[Phosphate binders : What are the recent evidences ?].

Hyperphosphatemia is a late complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is a major non-traditional cardiovascular risk factor in CKD. The management of hyperphosphatemia is based on restriction of phosphate intake, phosphate binders and dialysis. Phosphate binders are divided into calcium-based and non-calcium-based binders. Recent evidence suggest restricting the dose of calcium-based phosphate binders because of the associated increased mortality in compared to non-calcic ones. New treatments are under development such as inhibitors of kidney or intestinal phosphate absorption. These therapies could improve patients' compliance.
