Synergistic effect of cinacalcet and active vitamin D in a dialysis patient with secondary hyperparathyroidism
While treating a long-term dialysis patient for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), indications of a synergistic effect between cinacalcet HCl and active vitamin D were observed. After 2.5 years, high initial cinacalcet doses of 180 mg/day could be significantly reduced to only 30 mg/non-dialysis...

| Zusammenfassung: | While treating a long-term dialysis patient for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), indications of a synergistic effect between cinacalcet HCl and active vitamin D were observed. After 2.5 years, high initial cinacalcet doses of 180 mg/day could be significantly reduced to only 30 mg/non-dialysis day without losing control over the intact parathyroid hormone. Calcium-phosphorus product improved over time. The combination of cinacalcet and active vitamin D may improve the treatment of SHPT in dialysis patients. |
