Administered intravenously three times per week. The starting dose was 5 mg. The dose may have been increased at 4-week intervals by 2.5 mg or 5 mg on the basis of the predialysis parathyroid hormone and corrected calcium concentrations obtained in the prior week. The minimum dose was 2.5 mg and the maximum dose was 15 mg.
Administered intravenously (IV) three times per week.
Percentage of Participants With a > 30% Decrease From Baseline in Mean PTH During the Efficacy Assessment Phase
Participants who did not have any scheduled assessments during the EAP were considered non-responders.
Time frame: Baseline and the efficacy assessment phase (EAP; defined as Weeks 20 to 27, inclusive).
Percentage of Participants With Mean Predialysis Parathyroid Hormone ≤ 300 pg/mL During the Efficacy Assessment Phase
