Brief Summary  

This is a Randomized, multicenter, double-blind, parallel-group, three-arm, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the bioequivalence with the clinical endpoint of ferric citrate tablet of Mylan Inc. versus Auryxia® (ferric citrate tablet, Keryx Biopharmaceuticals Inc.) in patients with chronic kidney disease not on dialysis (CKD-NDD)

Participants will be enrolled in the study after successfully completing screening activities between Day -14 to Day -1. Approximately 423 participants with CKD-NDD fulfilling the eligibility criteria will be randomized in 1:1:1 ratio to receive either Mylan’s Ferric citrate tablet (n = 141), RLD - Auryxia ferric citrate tablet (n = 141) or Placebo (n = 141). Randomized participants will be treated with ferric citrate 1 g tablet (each tablet = 210 mg elemental iron) or Placebo, three times daily with meals for 28 days

Following laboratory assessments will be performed during Visit 1 (Screening Visit), Visit 2, Visit 3, Visit 4, Visit 5, and Visit 6. Laboratory assessments done during Screening Visit will be considered for the purpose of determination of eligibility

·         1 Complete blood count- hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit, total and differential white blood count (WBC), red blood count (RBC), platelet count

·         Complete chemistry profile including liver function tests (albumin, bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase

·      3 (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), serum creatinine,

·        4 Iron parameters - serum iron, serum ferritin, % transferrin saturation (TSAT), total iron binding capacity (TIBC), unsaturated iron-binding capacity (UIBC)

·       5 Urine analysis

·        6 Serum electrolyte 

       7 serum phosphorus
