Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Intact Parathormone (iPTH) Changes During the Study Time-Points for Overall Study Population
iPTH levels before and after oral paricalcitol treatment onset were recorded at each study visit, and corresponding changes were calculated for the overall study population.
