ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Lanthanum carbonate and sevelamer carbonate are noncalcium phosphate binders used to treat hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease. This is the first study to compare phosphate absorption from a standardized meal ingested with a typical clinical dose of these binders. STUDYDESIGN:
Randomized open-label crossover study. SETTINGS &PARTICIPANTS:
Healthy volunteers were confined to a clinical research center during 4 study periods. Of 31 volunteers randomly assigned, 19 completed all treatments and 18 were analyzed in the pharmacodynamic set (1 was excluded because of vomiting). INTERVENTION Participants were assigned in random order to meal alone, meal plus lanthanum carbonate (1 tablet containing 1,000 mg of elemental lanthanum), and meal plus sevelamer carbonate (three 800-mg tablets). The gastrointestinal tract was cleared, the meal was ingested (± treatment), and rectal effluent was collected. In a fourth period, volunteers repeated the study procedures while fasting.OUTCOMES:
The primary end point, net phosphate absorption, was analyzed using a mixed-effect linear model. MEASUREMENTS Phosphorus content of effluent and duplicate meal samples were measured using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy.RESULTS:
The standard meal contained â¼375 mg of phosphate, 75% of which was absorbed (net absorption, 281.7 ± 14.1 mg [adjusted mean ± standard error]). Lanthanum carbonate decreased net phosphate absorption by 45% (net absorption, 156.0 ± 14.2 mg) compared with 21% (net absorption, 221.8 ± 14.1 mg) for sevelamer carbonate (P < 0.001). Lanthanum carbonate bound 135.1 ± 12.3 mg of phosphate, whereas sevelamer carbonate bound 63.2 ± 12.3 mg, a 71.9-mg difference (95% CI, 40.0-103.8; P < 0.001). Per tablet, this equates to 135 mg of phosphate bound with lanthanum carbonate versus 21 mg with sevelamer carbonate.LIMITATIONS:
A single-dose study.CONCLUSIONS:
In healthy volunteers, 1,000 mg of lanthanum carbonate decreased phosphate absorption by 45% compared with a 21% decrease with 2,400 mg of sevelamer carbonate.
