Cinacalcet [AMG 073] is an orally active, second generation calcimimetic compound licensed by NPS Pharmaceuticals to Amgen in the US for the potential treatment of hyperparathyroidism (HPT).1 Cinacalcet modulates (increases the sensitivity of) calcium receptors on the surface of parathyroid cells thereby inhibiting the oversecretion of parathyroid hormone that characterises HPT.
