Brief Summary   Protocol for Maintaining Serum Calcium Levels (8-8.5 mg/dl)

Pre-Study Preparation
1. Inclusion Criteria Fulfillment
   - Assess patients to ensure they meet the inclusion criteria for the study.

2. Active Vitamin D Dosage Adjustment
   - Titrate the dose of Active Vitamin D by 0.25 µg/day to maintain serum calcium levels between 8.0 and 8.5 mg/dl.
   - Maximum dose: 3 µg/day.

3. Monitoring
   - Follow up with patients weekly to measure serum calcium (S. Ca) and phosphorus levels until the target calcium range is achieved.
   - Once patients achieve target serum calcium levels, they can be directly recruited for the study.

4. Dietary Assessment
   - Evaluate patients’ daily intake of calcium and phosphorus using a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire administered by a trained dietitian.

Study Enrollment and Initial Phase
5. Enrollment
   - Enroll all subjects who fulfill the inclusion criteria.

6. Medication Continuation
   - Instruct subjects to continue their usual medications along with calcium supplementation.

7. Dose Adjustment Period (Two Weeks)
   - Adjust the dose of Active Vitamin D as needed to maintain serum calcium levels between 8.0 and 8.5 mg/dl.

 Control Period
8. Diet Control Period (4-5 days)
   - Provide all participants with a diet of constant calcium (600-1300 mg) and sodium (100-200 meq).

9. Baseline Measurements
   - Record baseline vitals and conduct investigations as outlined in Annexure 1 for each study subject.

Randomization and Experimental Phase
10. Randomization
    - Randomize participants into two groups (A and B) in a 1:1 ratio.

11. Experimental Intervention - Part 1
    - Group A: Administer hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5 mg with a low-salt diet (50-100 meq/day).
    - Group B: Administer placebo.

12. Day 4 Post-Intervention
    - Measure the following parameters in both groups:
      - Vitals: Blood Pressure (BP), Heart Rate (HR)
      - Body weight, estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)
      - Serum: Calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, albumin, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), Vitamin D
      - 24-hour urinary excretion: calcium, sodium, phosphorus, and fractional urinary calcium excretion.

13. Dose Adjustment
    - If no contraindications, increase HCTZ dose to 25 mg from 12.5 mg on Day 4.

14. Day 7 Measurements
    - Repeat all parameters measured on Day 4.

Washout Period
15. Intervention-Free Period
    - Allow a washout period of 2 weeks where participants are free of any intervention.

Experimental Phase - Part 2 (Crossover)
16. Crossover Intervention
    - Group A: Switch to placebo.
    - Group B Switch to HCTZ (12.5 mg) with a low-salt diet.

17. Day 4 Post-Intervention
    - Measure the same parameters as in the first part.

18. Dose Adjustment
    - Increase HCTZ dose to 25 mg from 12.5 mg on Day 4 if no contraindications.

19. Day 7 Measurements
    - Repeat all parameters measured on Day 4.

Extension Phase
20.Continuation with Experimental Drug
    - Administer the experimental drug (HCTZ) to all participants at a dose of 12.5 mg or 25 mg as tolerated.

21. Follow-Up
    - Monitor participants for 1 month for primary and secondary outcomes.

22. Outcome Assessment
    - Conduct a final assessment of outcomes at the end of the study.

This protocol outlines a comprehensive approach to maintaining serum calcium levels within the target range and monitoring the effects of hydrochlorothiazide with a low-salt diet.
