STUDY PROCEDURE: 1. In all subjects: Recommend adequate dietary protein intake to achieve or maintain an nPCR (nPNA) above 1.0 g/kg/day for 2 months. Encourage aggressive increase in protein intake while avoiding high phos/protein ratio esp. higher intake of egg whites, meat, fish, poultries, legumes, etc. via counseling by renal dietician (RD) and/or study staff. 2. Both groups will receive free meal boxes during the first 60 min of HD treatment for 8 weeks (24 meals during 24 HD treatment sessions). Cases will receive high protein meals (\~50 gm, with phos/protein ratio \<10 mg//gm), whereas controls will receive salad with almost no protein. 3. In CASES (n=55): Switch binder simultaneously to (or start) Fosrenol 500 mg to 1,500 per meal/snack, according to the meal size at different times of the day. Recommend crushing the pills using the pill-crusher that will be provided to subjects, and recommend placing or sprinkling Fosrenol pieces on the food. Titrate the dose every 2 weeks according to serum phosphorus. 4. In CONTROLLS (n=55): Continue the same binder (other than Fosrenol). In All subjects: Titrate the binder as indicated to control serum phosphorus \<5.5 mg/dL. SAFETY ENDPOINTS: 1. Routine safety measures for food ingestion and binder administration 2. Bi-weekly measures of minerals and monthly measures of PTH STATISTICAL METHODS: The t test, the chi square test, and the Mann-Whitney rank sum test to compare the baseline characteristics of intervention and control participants in serum albumin and other measures. To simplify presentation of results, some Likert scale responses will be dichotomized. The corresponding P values will be based on the complete ordinal scales used by participants to respond to questions quality of life, satisfaction, and food intake and about how often they eat meals from specific fast-food restaurants.27:["$","$L2a",null,{"trial":{"nctId":"NCT01116947","briefTitle":"Fosrenol for Enhancing Dietary Protein Intake in Hypoalbuminemic Dialysis Patients (FrEDI) Study","officialTitle":"Fosrenol for Enhancing Dietary Protein Intake in Hypoalbuminemic Dialysis Patients (FrEDI) Study: An Investigator Initiated Study","briefSummary":"$2b","detailedDescription":"$2c","overallStatus":"COMPLETED","phase":"NA","studyType":"INTERVENTIONAL","conditions":["End-Stage Renal Disease"],"interventions":[{"type":"OTHER","name":"Meals during hemodialysis accompanied by lanthanum carbonate to control phosphorus","description":"Based on the hypothesis that the efficacy and potency of Fosrenol enables increasing dietary protein intake and provision of meals during dialysis treatment for improving nutritional status in malnourished dialysis patients with a low serum albumin (\\<4.0 g/dL) while serum phosphorus can be effectively controlled with the target range of 3.5 to 5.5 mg/dL"}],"keywords":["Hypoalbuminemia","Hyperphosphatemia","Phosphorus","Protein","CKD","Dialysis","Meals","Lanthanum","End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD)","Dietary Protein Intake (DPI)","Dietary Phosphorus Binding (DPB)","Protein-Energy Wasting (PEW)","Sources of Dietary Phosphorus"],"locations":null,"eligibilityCriteria":"Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
