Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • percent reduction in weekly ESA consumption to maintain Hb levels within the recommended range 10.0-11.5 g/dl

    Primary objective: to test whether a tighter PTH control to achieve a PTH level lower than 300 pg/ml vs PTH levels between 300-540 pg/ml is associated with a lower ESA dose use to achieve the target Hb of 10.0-11.5 g/dl

    baseline and after 12 months of followup

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Change in iron status and storage.

    baseline and after 12 months of followup

  • Difference in prevalence of cardiac valvular calcification progression detected by echocardiography between groups.

    baseline and after 12 months of followup

  • Difference in pulse wave velocity assessed by applanation tonometry between groups.

    baseline and after 12 months of followup

  • CKD-MBD control

    baseline and after 12 months of followup

Study Arms (2)

control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Control group: standard care. The iPTH target in this group is 300-540 pg/ml

Drug: standard care

Optimal CKD-MBD control

EXPERIMENTAL

Optimal CKD-MBD control: in this group the PTH target is150-300 pg/ml to be achieved with a therapeutic algorithm

Drug: Optimal (I. iPTH control: Zemplar®,Mimpara®; phosphorous control: Renvela®, Phoslo®, Osvaren®, Foznol®,Maalox®; calcium control: calcium and vitamin D

Interventions

Standard care. Patients allocated to this study arm will be treated with all drugs available for PTH control (at the investigator discretion) to obtain a iPTH of 300-540 pg/ml.

Also known as: Drugs available on the market control iPTH
control

Optimal care. Patients allocated to this study arm will be treated with all drugs available for PTH control (at the investigator discretion - see therapeutic algorithm) to obtain a iPTH of less than 300 pg/ml.
