The objective to evaluate the effect of tenapanor alone or in combination with phosphate binders to achieve target serum phosphorus (s-P) levels of ≤5.5 mg/dL when tenapanor is administered as the core therapy (alone or in combination with phosphate binders) for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis.

Primary Outcome
