A Phase 3, Open-Label, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety of Paricalcitol Capsules in Pediatric Subjects Ages 10 to 16 With Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease Receiving Peritoneal Dialysis or Hemodialysis

The objective is to evaluate the safety of paricalcitol capsules in pediatric subjects, ages
10 to 16 years old, with Stage 5 chronic kidney disease (kidney failure) receiving
peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis and being treated for secondary hyperparathyroidism.
Subjects will be in the dosing period of the study for 12 weeks in order to evaluate the
incidence of hypercalcemia (high calcium levels in blood). Approximately 12 subjects will be
enrolled and all 12 will receive paricalcitol capsules.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Subject must be receiving peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis for at least 3 months
prior to Screening

- Male or female subject between 10 and 16 years of age, inclusive at the time of
Screening

- Subject is currently being treated for secondary hyperparathyroidism

- For entry into the Dosing Period (for subjects that are naïve to Vitamin D Receptor
(VDR) Activators or those who have completed a 2 to 12 week washout), the subject
must meet the following laboratory criteria prior to enrollment:

- A corrected calcium value greater than or equal to 8.4 and less than or equal to
10.2 mg/dL

- A phosphorus value less than or equal to 6.5 mg/dL

- An intact parathyroid hormone value greater than 300 pg/mL and less than or
equal to 2000 pg/mL

Exclusion Criteria:

- Subject is expected or scheduled to receive a living donor kidney transplant within 3
months of Screening or is a kidney transplant patient requiring full
immunosuppressant therapy

- Subject is expected to stop peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis within 4 months of
Screening (per investigator discretion)

- Subject has had a parathyroidectomy within 12 weeks prior to Screening

- Subject has had symptomatic or significant hypocalcemia requiring VDR Activator
therapy (i.e., calcitriol, paricalcitol, or doxercalciferol) within 2 months prior to
Screening

- Subject is taking maintenance calcitonin, bisphosphonates, glucocorticoids in an
equivalent dose of greater than 5 mg prednisone daily, or other drugs known to affect
calcium or bone metabolism within 4 to 8 weeks prior to Dosing

- Subject is receiving cinacalcet at the time of Screening
