Plasma p-cresol lowering effect of sevelamer in peritoneal dialysis patients: evidence from a Cross-Sectional Observational Study. [PDF]
p-Cresol is a by-product of the metabolism of aromatic aminoacid operated by resident intestinal bacteria. In patients with chronic kidney disease, the accumulation of p-cresol and of its metabolite p-cresyl-sulphate causes endothelial dysfunction and ...

Benefits of Sevelamer on Markers of Bone Turnover in Taiwanese Hemodialysis Patients
Sevelamer hydrochloride is a recently developed phosphate binder, which is a quaternary amine anion exchanger without calcium or aluminum. Sevelamer is effective in controlling hyperphosphatemia without increasing the calcium load in chronic hemodialysis

Use of sevelamer in chronic kidney disease: beyond phosphorus control
Sevelamer is a non-calcium phosphate binder used in advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) and in dialysis for hyperphosphataemia control. Several experimental, observational studies and clinical trials have shown that sevelamer has pleiotropic effects ...

A Pan-Inhibitor of Phosphate Transporters AP306 in Hemodialysis Patients [PDF]
Introduction: Hyperphosphatemia in patients undergoing dialysis is not well-controlled. AP306 is a pan-inhibitor of phosphate transporters, designed to block the active uptake of phosphate through the gastrointestinal tract.
