Fresenius Medical Care Announces Positive Results
from PhosLo CARE-2 Study


Bad Homburg, Germany
– Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA today
announced positive results from the PhosLo (calcium acetate) CARE-2 (Calcium Acetate Renagel Evaluation) study. The study demonstrated that when lipid levels are kept constant in both treatment groups, there is no difference in cardiovascular calcification between patients treated with PhosLo and those treated with Renagel (sevelamer hydrochloride). The data refute the hypothesis that the calcium in PhosLo contributes to cardiovascular calcification. The findings were presented by Dr. Wajeh Qunibi, of the University of Texas Health Science Center, San Antonio at the American Society of Nephrology’s Renal Week 2006 Conference in San Diego, The CARE-2 study was a randomized, controlled head-to-head comparison between PhosLo and Renagel with the addition of Lipitor (atorvastatin calcium), as appropriate, in both treatment groups to control LDL (Low Density Cholesterol) levels. The study found no statistically significant difference in the progression in cardiovascular calcification (CAC) between the two treatment groups after 12 months of treatment. Patients treated with PhosLo and Renagel achieved comparable reductions in Serum-Phosphorus and Calcium-Phosphorus product and even more importantly K/DOQI target levels were reached significantly faster with PhosLo.

About PhosLo
PhosLo is administered orally, and when given with food, combines with dietary phosphate to form
insoluble calcium phosphate complexes that are eliminated from the body, thereby reducing
phosphorus absorption, helping to prevent excess blood phosphorus levels. Patients should have
serum calcium levels closely monitored and their dose of PhosLo adjusted or terminated to bring
levels to normal. PhosLo is contraindicated in patients with hypercalcemia. No other calcium
supplements should be given concurrently with PhosLo. PhosLo is well tolerated and has an excellent
safety profile. Nausea, hypercalcemia, and pruritus (itching) have occasionally been reported during
PhosLo therapy.
