A Prospective, Randomized Trial to Compare Subtotal Parathyroidectomy Versus Cinacalcet in the Treatment of Persistent Secondary Hyperparathyroidism Post Renal Transplantation

NCT01178450 Phase 4 COMPLETED

The hypothesis of this study is that subtotal parathyroidectomy using minimally invasive surgery is superior to cinacalcet for the treatment of persistent secondary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) post renal transplant, with minimal morbidity and significantly reduces the cost of treatment post transplant.
