Long-Term Efficacy and Safety of Evocalcet in Japanese Patients with Secondary Hyperparathyroidism Receiving Hemodialysis

Abstract Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and as the disease progresses SHPT is associated with systemic consequences, termed CKD-mineral and bone disorder. Currently, cinacalcet is indicated for the treatment of SHPT; however, cinacalcet...
