RESUMEN
Because of increased risks of cardiovascular disease and death, patients with hyperphosphatemia receiving maintenance dialysis are advised to limit phosphorus consumption and are prescribed phosphate binders in an effort to better control serum phosphate concentrations. Because of large pill size, pill burden, and tolerability issues, phosphate binder adherence is relatively poor. On ingestion, phosphate is absorbed from the intestine via transcellular or paracellular transport. Data show that inhibiting sodium-hydrogen exchanger 3 modulates paracellular phosphate absorption (the predominant pathway in humans). Tenapanor is a first-in-class, minimally absorbed, phosphate absorption inhibitor that selectively inhibits sodium-hydrogen exchanger 3, with a mechanism distinct from, and complementary to, that of phosphate binders. In phase 3 and postregistrational studies, tenapanor conferred statistically significant and clinically meaningful reductions in serum phosphate in patients receiving maintenance dialysis with hyperphosphatemia. Here, we review the available preclinical and clinical data on the effects of tenapanor on controlling intestinal phosphate absorption.
RESUMEN
Gut microbiota-derived uremic toxins (UT) accumulate in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Dietary phosphorus and protein restriction are common in CKD treatment, but the relationship between dietary phosphorus, a key nutrient for the gut microbiota, and protein-derived UT is poorly studied. Thus, we explored the relationship between dietary phosphorus and serum UT in CKD rats. For this exploratory study, we used serum samples from a larger study on the effects of dietary phosphorus on intestinal phosphorus absorption in nephrectomized (Nx, n = 22) or sham-operated (sham, n = 18) male Sprague Dawley rats. Rats were randomized to diet treatment groups of low or high phosphorus (0.1% or 1.2% w/w, respectively) for 1 week, with serum trimethylamine oxide (TMAO), indoxyl sulfate (IS), and p-cresol sulfate (pCS) analyzed by LC-MS. Nx rats had significantly higher levels of serum TMAO, IS, and pCS compared to sham rats (all p < 0.0001). IS showed a significant interaction between diet and CKD status, where serum IS was higher with the high-phosphorus diet in both Nx and sham rats, but to a greater extent in the Nx rats. Serum TMAO (p = 0.24) and pCS (p = 0.34) were not affected by dietary phosphorus levels. High dietary phosphorus intake for 1 week results in higher serum IS in both Nx and sham rats. The results of this exploratory study indicate that reducing dietary phosphorus intake in CKD may have beneficial effects on UT accumulation.

BACKGROUND: Cognitive screening tools enable the detection of cognitive impairment, facilitate timely intervention, inform clinical care, and allow long-term planning. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment for people with hearing impairment (MoCA-H) was developed as a reliable cognitive screening tool for people with hearing loss. Using the same methodology across four languages, this study examined whether cultural or linguistic factors affect the performance of the MoCA-H. METHODS: The current study investigated the performance of the MoCA-H across English, German, French, and Greek language groups (n = 385) controlling for demographic factors known to affect the performance of the MoCA-H. RESULTS: In a multiple regression model accounting for age, sex, and education, cultural-linguistic group accounted for 6.89% of variance in the total MoCA-H score. Differences between languages in mean score of up to 2.6 points were observed. CONCLUSIONS: Cultural or linguistic factors have a clinically significant impact on the performance of the MoCA-H such that optimal performance cut points for identification of cognitive impairment derived in English-speaking populations are likely inappropriate for use in non-English speaking populations. To ensure reliable identification of cognitive impairment, it is essential that locally appropriate performance cut points are established for each translation of the MoCA-H.
RESUMEN
Excessive dietary phosphorus is a concern among patients with kidney failure undergoing dialysis treatment because it may contribute to hyperparathyroidism and hyperphosphatemia. A long-standing but untested component of the low-phosphorus diet is the promotion of refined grains over whole grains. This paper reviews the scientific premise for restricting whole grains in the dialysis population and estimates phosphorus exposure from grain products based on three grain intake patterns modeled from reported intakes in the general US population, adjusting for the presence of phosphorus additives and phosphorus bioavailability: (1) standard grain intake, (2) 100% refined grain intake, and (3) mixed (50/50 whole and refined grain) intake. Although estimated phosphorus exposure from grains was higher with the mixed grain pattern (231 mg/day) compared to the 100% refined grain pattern (127 mg/day), the amount of additional phosphorus from grains was relatively low. Given the lack of strong evidence for restricting whole grains in people with CKD, as well as the potential health benefits of whole grains, clinical trials are warranted to address the efficacy and health impact of this practice.

Hyperphosphatemia is a common feature in patients with impaired kidney function and is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. This phenomenon extends to the general population, whereby elevations of serum phosphate within the normal range increase risk; however, the mechanism by which this occurs is multifaceted, and many aspects are poorly understood. Less than 1% of total body phosphate is found in the circulation and extracellular space, and its regulation involves multiple organ cross talk and hormones to coordinate absorption from the small intestine and excretion by the kidneys. For phosphate to be regulated, it must be sensed. While mostly enigmatic, various phosphate sensors have been elucidated in recent years. Phosphate in the circulation can be buffered, either through regulated exchange between extracellular and cellular spaces or through chelation by circulating proteins (ie, fetuin-A) to form calciprotein particles, which in themselves serve a function for bulk mineral transport and signaling. Either through direct signaling or through mediators like hormones, calciprotein particles, or calcifying extracellular vesicles, phosphate can induce various cardiovascular disease pathologies: most notably, ectopic cardiovascular calcification but also left ventricular hypertrophy, as well as bone and kidney diseases, which then propagate phosphate dysregulation further. Therapies targeting phosphate have mostly focused on intestinal binding, of which appreciation and understanding of paracellular transport has greatly advanced the field. However, pharmacotherapies that target cardiovascular consequences of phosphate directly, such as vascular calcification, are still an area of great unmet medical need.

OBJECTIVE: To determine serum and urine concentrations of the uremic retention solutes (URSs), indoxyl sulfate (IS), p-cresol sulfate (PCS), and trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), and gut microbiota composition in individuals with moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD) compared with matched adults without CKD in a 6-day controlled feeding study. DESIGN AND METHODS: This study was a secondary analysis in which 8 adults with moderate CKD were matched for age, sex, and race with 8 adults without CKD in a parallel-arm, 6-day controlled feeding study. IS, PCS, and TMAO were quantified using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in fecal samples, fasting serum, and fasting spot urine samples collected at the end of the feeding period. RESULTS: Fasting serum URS concentrations were 2.8 to 4.9x higher in CKD compared to controls (all P < .05). No differences were found in the composition of the gut microbiota between patients with and without CKD when analyzing samples for α-diversity, ß-diversity, and only minor abundance differences across taxa were apparent. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was inversely related to each serum URS in the whole cohort (all P < .01). However, within groups the relationships between eGFR and serum URS remained strong for CKD patients for IS and TMAO (both P < .05) but weakened for PCS (P = .10). eGFR was only correlated with urine PCS in the whole cohort (P = .03); within groups, no correlation for eGFR with any urine URS was observed. Only urine TMAO was higher in CKD compared to controls (P < .05). CONCLUSION: Serum URS concentrations are elevated in adults with CKD compared to matched non-CKD adults without differences in gut microbiota composition after consuming the same controlled study diet for 6 days. Future studies are needed to determine if specific dietary components may differentially alter the microbiota and URS.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The aim of this review is to highlight recent evidence on the role of the gastrointestinal tract and gut microbiome on chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) outcomes, including intestinal phosphorus absorption and sensing, and the effect of gut-oriented therapies. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent evidence has revealed a complex interplay among mineral metabolism and novel gut-related factors, including paracellular intestinal phosphate absorption, the gut microbiome, and the immune system, prompting a reevaluation of treatment approaches for CKD-MBD. The inhibition of NHE3 limits phosphate transport in the intestine and may lead to changes in the gut microbiome. A study in rats with CKD showed that the supplementation of the fermentable dietary inulin delayed CKD-MBD, lowering circulating phosphorus and parathyroid hormone, reducing bone remodeling and improving cortical parameters, and lowering cardiovascular calcifications. In non-CKD preclinical studies, probiotics and prebiotics improved bone formation mediated through the effect of butyrate facilitating the differentiation of T cells into Tregs, and Tregs stimulating the osteogenic Wnt10b, and butyrate was also necessary for the parathyroid hormone (PTH) bone effects. SUMMARY: Recent findings support multiple possible roles for gut-oriented therapies in addressing CKD-MBD prevention and management that should be further explored through clinical and translational studies.

Phosphorus is a vital nutrient, but disturbances in phosphorus homeostasis are central to chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder. To minimize disturbances, traditional dietary guidance focused on a numerical phosphorus target leading to the exclusion of many healthy foods and implementation challenges. Contemporary phosphorus guidance focuses on dietary source, avoiding additives, and emphasizing low-phosphorus bioaccessibility foods, leading to a more liberal approach. Additional work is needed to demonstrate the efficacy of these contemporary approaches and understand the influence of specific foods, processing, and cooking methods. Unfortunately, patient education using traditional and contemporary strategies may give mixed messages, particularly related to plant-based foods. Thus, greater clarity on the effects of specific foods and dietary patterns may improve phosphorus education. This review aims to discuss the evolution of dietary phosphorus management while highlighting areas for future research that can help move the field toward stronger evidence-based guidance to prevent and treat hyperphosphatemia.

INTRODUCTION: Plant-based protein is of growing interest for dietary management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is hypothesized to preserve kidney function and reduce CKD-mineral bone disorder (MBD) complications, among other benefits. This systematic review aimed to summarize the available clinical trial evidence for the effect of plant-based protein on kidney function and CKD-MBD outcomes in adults with stage 3-5 CKD not on dialysis. METHODS: Searches of Medline, Embase, Agricola, CAB abstracts, Web of Science, Scopus, and hand searching were performed. Clinical trials with ≥8 participants ≥18 years of age with an estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 but not on dialysis were included. Additionally, only clinical trials with ≥1-week interventions with ≥50% dietary protein from plant-based sources and reported at least one outcome for both kidney function and CKD-MBD outcomes were included. Of the 10,962 identified abstracts, 32 met inclusion criteria and were assessed for risk of bias. RESULTS: Results for kidney function and CKD-MBD outcomes were heterogenous, with most studies having suboptimal methodological quality. In most of the studies (27/32), protein source was altered only secondarily to low-protein diet interventions. Thus, data synthesis and interpretation were focused on a subset of five studies that investigated a change in protein source only (i.e., animal vs. plant). Of this subset, four studies reported no change in kidney function, while one study reported a decrease. Three studies reported no change in serum phosphorus, and one study reported lower serum phosphorus following a vegetarian diet. Further, limited data and inconclusive results were observed for phosphaturic hormones, parathyroid hormone, and fibroblast growth factor-23. CONCLUSION: Current clinical trial evidence on plant-based protein interventions for preserving kidney function and preventing CKD-MBD is limited to inform clinical guidelines at this time. This systematic review emphasizes the ongoing need to research the effects of plant-based protein on kidney function and CKD-MBD outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Hearing impairment is common among older adults and affects cognitive assessments for identification of dementia which rely on good hearing function. We developed and validated a version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) for people with hearing impairment. METHODS: We adapted existing MoCA 8.1 items for people with hearing impairment by presenting instructions and stimuli in written rather than spoken format. One Attention domain and two Language domain items required substitution by alternative items. Three and four candidate items respectively were constructed and field-tested along with the items adapted to written form. We used a combination of individual item analysis and item substitution to select the set of alternative items to be included in the final form of the MoCA-H in place of the excluded original items. We then evaluated the performance and reliability of the final tool, including making any required adjustments for demographic factors. RESULTS: One hundred and fifty-nine hearing-impaired participants, including 76 with normal cognition and 83 with dementia, completed the adapted version of the MoCA. A further 97 participants with normal hearing completed the standard MoCA as well as the novel items developed for the MoCA-H to assess score equivalence between the existing and alternative MoCA items and for independence from hearing impairment. Twenty-eight participants were retested between 2-4 weeks after initial testing. After the selection of optimal item set, the final MoCA-H had an area under the curve of 0.973 (95% CI 0.952-0.994). At a cut-point of 24 points or less sensitivity and specificity for dementia was 92.8% and 90.8%, respectively. The intraclass correlation for test-retest reliability was 0.92 (95%CI 0.78-0.97). CONCLUSION: The MoCA-H is a sensitive and reliable means of identifying dementia among adults with acquired hearing impairment.

Dietary phosphorus restriction and phosphorus binders are commonly prescribed for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, occurrences of non-adherence to these interventions are common. As low-phosphorus (LP) diets have been consistently experimentally shown in vitro to increase intestinal phosphorus absorption efficiency, a bout of non-adherence to diet or binders may cause an unintended consequence of enhanced intestinal phosphorus absorption. Thus, we aimed to determine the effect of a single bout of high-phosphorus (HP) intake after acclimation to a LP diet. Male Sprague Dawley rats with 5/6 nephrectomy (n = 36) or sham operation (n = 36) were block-randomized to 1 of 3 diets: LP (0.1% P w/w), HP (1.2%), or LP followed by acute HP (LPHP 0.1% then 1.2%). Phosphorus absorption tests were conducted using 33P radioisotope administrated by oral gavage or intravenously (iv). Although the overall two-way ANCOVA model for intestinal fractional phosphorus absorption was non-significant, exploratory comparisons showed intestinal fractional phosphorus absorption efficiency tended to be higher in rats in the LP compared with HP or LPHP groups. Rats in the HP or LPHP groups had higher plasma phosphorus compared with rats in the LP group, but the LPHP group was not different from the HP group. Gene expression of the major intestinal phosphate transporter, NaPi-2b, was lower in the jejunum of rats in the LPHP group compared with rats in the HP group but not different in the duodenum. These results demonstrate that an acute HP load after acclimation to a LP diet does not lead to enhanced intestinal fractional phosphorus absorption efficiency in 5/6 nephrectomized male rats. These data provide evidence against the notion that dietary phosphorus restriction or binder use adversely increases absorption efficiency after a single instance of dietary or binder non-adherence. However, other adverse consequences of fluctuating dietary phosphorus intake cannot be ruled out. © 2022 The Authors.

RESUMEN
Bone calcium balance is the net gain, loss, or equilibrium of calcium moving to and from bone, which reflects bone balance. There are currently no clinically available tools for measuring real-time bone balance. In this issue, Shroff et al. demonstrate the use of natural stable calcium isotope ratios as a novel biomarker of bone balance in children with chronic kidney disease on dialysis that is highly repeatable and associated with radiological and biochemical markers of bone metabolism.

Osteoporosis-related bone fragility fractures are a major public health concern. Given the potential for adverse side effects of pharmacological treatment, many have sought alternative treatments, including dietary changes. Based on recent evidence that polyphenol-rich foods, like blueberries, increase calcium absorption and bone mineral density (BMD), we hypothesized that blueberry polyphenols would improve bone biomechanical properties. To test this, 5-month-old ovariectomized Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 10/gp) were orally gavaged for 90 days with either a purified extract of blueberry polyphenols (0-1000 mg total polyphenols/kg bw/day) or lyophilized blueberries (50 mg total polyphenols/kg bw/day). Upon completion of the dosing regimen, right femur, right tibia, and L1-L4 vertebrae were harvested and assessed for bone mineral density (BMD), with femurs being further analyzed for biomechanical properties via three-point bending. There were no differences in BMD at any of the sites analyzed. For bone mechanical properties, the only statistically significant difference was the high dose group having greater ultimate stress than the medium dose, although in the absence of differences in other measures of bone mechanical properties, we concluded that this result, while statistically significant, had little biological significance. Our results indicate that blueberry polyphenols had little impact on BMD or bone mechanical properties in an animal model of estrogen deficiency-induced bone loss.

OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to systematically evaluate the quality of electronic applications (apps) available for chronic kidney disease (CKD) dietary management. METHODS: The review consisted of (1) a systematic search for all mobile CKD diet apps available on the App Store and Google Play Store, (2) an evaluation to determine how well existing apps met criteria for an ideal app, and (3) a systematic literature review of publications found through Google Scholar, Mendeley, and PubMed that reviewed specific CKD diet apps and the broader field. RESULTS: After applying systematic search criteria, 10 unique apps were identified. Ten of 14 criteria considered necessary in an ideal CKD diet app were applied to the 13 apps. Important criteria such as tailoring recommendations to CKD stage or individual dietary needs, tracking nutrient intake, allowing data to be accessible to clinicians, availability on different app platforms, and including CKD-friendly recipes were not consistently available in the apps. None of the apps used the most contemporary nutrition guidelines on which to base their recommendations. While the literature suggests there is demand for CKD diet apps, common shortcomings of available apps including barriers to usability, inclusion of erroneous information, the requirement of a high e-literacy level, user costs, lack of privacy, security, and interactive features, and the inability of caregivers or family members to use apps to assist in patient care. CONCLUSIONS: The few CKD dietary apps currently on the market for people with CKD have notable limitations in terms of content and software design. Opportunities therefore exist for improving on available CKD diet apps and thereby fulfilling an important unmet need for patients with CKD.

BACKGROUND: Studies evaluating the change in serum phosphate post hemodialysis (HD) demonstrate an initial decline during dialysis but a rebound post dialysis. However, previous studies were done on usual diet and phosphate binders, with limited number of blood draws, confounding conclusions. We determined serum phosphate reduction, rebound, and equilibrium over 48 h in HD patients consuming a controlled, low phosphorus diet without binders. METHODS: Serum phosphate (mg/dL) was analyzed before and after a HD treatment and frequently during the ensuing 48 h intradialytic period in the clinical research unit. Thirteen subjects were enrolled and had been off phosphate binders for 10 days and consumed a standardized low phosphate (900 mg/day) diet for 3 weeks prior to the assessments. Linear regression was used to determine relationships between the pre-HD serum phosphate, decline post-HD (post-HD drop); and a 48 h area under curve (AUC) using the trapezoidal method as a measure of overall phosphate levels from the end of dialysis to 48 h post dialysis. Repeated Measures ANOVA with Dunnett's posthoc test was used to determine rebound. RESULTS: Five of 13 subjects returned to >90% of their pre-HD serum phosphate within the first 24 h post-HD, and serum phosphate was 94 ± 0.11% (range 63%-113%) by 48 h after the completion of HD. The 48 h AUC of serum phosphate during the interdialytic period was correlated with both pre dialysis phosphorus (r = 0.85; p = 0.0002) and the pre-post drop in serum phosphate during dialysis (r = 0.69; p = 0.0085). In contrast, the net ultrafiltration was not related to the 48 h AUC of serum phosphorus (r = 0.20; p = 0.51). CONCLUSIONS: In hemodialysis patients on standard low phosphorus diet and no phosphate binders, the interdialytic serum phosphorus level, assessed as AUC, is determined by the pre dialysis phosphorus and net-change in serum phosphorus during the dialysis treatment, but not the ultrafiltration volume [Correction added on 25 January, after first online publication: In the last sentence of the Abstract, the word "potassium" has been replaced with "phosphorus" to improve accuracy.].

BACKGROUND: Reducing intestinal phosphorus absorption is a cornerstone in CKD-MBD management. Yet, knowledge gaps include how CKD pathophysiology affects intestinal phosphorus absorption. In vivo rodent studies suggest that intestinal phosphorus absorption remains inappropriately normal in early-moderate CKD, despite declining 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25D). We measured intestinal phosphorus absorption in patients with moderate CKD versus healthy adults using a direct radiotracer method. METHODS: Patients with CKD and healthy adults matched for age, sex, and race were enrolled in this 8-day controlled diet study: the first 6 days outpatient and the final 2 days inpatient. Oral and intravenous doses of 33P and serial blood and urine sampling determined intestinal phosphorus absorption during the final 2 days. Secondary outcomes included fasting biochemistries and 24-hour urine phosphorus (uP). RESULTS: In total, n=8 patients with CKD (eGFR=29-55 ml/min per 1.73 m2) and n=8 matched healthy controls completed the study. On a controlled diet, no difference in fractional intestinal phosphorus absorption was detected between patients with CKD and healthy adults (0.69 versus 0.62, respectively; P=0.52), and this was similar for 24-hour uP (884 versus 935 mg/d, respectively; P=0.70). Fractional intestinal phosphorus absorption was not significantly related to 24-hour uP. Patients with CKD had higher serum intact PTH and intact FGF23 and lower 1,25D. The relationship between 1,25D and fractional intestinal phosphorus absorption was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: Intestinal phosphorus absorption with typical dietary intake did not differ in patients with moderate CKD compared with controls, despite lower serum 1,25D levels. In this setting, a relationship between 24-hour uP and fractional or absolute intestinal absorption was not evident. Further investigation is needed to determine what factors influence intestinal phosphorus absorption in CKD and the apparent lack of compensation by the intestine to limit phosphorus absorption in the face of declining kidney function and reduced 1,25D. Whether this is evident across a range of dietary phosphorus intakes, as well as CKD severity, also needs to be determined.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The purpose of this review is to discuss recent findings in intestinal phosphorus absorption pathways, particularly the contributions of paracellular versus transcellular absorption, and the differential findings from studies using in vitro versus in vivo techniques of assessing phosphorus absorption in experimental animal studies. RECENT FINDINGS: Experimental animal studies show that in vivo effects of low phosphorus diets, 1,25D, and chronic kidney disease on intestinal phosphorus absorption efficiency contradict effects previously established ex vivo/in vitro. Recent in vivo studies also suggest that the paracellular pathway accounts for the majority of phosphorus absorption in animals across very low to high luminal phosphate concentrations. The data from experimental animal studies correspond to recent human studies showing the effectiveness of targeted inhibition of paracellular phosphate absorption. Additionally, recent human studies have demonstrated that NaPi-2b inhibition alone does not appear to be effective in lowering serum phosphate levels in patients with chronic kidney disease. Pursuit of other transcellular phosphate transporter inhibitors may still hold promise. SUMMARY: In vivo animal and human studies have added to our understanding of intestinal phosphorus absorption pathways, regulation, and mechanisms. This is beneficial for developing effective new strategies for phosphate management in patients with chronic kidney disease.

The rising incidence of cardiometabolic diseases and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a leading public health problem in East Asia. Diet is an important modifiable risk factor; thus, adopting a healthy diet such as the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet may help combat these chronic diseases. The DASH diet was originally developed in a U.S. population, and East Asia is demographically and culturally different from the U.S. Therefore, it is important to examine the evidence regarding the DASH diet and chronic disease in this unique population. This narrative review summarizes the evidence on the DASH diet and cardiometabolic health and CKD in East Asia. Culturally-modified DASH diets have been developed in some East Asian countries. Studies suggest the DASH diet is effective at lowering blood pressure in this population, though the long-term benefits remain unclear. Evidence also suggests the DASH diet may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Further research indicates the DASH diet and its components may reduce CKD risk. However, recommending the DASH diet in those who already have CKD is controversial, as it conflicts with current CKD dietary guidelines, especially in advanced CKD. Notably, current intakes in the general population differ from the DASH dietary pattern, suggesting public health efforts would be needed to encourage adoption of the DASH diet.

Weight loss is a major focus of research and public health efforts. Time-restricted eating (TRE) is shown to be effective for weight loss, but the impact on bone is unclear. Short-term TRE studies show no effect on bone mineral density (BMD), but no study has measured bone turnover markers. This secondary analysis examined the effect of 12 weeks of TRE vs. unrestricted eating on bone turnover and BMD. Overweight and obese adults aged 18-65 y (n = 20) were randomized to TRE (ad libitum 8-h eating window) or non-TRE. Serum N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (P1NP), cross-linked N-telopeptide of type I collagen (NTX), and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels were measured and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans were taken pre- and post-intervention. In both groups, P1NP decreased significantly (p = 0.04) but trended to a greater decrease in the non-TRE group (p = 0.07). The treatment time interaction for bone mineral content (BMC) was significant (p = 0.02), such that BMC increased in the TRE group and decreased in the non-TRE group. Change in P1NP was inversely correlated with change in weight (p = 0.04) overall, but not within each group. These findings suggest that TRE does not adversely affect bone over a moderate timeframe. Further research should examine the long-term effects of TRE on bone.

The treatment of hyperphosphatemia remains challenging in patients receiving hemodialysis. This phase 1b study assessed safety and efficacy of EOS789, a novel pan-inhibitor of phosphate transport (NaPi-2b, PiT-1, PiT-2) on intestinal phosphate absorption in patients receiving intermittent hemodialysis therapy. Two cross-over, randomized order studies of identical design (ten patients each) compared daily EOS789 50 mg to placebo with meals and daily EOS789 100 mg vs EOS789 100 mg plus 1600 mg sevelamer with meals. Patients ate a controlled diet of 900 mg phosphate daily for two weeks and began EOS789 on day four. On day ten, a phosphate absorption testing protocol was performed during the intradialytic period. Intestinal fractional phosphate absorption was determined by kinetic modeling of serum data following oral and intravenous doses of 33Phosphate (33P). The results demonstrated no study drug related serious adverse events. Fractional phosphate absorption was 0.53 (95% confidence interval: 0.39,0.67) for placebo vs. 0.49 (0.35,0.63) for 50 mg EOS789; and 0.40 (0.29,0.50) for 100 mg EOS789 vs. 0.36 (0.26,0.47) for 100 mg EOS789 plus 1600 mg sevelamer (all not significantly different). The fractional phosphate absorption trended lower in six patients who completed both studies with EOS789 100 mg compared with placebo. Thus, in this phase 1b study, EOS789 was safe and well tolerated. Importantly, the use of 33P as a sensitive and direct measure of intestinal phosphate absorption allows specific testing of drug efficacy. The effectiveness of EOS789 needs to be evaluated in future phase 2 and phase 3 studies.
