The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long term safety and efficacy of thrice weekly intravenous (IV) administration of etelcalcetide in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients receiving hemodialysis who had completed 12 weeks of treatment with etelcalcetide in parent study 20120331 (KAI-4169-005; NCT01414114).

Administered as an intravenous bolus three times a week at the end of each hemodialysis session at dosages up to a maximum of 15 mg.
Number of Participants With Adverse Events
Time frame: From the first dose of study drug in the parent study (20120331) through 30 days after the last dose in the extension study; actual median duration of treatment was 439 days.
Percent Change From Baseline in Parathyroid Hormone
Baseline was defined as the average of 3 predialysis results obtained within 3 weeks before the first dose of etelcalcetide in the parent study (20120331). The week numbering for this study continued from the parent study 20120331 hence the first measurement for all parameters in the extension study started at week 13.
Time frame: Baseline (of the parent study 20120331) and Weeks 13, 26 and 52
Percent Change From Baseline in Serum Corrected Calcium
Baseline was defined as the average of 3 predialysis results obtained within 3 weeks before the first dose of study drug in the parent study (20120331). The week numbering for this study continued from the parent study 20120331; the first measurement for all parameters in the extension study started at week 13.
Time frame: Baseline and Weeks 13, 26 and 52
Percent Change From Baseline in Serum Phosphorus
Baseline was defined as the average of 3 predialysis results obtained within 3 weeks before the first dose of study drug in the parent study (20120331). The week numbering for this study continued from the parent study 20120331; the first measurement for all parameters in the extension study started at week 13.
Time frame: Baseline and Weeks 13, 26 and 52
