Background: Diabetes Mellitus
Epidemiology 7th leading cause of death in the U.S. Leading cause of kidney failure, responsible
for 44% of new cases

Diabetic Nephropathy
Microvascular complications Hyperglycemia causes changes in the cells of
the glomeruli of the kidney:

Basement membrane thickening, microaneurysm formation, and other changes

Diabetic Nephropathy
As the glomerulus cells weaken, albumin from the blood leaks into the urine
Microalbuminuria: 30-299mg/24 hours Proteinuria: 300+mg/24 hours Nephropathy: 500+mg/24 hours
Preventative guidelines Glycemic control ACEI/ARBs: decrease intraglomerular
pressure, shown to decrease risk of progressing from micro to macroalbuminuria by 60-70%

Background
As eGFR decreases, calcitriol concentrations decrease
Has been associated with higher urinary albumin to creatinine ratios
Paricalcitol reduced albuminuria in preclinical models

Methods February 2007- October 2008 (24 weeks) Enrolled 281 patients from hospital and clinic in Germany,
Greece, the Netherlands, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Taiwan, USA
Inclusion:
Over 20 years old Type 2 diabetes and nephropathy (defined as
UACR average morning void of 100-3000mg/g and eGFR of 15-90mL/min)
Have received ACEI or ARB for at least 3 months Exclusion:
Acute renal failure (rise in SCr of 0.5mg/dl) Primary glomerulonephritis or secondary nephritis
![Page 7: Selective vitamin D receptor activation with paricalcitol for reduction of albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes (VITAL study) Lambers Heerspink,](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649e865503460f94b88767/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Methods Randomly assigned to receive paricalcitrol 1mg,
2mg, or placebo once daily ACEI and ARB doses could not be adjusted Every 4 weeks, and 30 days and 60 days after
completion: vitals, blood chemistry, adverse events, urine at first morning void for 3 consecutive days
24 urine samples taken at baseline, completion and 60 days after treatment completion
Paricalcitrol blood levels taken at weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20

Endpoints
Primary: percent change from baseline to completion UACR from first morning void urine sample
Secondary: Percent change from baseline to completion
mean 24hour urinary albumin Proportion of participants achieving 15%
reduction in mean UACR

Statistics
ANCOVA: analysis of covariance Adjusts the dependent variable means to what
they would be if all groups were equal in regards to the covariates
Enables you to compare only one variable Used to compare change in log-transformed
UACR, with baseline UACR as a covariate among the treatment groups

Results
Change in mean UACR between-groups difference
Amount achieving change in UACR by at least -15%
Change in 24hr urinary albumin excretion between-groups difference
1 mg -11% (p=0.23) 52% -2% (p=0.86)
2 mg -18% (p=0.053) 55% -28% (p=0.009)
Placebo 40%
Combined paricalcitol groups
-15% (p=0.071)

Results
2mg lowered eGFR and blood pressure significantly within 4 weeks
These, along with UACR, returned to baseline after discontinuation of the drug

Discussion
2mg daily of paricalcitrol significantly lowers albuminuria, and also lowers eGFR and blood pressure
These effects are reversible It could be an important adjunct therapy for
residual albuminuria, offering low chance hypercalcemia or other side effects
