Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial
Evaluation of the effect of lanthanum carbonate hydrate on the pharmacokinetics of roxadustat in non-elderly healthy adult male subjects.
Roxadustat is a hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor currently being investigated for the treatment of anemia in chronic kidney disease. Lanthanum carbonate is a phosphate binder that is commonly used to treat hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease. This study investigated the effect of lanthanum carbonate on the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of roxadustat in healthy non-elderly adult male subjects. ⋯ Concomitant administration of a single oral dose of 100 mg roxadustat and 750 mg lanthanum carbonate three times daily did not impact the AUCinf or Cmax of roxadustat and was considered safe and well tolerated in non-elderly healthy adult male Japanese subjects.
