Abstract

Background and objectives: Oral sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (formerly ZS-9) binds and removes potassium via the gastrointestinal tract. Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate–associated restoration and maintenance of normokalemia and adverse events were evaluated in a two-part, open label, phase 3 trial. Design, setting, participants, & measurements: In the correction phase, adult outpatients with plasma potassium ≥5.1 mmol/L (i-STAT Point-of-Care) received sodium zirconium cyclosilicate 10 g three times daily for 24–72 hours until normokalemic (potassium =3.5–5.0 mmol/L). Qualifying participants entered the ≤12-month maintenance phase and received sodium zirconium cyclosilicate 5 g once daily titrated to maintain normokalemia without dietary or medication restrictions. Prespecified primary end points were restoration of normal serum potassium values (3.5–5.0 mmol/L) during the correction phase and maintenance of serum potassium ≤5.1 mmol/L during the maintenance phase. Adverse events were assessed throughout. Results: Of 751 participants, 746 (99%) achieved normokalemia during the correction phase (mean serum potassium =4.8 mmol/L; 95% confidence interval, 4.7 to 4.8) and entered the maintenance phase; 466 (63%) participants completed the 12-month trial. Participants were predominantly white, men, and age ≥65 years old; 74% had an eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 , and 65% used renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors. Mean time on sodium zirconium cyclosilicate was 286 days. Mean daily sodium zirconium cyclosilicate dose was 7.2 g (SD=2.6). Over months 3–12, mean serum potassium was 4.7 mmol/L (95% confidence interval, 4.6 to 4.7); mean serum potassium values ≤5.1 and ≤5.5 mmol/L were achieved by 88% and 99% of participants, respectively. Of 483 renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor users at baseline, 87% continued or had their dose increased; 11% discontinued. Among 263 renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor–naïve participants, 14% initiated renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor therapy. Overall, 489 (66%) participants experienced adverse events during the maintenance phase, and 22% experienced a serious adverse event. Of eight (1%) deaths, none were considered related to sodium zirconium cyclosilicate. Nine (1%) and 34 (5%) participants experienced serum potassium <3.0 and 3.0–3.4 mmol/L, respectively. Conclusions: After achieving normokalemia, individualized once daily sodium zirconium cyclosilicate was associated with maintenance of normokalemia without substantial renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor changes for ≤12 months.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
