  • A positive screen for alcohol or drugs of abuse.
  • Male subjects who consume more than 21 units of alcohol per week or three units per day. Female subjects who consume more than 14 units of alcohol per week or two units per day.
  • A positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody screen, Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody screen.
  • Use of tobacco in any form or other nicotine-containing products in any form. Ex-users must report that they have stopped using tobacco for at least 30 days prior to receiving the first dose of investigational product.
  • Routine consumption of more than two units of caffeine per day or subjects who experience caffeine withdrawal headaches.
  • Donation of blood or blood products within 60 days prior to receiving the first dose of investigational product.
  • Use of another investigational product within 30 days prior to receiving the first dose of investigational product or active enrolment in another drug or vaccine clinical study.
  • An inability to follow a standardized diet and/or meal schedule, as required during the study.

Treatment and study plan

Lanthanum carbonate

Drug

1 x 1000mg tablet

Other names: Fosrenol

Sevelamer

Drug

3 x 800mg tablets

Other names: Renvela

Primary outcomes

  1. Net Phosphorous Absorption

    Time frame: 10 hours post-dose

    Net phosphorous absorption (Lanthanum carbonate period) = phosphorous ingested in meal minus (Rectal effluent phosphorous after Lanthanum carbonate + meal minus Rectal effluent phosphorous after fasting). Net phosphorous absorption (Sevelamer Carbonate period) = Phosphorous ingested in meal minus (Rectal effluent phosphorous after Sevelamer carbonate + meal minus Rectal effluent phosphorous after fasting). Net phosphorous absorption (Meal only period) = Phosphorous ingested in meal minus (Rectal effluent phosphorous after meal only minus Rectal effluent phosphorous after fasting).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Net Phosphorous Binding

    Time frame: 10 hours post-dose

    Net Phosphorous Binding (Lanthanum carbonate period) = Rectal effluent phosphorous after Lanthanum carbonate + meal minus Rectal effluent phosphorous after meal only. Net Phosphorous Binding (Sevelamer carbonate period) = Rectal effluent phosphorous after Sevelamer carbonate + meal minus Rectal effluent phosphorous after meal only.

  2. Net Calcium Absorption

    Time frame: 10 hours post-dose

    Net Calcium Absorption (Lanthanum carbonate period) = Calcium ingested in meal minus (Rectal effluent calcium after Lanthanum carbonate + meal minus Rectal effluent calcium after fasting). Net Calcium Absorption (Sevelamer Carbonate period) = Calcium ingested in meal minus (Rectal effluent calcium after Sevelamer carbonate + meal minus Rectal effluent calcium after fasting). Net Calcium Absorption (Meal only period) = Calcium ingested in meal minus (Rectal effluent calcium after meal only minus Rectal effluent calcium after fasting).
