Colestilan is a non-absorbed, non-calcium-based, phosphate binder. It also binds bile acids and reduces serum levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). This study evaluated the efficacy of a range of fixed doses of colestilan compared with placebo for the control of serum phosphorus and LDL-C levels in patients with CKD stage 5 on dialysis.
