Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Men or women ≥ 18 years old before beginning of screening
* Use, in the opinion of the principal investigator, effective contraceptive measures throughout the study
* Negative serum pregnancy test within 15 days before day 0
* Plasma iPTH concentration \> 45 pg/mL on at least 2 occasions (during the screening phase) at least 7 days apart
* Serum calcium concentration ≥ 11 mg/dL on 2 occasions (during the screening phase) at least 7 days apart
* Acceptable renal function, with an estimated creatinine clearance \> 50 mL/min as determined by the Cockroft and Gault equation
* Acceptable hepatic function, defined as serum aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT), and total bilirubin ≤ 2 times the upper limit of normal (central laboratory's range)
* Laboratory test results within the central laboratory's normal range for hematology, coagulation, urinalysis, and clinical chemistry parameters not mentioned specifically in other inclusion/exclusion criteria
* Chest x-ray within the past 12 months, with no evidence of an active infectious, inflammatory, or malignant process
* Informed consent for participation in the study

Exclusion Criteria:

* Any unstable medical condition requiring hospitalization within 30 days before day 0, or otherwise unstable condition in the judgment of the investigator
* Awaiting or scheduled for parathyroidectomy within 2 months after study day 0
* Pregnant or nursing
* Received, within 21 days before day 0, therapy with systemic glucocorticoids (\> 5 mg/day prednisone or equivalent), lithium, tricyclic antidepressants (with the exception of amitriptyline and nortriptyline), thioridazine, haloperidol, flecainide, drugs with a narrow therapeutic index that are primarily metabolized by hepatic cytochrome P450 CYP 2D6, drugs that affect renal tubular calcium handling (ie, thiazide or loop diuretics), or calcitonin
* Dose changes in bisphosphonates, thyroid replacement therapy, selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs), or changes in daily doses of estrogen (greater than 0.75 mg) within 90 days before day 0
* Subjects who discontinued estrogen or SERM therapy must have been off treatment for at least 90 days before day 0.
* Alcohol or illicit drug abuse within 12 months before day 0 based on self-report
* Myocardial infarction within 6 months before day 0
* Ventricular rhythm disturbance requiring current treatment
* Seizure within 12 months before day 0
* History (within 5 years) of malignancy of any type, other than nonmelanomatous skin cancers or in situ cervical cancer
* Evidence (within 5 years) of treatment for and/or active sarcoidosis, tuberculosis, or diseases other than primary HPT known to cause hypercalcemia
* History of familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH)
* Uncontrolled diabetes, as defined by hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥ 8.0
* Gastrointestinal disorder that may be associated with impaired absorption of orally administered medications
* Inability to swallow tablets similar in size to an aspirin tablet
* Known sensitivity to products administered during the study
* Previous participation as a subject in this study (ie, withdrawn early) or a prior study involving AMG 073 administration
* Enrolled in, or not yet completed at least 28 days since ending other investigational device or drug trial(s)
* Psychiatric disorder that would interfere with understanding and giving informed consent or compliance with protocol requirements
* Any other condition that might reduce the chance of obtaining data (ie, known poor compliance) required by the protocol or that might compromise the ability to give truly informed consent
