Assess the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of etelcalcetide in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in pediatric participants between ≥ 2 to \< 18 years of age, with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on hemodialysis.
Phase 3 trials are pivotal studies with large patient populations (hundreds to thousands) designed to prove efficacy and safety for FDA submission. A successful Phase 3 readout is typically the last major hurdle before a New Drug Application (NDA) or BLA filing.
Currently recruiting: the trial is enrolling patients. A data readout is not expected until after enrollment closes and the follow-up period is complete.
Amgen Inc (AMGN) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company F (35/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
