ADVANCE STUDY Study Hypothesis A treatment regimen that includes cinacalcetplus low-dose vitamin D will attenuate progression of coronary artery calcification (CAC) over one year, compared with traditional therapy*, in hemodialysis patients treated with calcium-containing phosphate binders or no binders. *Traditional Therapy = vitamin D + phosphate binders (only Ca-containing PBs)
ADVANCE STUDY Floege J et al NDT 2010
Study Endpoints Primary Endpoint Percentage change in CAC score from baseline to Week 52 based on Agatston score • Percentage change from baseline in CAC score at week 52 Secondary Endpoints • Absolute change in CAC score from baseline to Week 52 • Absolute and percentage change in calcification scores for: • Thoracic aorta from baseline to Week 52 • Aortic and mitral valve from baseline to Week 52 • Proportion of patients with > 15% progression of CAC • from baseline to Week 52 • Absolute and percentage change in laboratory • parameters at end of study (weeks 44 to 52) • Safety

limiti • Periodo di studio relativamente breve • End-point primario non del tutto appropriato da un punto di vista metodologico • Studio limitato a pazienti con un CAC score >30 • Uso consentito solo di chelanti contenenti Ca
Suggerimenti • I pazienti con carico di calcificazioni più elevato potrebbero beneficiarne di più • Un periodo più lungo potrebbe dimostrare maggiori benefici • L’associazione con chelanti a minor carico di calcio potrebbe manifestarsi più premiante

EVOLVE Fulfills Criteria of a Well-Designed Outcomes Trial Screening Phase Up to 30 Days Titration Phase (Visits Q2 Wks) Follow up Phase(Visits Q8 Wks) Placebo plus standard of care(n = 1,900) Event-driven study that concludes when approximately 1,882 subjects have experienced a primary composite event Cinacalcet plus standard of care (n = 1,900) • Trial Population • Hemodialysis • iPTH 300 pg/mL • Ca 8.4 mg/dL • Ca x P 45 mg2/dL2 All patients could receive vitamin D sterols and phosphate binders, as necessary, at the discretion of the physician. Day 1 Week 20 Week 52 Enrollment = ~ 1.5 years Follow-up period = ~ 2.5 years Adapted from: Chertow GM, et al. Clin J Am Soc Nephrol. 2007;2:898-905.
EVOLVE: Study Endpoints • Primary Composite Endpoint • Time to: • All cause Mortality or • First nonfatal CV event • Myocardial infarction • Hospitalization for unstable angina • Heart failure • Peripheral vascular event • Secondary Endpoints • Time to: • Individual components of the primary endopoint • Cardiovascular mortality • Stroke • Clinical bone fracture • Parathyroidectomy Adapted from Chertow GM, et al. Clin J Am Soc Nephrol. 2007;2:898-905.
Sample size • The sample size calculation for the primary endpoint assumes a placebo primary composite event rate of approximately 23.2% per year, a 1.5-year enrollment period, a lost to follow up rate of 1% per year, a withdrawal from treatment (dropout) rate of 10% per year in the cinacalcet group, a drop-in rate in the placebo group of 10% per year, and a 10-week lag in the time to achieve the full treatment effect. • Based on a two-sided log-rank test for equality of survivor functions using a 0.044 significance level at the final analysis (which is based on an overall alpha at 0.05 and accounts for 3 planned interim analyses), 1882 subjects must experience a primary composite endpoint to ensure adequate power (90%), with a total sample size of approximately 3800 subjects.
EVOLVE Statistical Analyses Primary Analysis: Unadjusted analysis according to the intention-to-treat principle (ITT) PrespecifiedSecondary Analysis: Multivariate adjustment for baseline characteristics (ITT) • PrespecifiedSensitivity Analysis: • Lag censoring analysis: data censored 6 months after subject stops study drug Chertow GM, et al. N Engl J Med. Epub 2012 Nov 3; DOI: 10.1056/NEJMoa1205624
Lag-censoring analysis • Assesses the effect of cinacalcetby censoring (removing) data after patients discontinued study drug • 6 months lag censoring analysis was pre-specified since no further treatment effect was assumed beyond this point • Analyses using lag times of 0, 3, 9, 12, 18 months were also performed Randomization to study Chertow GM, et al.

Messaggi conclusivi • Il mancato controllo biochimico dei parametri del MM è associato ad una progressione dell’IPS verso forme non controllate di IPS, con conseguenti gravi alterazioni ossee • Queste forme portano all’indicazione di una PTX • L’efficacia della terapia sul controllo dell’IPS è prevalentemente basata sulla sua efficacia del controllo dei parametri biochimici • La carenza d’informazione riguarda: • Gli step decisionali nell’uso dei nuovi farmaci • La tollerabilità e la sicurezza nell’uso di questi farmaci • Il profilo di costo-efficacia
