Obstacles to successful management of hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease include inadequate control of dietary phosphate and non-compliance with phosphate-binder therapy. Three major classes of phosphate binders include calcium-based binders, sevelamer HCl, and lanthanum carbonate. A literature search was performed
A conventional human pharmacokinetic (PK) in vivo study is often considered as the "gold standard" to determine bioequivalence (BE) of drug products. However, this BE approach is not always applicable to the products not intended to be delivered into the
Orally administered lanthanum carbonate (Fosrenol) dissociates in the acid environment of the upper gastrointestinal tract to release the cation lanthanum, which then binds dietary phosphate. Lanthanum carbonate was effective in reducing levels of serum phosphate and serum calcium x phosphate
Hyperphosphatemia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in dialysis patients. Oral phosphate binders are necessary to control serum phosphate in patients eating a normal diet and undergoing peritoneal dialysis or thrice weekly hemodialysis. Until recently, none of the available

Hyperphosphatemia is recognized as a principal mineral disorder in chronic kidney disease (CKD) that leads to the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism. Recent data indicate that hyperphosphatemia is associated with accelerated cardiac calcification and increased mortality in patients with CKD. Control
