Individuals with chronic hypoparathyroidism managed with conventional therapy (active vitamin D and calcium) are at increased risk for renal complications and declines in renal function. In clinical trials, palopegteriparatide treatment enabled independence from conventional therapy (no active vitamin D and ≤600 mg/day elemental calcium) and maintained serum biochemistries within normal ranges. This post hoc analysis examines the impact of palopegteriparatide treatment on renal function in adults with chronic hypoparathyroidism through week 104 of PaTHway, a phase 3 trial with a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled 26-week period and ongoing 156-week open-label extension. Changes in renal function were assessed using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). At week 104, 93% (76/82) of participants remained in the trial. Of those, 82% had normal albumin-adjusted serum calcium levels (2.07-2.64 mmol/l), 97% were independent from conventional therapy, none required active vitamin D. Mean (SD) serum phosphate (1.1 (0.2) mmol/l) and albumin-adjusted calcium x phosphate product (2.5(0.4) mmol2/l2) were normal. At week 104, mean (SD) eGFR was 77.8 (14.8) mL/min/1.73m2. With palopegteriparatide treatment mean eGFR increased 8.9 (11.0) mL/min/1.73m2 (P<.0001) from baseline to week 52, which was sustained through week 104 with a mean (SD) change from baseline of 9.0 (10.3) mL/min/1.73m2 (P<.0001). By week 104, 61% and 44% of participants had an increase in eGFR of ≥5 mL/min/1.73m2 and ≥10 mL/min/1.73m2, respectively. Palopegteriparatide treatment normalized mean 24-hour urine calcium within 26 weeks, maintaining levels below 6.2 mmol/day through week 104 (4.0 (2.3) mmol/day). No cases of nephrolithiasis were reported with palopegteriparatide. Most TEAEs were mild or moderate; no new safety signals reported. These findings demonstrate the sustained renal safety of palopegteriparatide and suggest that PTH replacement therapy with palopegteriparatide and independence from conventional therapy may not only preserve but improve renal function in adults with chronic hypoparathyroidism.
