Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition comprising an aliphatic amine polymer or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable magnesium compound comprising a magnesium ion is disclosed. A method of treating hyperphosphatemia in a patient is also disclosed. The method comprises the step of administering to the subject an effective amount of the disclosed pharmaceutical composition.

Abstract: Polymers and compositions utilizing such polymers are disclosed for treating hyperphosphatemia and other illnesses associated with elevated serum phosphate levels. Phosphate binding polymers, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the polymers, comprise pendent groups extending from a backbone of the polymer. Each pendent group comprises at least two nitrogen-bearing functional groups which bind phosphate. Variations of such polymer and compositions are disclosed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a phosphate transport inhibiting compound represented by Structural Formula (I): R1 and R2 are independently —H, an electron withdrawing group or a C1–C10 alkyl group. Y is a covalent bond, a substituted methylene group, an unsubstituted methylene group or —CR1R2P(O)(OH)—. R3 is a hydrocarbyl group optionally comprising one or more amine, ammonium, ether, thioether or phenylene linking groups, a substituted hydrocarbyl group optionally comprising one or more amine, ammonium, ether, thioether or phenylene linking groups, a heteroaryl group, a substituted heteroaryl group or a phenyl group substituted with one or more groups selected from —Cl, —Br, —F, —CN, —NO2, —ORa, —N(Ra)2, —COORa, —CON(Ra)2, —CORa, —S(O)Ra, —S(O)2Ra, —S(O)2N(Ra)2, —NRaS(O)2Ra, —NRaCORa, a halogenated lower alkyl group, an aryl group, a substituted aryl group, or a halogenated alkoxy group. Each Ra is independently —H, lower alkyl, substituted lower alkyl, aryl or substituted aryl.
