Effects of calcifediol supplementation on markers of chronic kidney disease‐mineral and bone disorder in dogs with chronic kidney disease

BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease‐mineral and bone disorder (CKD‐MBD) in dogs is associated with hypovitaminosis D, increased parathyroid hormone (PTH), and increased fibroblast growth factor‐23 (FGF‐23) concentrations. Best practice for vitamin D metabolite supplementation in CKD‐MBD remains unkno...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease‐mineral and bone disorder (CKD‐MBD) in dogs is associated with hypovitaminosis D, increased parathyroid hormone (PTH), and increased fibroblast growth factor‐23 (FGF‐23) concentrations. Best practice for vitamin D metabolite supplementation in CKD‐MBD remains unknown. OBJECTIVE: To provide an extended‐release calcifediol supplement to dogs with CKD and to measure its effects on variables indicative of CKD‐MBD. ANIMALS: Ten dogs with International Renal Interest Society stages 2 and 3 CKD. METHODS: In a prospective study, dogs received a calcifediol supplement for 84 days. Serum 25‐hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D), 1,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25[OH](2)D), 24,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D (24,25[OH](2)D), creatinine, calcium, phosphorus, PTH, plasma FGF‐23 concentrations, and urine profiles were measured monthly during supplementation. Urine calcium to creatinine (UCa/Cr) ratios and fractional excretion of calcium, phosphorus, and sodium were determined. RESULTS: All serum vitamin D metabolite concentrations increased significantly by day 84 (P < .001): [25(OH)D (median 249.9 ng/mL; range, 149.7‐469.9 ng/mL) compared to baseline (median 50.2 ng/mL; range, 31.3‐66.0 ng/mL); 1,25(OH)(2)D (median 66.1 pg/mL; range, 56.9‐88.1 pg/mL) compared to baseline (median 37.3 pg/mL; range, 29.3‐56.7 pg/mL); 24,25(OH)(2)D (median 81.4 ng/mL; range, 22.1‐151.7 ng/mL) compared to baseline (median 15.4 ng/mL; range, 6.9‐40.6 ng/mL)]. There were no significant differences in calcium, phosphorus, PTH concentrations, UCa/Cr or fractional excretion of calcium. No dog developed ionized hypercalcemia. Plasma FGF‐23 concentrations increased by day 84 (median 1219 pg/mL; range, 229‐8824 pg/mL) compared to baseline (median 798 pg/mL; range, 103‐4.145 pg/mL) (P < .01). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Calcifediol supplementation for 84 days was well‐tolerated in dogs with IRIS stages 2 and 3 CKD. It remains to be determined how long‐term supplementation would affect CKD progression and QOL.
