Study of the Effect of SZC on Serum Potassium and Serum Bicarbonate in Patients With Hyperkalemia and Metabolic Acidosis Associated With Chronic Kidney Disease (NEUTRALIZE)


Brief Summary: 

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of SZC as compared to placebo in maintaining normal sK+ in patients with hyperkalemia and metabolic acidosis associated with CKD.

Detailed Description:
NEUTRALIZE is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel, multicenter, Phase IIIb study to investigate the safety and efficacy of SZC in patients with hyperkalemia and low bicarbonate (metabolic acidosis ).

The study will be conducted in the United States (US) at approximately 35 investigative sites.

After screening on Day 1, all eligible patients will receive open-label SZC for up to 48 hours. Patients who achieve normokalemia within 48 hours will be randomized 1:1 into the double-blind randomized treatment phase to receive SZC or placebo. Study treatment will end with the Day 29 visit, which will be followed by a follow-up visit 7 days after the last administration of study medication.
