Trial Review

Please note the ANZCTR will be unattended from Friday 20 December 2024 for the holidays. The Registry will re-open on Tuesday 7 January 2025. Submissions and updates will not be processed during that time.

Registering a new trial?

To achieve prospective registration, we recommend submitting your trial for registration at the same time as ethics submission.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - paricalcitol
Treatment: Drugs - placebo

Experimental: Paricalcitol - Participants received paricalcitol capsules 2 µg once a day (two 1 µg paricalcitol capsules), for up to 48 weeks. Participants who completed the 48-week Treatment Period could continue in the Long-term Follow-up Period for an additional 18 months. Participants did not receive study drug during the Long-term Follow-up Period.

Placebo comparator: Placebo - Participants received 2 placebo capsules once a day for up to 48 weeks. Participants who completed the 48-week Treatment Period could continue in the Long-term Follow-up Period for an additional 18 months. Participants did not receive study drug during the Long-term Follow-up Period.
