NCT01639222

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the intestinal absorption of calcium from a newly developed calcium carbonate-vitamin D3 chewable tablet formulation increases the amount of calcium excreted in urine and decreases parathyroid hormone (PTH) in serum as compared to baseline.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Amount of Calcium Excreted in Urine From 0 Hours up to 6 Hours Post Dose (Ca2+ Ae0-6h)

    Ca2+ Ae0-6h was calculated as the urine volume of the urine collected from 0 to 6 hours multiplied by the calcium concentration measured in urine.

    Day 3 of Period 1 (Reference) and Day 3 in Period 2. Samples were taken 0-6 Hours post dose

  • Area Under the Curve From 0 to 6 Hours Post Dose of Parathyroid Hormone (PTH AUC0-6h) in Serum

    The area under the curve from 0 to 6 hours post dose of parathyroid hormone (PTH AUC0-6h) in serum, calculated using the linear trapezoidal formula.

    Day 3 in Period 1 (Reference) and Day 3 in Period 2. Samples were taken at predose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hour post dose.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Amount of Calcium Excreted in Urine From 0 to 6 Hours Post Dose Corected for Creatinine (Ae0-6h/Creatinine)

    Day 3 of Period 1 (Baseline) and Day 3 in Period 2. Samples will be taken 0-6 Hours postdose

Study Arms (1)

Calcium 500 mg and Vitamin D3 800 IU

EXPERIMENTAL

Period 1: Low calcium meals for up to 3 days. Period 2: Calcium 500 mg and Vitamin D3 800 IU chewable tablets, orally, once daily for up to 3 days with low calcium meals.
