Study start date: February 1, 2022

Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

This study focuses on evaluating the effectiveness and safety of a medication called Paricalcitol in treating secondary hyperparathyroidism, a condition that often accompanies stage 3 and stage 4 chronic kidney disease in adults. Secondary hyperparathyroidism can lead to complications such as bone disease and abnormal calcium levels. This research aims to find a better treatment approach for this condition, potentially improving the quality of life for those affected by it.
