About this trial
The aim of the study is to look at the effects of dietary phosphorus on phosphorous and calcium whole-body balance and kinetics in moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD). N = 14 enrolled subjects will be randomly assigned to a cross-over order of (A) Low P Diet, High P Diet. Each cross-over phase will be 19 days and consist of a 7-day outpatient, controlled diet period, followed by a 5- day inpatient, controlled diet, balance, and kinetic study period, followed by a second 7-day outpatient, controlled diet period.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Men or women, ages 30-75 years old, any race or ethnicity
Moderate CKD, defined by KDIGO as eGFR category 3b (30-44 mL/min) or 4 (16-29 mL/min) with albuminuria categories A1-A3
Serum intact parathyroid hormone above assay normal limit
Female subjects must be postmenopausal (>12 months since last menstrual period), surgically sterile, or confirmed not pregnant by pregnancy test
Disqualifiers
Willing to discontinue supplements (e.g., vitamin D, calcium, multivitamin/minerals, or others) upon enrollment until completion of the study
Adequate vitamin D status defined as serum 25D > 20 ng/mL based on National Academy of Medicine (then Institute of Medicine) criteria.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Phosphorus Balance
Determined by analysis of phosphorus content in complete 24-hour urine and stool collections, subtracted from the diet phosphorus content consumed
Calcium Balance
Determined by analysis of calcium content in complete 24-hour urine and stool collections, subtracted from the diet calcium content consumed
Secondary outcomes
Fractional phosphorus absorption
Determined by kinetic modeling of serum, urine, and stool P-33 isotope after oral and IV isotope administrations
Bone phosphorus balance
Determined by kinetic modeling of serum, urine, and stool P-33 isotope after oral and IV isotope administrations
Bone calcium balance
Determined from the natural stable isotope ratio of 44-Ca to 42-Ca in serum and urine
Urine phosphorus
Determined from the 24-hour urine collections over 1 week (daily average)
