Patients at Risk of Hyperkalemia

Chronic kidney disease (GFR<30ml/min)• Distal Tubular Acidosis (type IV) with hyperkalemia

• Acute kidney injury

• Cardiac failure (Cardio-Renal syndrome)

• Diabetics (Diabetic nephropathy, Degenerative)

• Elderly

• Combined pathologies

• Patients receiving drugs that modulate renal elimination of potassium- Reducing production of angiotensin II (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, direct renin

inhibitors, β-adrenergic receptor antagonists)

- Blocking angiotensin II receptors (angiotensin receptor blockers)- Antagonizing action of aldosterone on mineralocorticoid receptors

(mineralocorticoid receptor blockers)

Page 40: hiper K.pdf

7/26/2019 hiper K.pdf

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/hiper-kpdf 40/57

Patiromer Sorbitex Calcium

• A novel potassium exchange polymer

• Powder, dry, odorless for suspension in water

• Consists of spherical beads with an average diameter of 100 μm 

• Lower viscosity than polymeric drugs and powder (eg, sodium polystyrene sulfonate)

• Contains sorbitol (29% of weight) and calcium accounts (11%)

  ̶  2 g of sorbitol + 0.8 g of calcium for every 4.2 g of patiromer

• Patiromer passes through gastrointestinal tract without degradation

• Principal site of action is colon

• Acts approximately 7 hours after ingestion

• Chronic therapy to treat hyperkalemia.

Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate (SZ-9)

Page 41: hiper K.pdf

7/26/2019 hiper K.pdf

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/hiper-kpdf 41/57

Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate (SZ 9)

• A novel potassium exchange crystalline lattice

• ZS-9 is a potassium ion trap that was 3-dimensional structure engineered

  ̶ High affinity to potassium and balanced ratio of exchange ions

• ZS-9 is a highly selective crystalline lattice that preferentially entraps potassium cations

over other cations over divalent cations (eg, calcium and magnesium)

• ZS-9 appears to bind ammonium, resulting in net acid loss, systemic reduction in blood

urea nitrogen, and elevation in plasma bicarbonate.

• ZS-9 will be available as a tasteless, odorless, insoluble, and non absorbed powder (given

with 40-120 mL of water per dose), and potentially a tablet

• It requires no special handling or special preparation and does not have to be given in

solution or with cathartics such as sorbitol.

• Several clinical trials have tested ZS-9

Limitations and Remaining Questions

Page 56: hiper K.pdf

7/26/2019 hiper K.pdf

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/hiper-kpdf 56/57

• No head-to-head randomized, controlled trials of two or more agents (novel

agent vs novel agent or versus sodium polystyrene sulfate)• Acute emergency treatment of hyperkalemia have not been tested with these

novel agents

• In the setting of acute kidney injury, effects of patiromer or ZS-9 have not beenevaluated

• Alternative routes of administration (nasogastric tube or rectal administration,

enema) for these novel agents have not been tested to date• Long term treatment (months to year) of hyperkalemia with these novel K

binders has not explored

• Most common clinical indications of hyperkalemia that requires treatment havenot been evaluated in clinical trials

• Long-term safety and efficacy of these new K binders cannot be inferred today

• Cost-effectiveness has not been addressed

Conclusions

Page 57: hiper K.pdf

7/26/2019 hiper K.pdf

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/hiper-kpdf 57/57

• Novel therapies, including the polymer patiromer sorbitex calcium and

sodium zirconium cyclosilicate 9 trap, are promising both as acutemedications and as adjunctive therapies for hyperkalemia

• Novel therapies may allow greater use of RAAS (ACE inhibitors, ARBs, and

MRAs ) and Aldosterone Blockade in vulnerable patients (hypertensive,

CKD, Cardiac…)

• Remaining questions to be addressed in long term studies

• Patient acceptance,

• Long term safety,

• Best use,

• Cost-effectiveness
