose of lanthanum carbonate compared with sevelamer carbonate. In conclusion, these two noncalcium-containing phosphate-binding agents showed a differential effect on gastrointestinal calcium absorption. These findings may help to improve the management of calcium balance in patients with renal failure, including concomitant use of vitamin D.

BackgroundCombination therapy with multiple phosphate binders is prescribed to reduce elevated serum phosphorus (sP) concentrations among patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Sucroferric oxyhydroxide (SO), an iron-based phosphate binder, has demonstrated efficacy at reducing sP while also being associated with a low pill burden. Whereas the effects of SO monotherapy have been well characterized in clinical trials and observational cohorts, little is known about the effects of SO-containing combination therapy.MethodsPatients on hemodialysis (N=234) at Fresenius Kidney Care (FKC) who received ≥120 days of uninterrupted phosphate binder combination therapy with SO were included in this retrospective study. Patient data were censored after SO discontinuation, end of care at FKC, or completion of 12 months of follow-up. Quarterly (Q) changes in phosphate binder pill burden, mean sP, and proportion of patients achieving National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (NKF-KDOQI)–recommended sP levels (≤5.5 mg/dl) were compared between baseline (−Q1) and follow-up (Q1–Q4).ResultsPhosphate binder combination therapy with SO was associated with significant increase in the proportion of patients with sP ≤5.5 mg/dl (from 19% at baseline to up to 40% at follow-up; P<0.001) and reduction in sP at all postbaseline time points (from 6.7 mg/dl to 6.2–6.3 mg/dl; P<0.001). Patients on calcium acetate (N=54) and sevelamer (N=94) who added SO therapy at follow-up resulted in a ≥250% increase in patients achieving sP ≤5.5 mg/dl (all P<0.001). Whereas mean phosphate binder pill burden increased with initiation of phosphate binder combination therapy with SO (15.8 pills/d at Q1 versus 12.3 pills/d at −Q1), continued use of SO was associated with down-titration of non-SO phosphate binders such that, by Q4, mean total PB pill burden reduced to 12.3 pills/d.ConclusionsFor patients on hemodialysis with uncontrolled hyperphosphatemia, combination therapy with SO may allow for sustained improvements in sP control without adversely affecting phosphate binder pill burden.

BackgroundHigher serum phosphate and fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) levels may be modifiable to prevent cardiovascular disease in CKD. Short-term studies have reported modest efficacy in phosphate and FGF23 reduction with intestinal phosphate binders in CKD.MethodsTo investigate effects of lanthanum carbonate (LC; a phosphate binder) and/or nicotinamide (NAM; an inhibitor of active intestinal phosphate transport) on serum phosphate and FGF23 in stage 3b/4 CKD, we conducted a randomized trial among individuals with eGFR 20–45 ml/min per 1.73 m2 to NAM (750 mg twice daily) plus LC (1000 mg thrice daily), NAM plus LC placebo, LC plus NAM placebo, or double placebo for 12 months. Dual primary end points were change from baseline in serum phosphate and intact FGF23 concentrations.ResultsMean eGFR for the 205 participants was 32ml/min per 1.73 m2. At baseline, serum phosphate was 3.7 mg/dl and median FGF23 was 99 pg/ml (10th, 90th percentiles: 59, 205). Mean rates of change in phosphate increased slightly over 12 months in all groups and did not differ significantly across arms. Similarly, percent changes in FGF23 per 12 months increased for all arms except LC plus placebo, and did not differ significantly across arms. Gastrointestinal symptoms limited adherence. Adverse events rates were similar across arms.ConclusionsLC and/or NAM treatment did not significantly lower serum phosphate or FGF23 in stage 3b/4 CKD over 12 months. Although these agents appeared safe, intestinal symptoms limited adherence. Reducing phosphate and FGF23 in nondialysis CKD will require new approaches.

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Constipation is prevalent in patients with kidney failure partly due to the use of medication, such as phosphate binders. We hypothesized that serum levels of gut microbiome-derived uremic toxins (UTOX) may be affected by the choice of phosphate binder putatively through its impact on colonic transit time. We investigated two commonly prescribed phosphate binders, sevelamer carbonate (SEV) and sucroferric oxyhydroxide (SFO), and their association with gut microbiome-derived UTOX levels in hemodialysis (HD) patients. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Weekly blood samples were collected from 16 anuric HD participants during the 5-week observational period. All participants were on active phosphate binder monotherapy with either SFO or SEV for at least 4 weeks prior to enrollment. Eight UTOX (7 gut microbiome-derived) and tryptophan were quantified using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Serum phosphorus, nutritional, and liver function markers were also measured. For each substance, weekly individual levels, the median concentration per participant, and differences between SFO and SEV groups were reported. Patient-reported bowel movements, by the Bristol Stool Scale (BSS), and pill usage were assessed weekly. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The SEV group reported a 3.3-fold higher frequency of BSS stool types 1 and 2 (more likely constipated, <i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.05), whereas the SFO group reported a 1.5-fold higher frequency of BSS stool types 5–7 (more likely loose stool and diarrhea, not significant). Participants in the SFO group showed a trend toward better adherence to phosphate binder therapy (SFO: 87.6% vs. SEV: 66.6%, not significant). UTOX, serum phosphorus, nutritional and liver function markers, and tryptophan were not different between the two groups. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> There was no difference in the gut microbiome-derived UTOX levels between phosphate binders (SFO vs. SEV), despite SFO therapy resulting in fewer constipated participants. This pilot study may inform study design of future clinical trials and highlights the importance of including factors beyond bowel habits and their association with UTOX levels.

Hyperphosphatemia is a common and well-described complication of end-stage renal disease. Despite strict dietary constraints and compliance, phosphate binders such as calcium acetate and/or sevelamer carbonate are also needed to treat secondary hyperparathyroidism. This case vignette describes an underrecognized adverse effect of a phosphate binder, sevelamer carbonate, inducing colitis in a 47-year-old male with insulin-dependent diabetes complicated by end-stage renal disease. He presented for recurrent abdominal pain with associated nausea and was found to have multiple circumferential lesions on computed tomography including distal ascending, transverse, and proximal descending colon. Colonoscopy demonstrated nearly obstructing lesions worrisome for colonic ischemia or inflammatory bowel disease. Pathological review of histology demonstrated ragged colonic mucosa with ulcerative debris and nonpolarizing crystalline material at the sites of ulceration, morphologically consistent with the phosphate binder, sevelamer carbonate. Sevelamer carbonate was discontinued, and the patient was transitioned to calcium carbonate with strict dietary restrictions. His symptoms improved with the cessation of sevelamer, and he was subsequently discharged home. He eventually underwent renal transplant without redevelopment of symptoms. Recognition of this underreported complication of sevelamer carbonate, phosphate binder, is of utmost importance in directing appropriate therapy with cessation of this medication in the setting of gastrointestinal complaints or more specifically enteritis and colitis. Clinicians providing care to end-stage renal patients taking either sevelamer and/or sodium polystyrene sulfonate should have increased awareness of the possible gastrointestinal side effects.

Metastatic Calcification

Hyperphosphatemia is recognized as a principal mineral disorder in chronic kidney disease (CKD) that leads to the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism. Approximately 70% of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and dialysis have hyperphosphataemia, which is associated with renal osteodystrophy, metastatic calcification and increased mortality and morbidity. Despite dietary restriction and dialysis, most patients will require a phosphate-binding agent to treat this condition.Lanthanum carbonate is an new, potent, selective, no-resin, non-calcium phosphate binder that retains high affinity for phosphate over a wide pH range, does not bind bile acids or contribute to metabolic acidosis. Taken with food, it is well tolerated. It is poorly absorbed and does not require functioning kidneys to be removed from the body. There is no evidence from current studies that it accumulates to biologically significant levels in tissues. Lanthanum carbonate has been shown in clinical studies of up to 6 years to be an effective, well-tolerated phosphate binder. Lanthanum carbonate controls hyperphosphataemia without increasing calcium intake above guideline targets and has the potential to reduce pill burden and increase patient compliance compared with other phosphate binders. Reported adverse effects are mainly gastrointestinal, and do not differ from those of calcium carbonate. The new phosphate binders, lanthanum carbonate and sevelamer, have increased the possibilities for serum phosphate control, at the expenses of significant increases in costs. The cost-effectiveness of lanthanum carbonate has been assessed by three different studies. A recent analysis, conducted on the perspective of the UK NHS, shows it is cost-effective to follow current treatment guidelines and treat all patients who are not adequately maintained on calcium carbonate (serum phosphorus above 5.6 mg/dl) with second-line lanthanum carbonate. This is particularly the case for patients with serum phosphorus above 6.6 mg/dl. A retrospective analysis, performed on IHCSI data base (USA), and a prospective study conducted in Spain show that lanthanum carbonate is cost-effective as compared with sevelamer, requiring less number of tablets, a fact that might improve adherence, and that probably explains better results with lower costs.

The authors present a stereotypical case presentation of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) and provide a review of the pathophysiology and related pharmacology of this condition, primarily focusing on the FDA-approved medication burosumab. XLH is a renal phosphate wasting disorder caused by loss of function mutations in the PHEX gene (phosphate-regulating gene with homologies to endopeptidases on the X chromosome). Typical biochemical findings include elevated serum levels of bioactive/intact fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) which lead to (i) low serum phosphate levels, (ii) increased fractional excretion of phosphate, and (iii) inappropriately low or normal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25-vitD). XLH is the most common form of heritable rickets and short stature in patients with XLH is due to chronic hypophosphatemia. Additionally, patients with XLH experience joint pain and osteoarthritis from skeletal deformities, fractures, enthesopathy, spinal stenosis, and hearing loss. Historically, treatment for XLH was limited to oral phosphate supplementation, active vitamin D supplementation, and surgical intervention for cases of severe bowed legs. In 2018, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved burosumab for the treatment of XLH and this medication has demonstrated substantial benefit compared with conventional therapy. Burosumab binds circulating intact FGF23 and blocks its biological effects in target tissues, resulting in increased serum inorganic phosphate (Pi) concentrations and increased conversion of inactive vitamin D to active 1,25-vitD.
