Peginesatide for Maintenance Treatment of Anemia in Participants on Hemodialysis

Summary

The purpose of this study was to determine the dose ranges of peginesatide administered intravenously or subcutaneously that maintained hemoglobin in participants on dialysis whose hemoglobin values were stable on epoetin (alfa or beta).

Conditions

• Anemia
• Chronic Kidney Disease
• Chronic Renal Failure

Interventions

DRUG

peginesatide

Tiered peginesatide starting doses of 0.05, 0.075, or 0.1 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) for participants on an epoetin (alfa or beta) dose of ≤100 Units/kg/week, \>100 to 150 Units/kg/week, or \>150 Units/kg/week, respectively. Doses were administered subcutaneously (SC) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) for a total of 7 doses. No transition period between epoetin treatment and start of peginesatide treatment.

DRUG

peginesatide

Tiered peginesatide starting doses of 0.05, 0.075, or 0.1 mg/kg for participants on an epoetin (alfa or beta) dose of ≤100 Units/kg/week, \>100 to 150 Units/kg/week, or \>150 Units/kg/week, respectively. Doses were administered intravenously (IV) once every 4 weeks for a total of 7 doses. No transition period between epoetin treatment and start of peginesatide treatment.

DRUG

peginesatide

Tiered peginesatide starting doses of 0.04 mg/kg or 0.075 mg/kg for participants with an epoetin (alfa or beta) dose of ≤100 Units/kg/week or 100 to 150 Units/kg/week, respectively. Doses were administered subcutaneously once every 4 weeks for a total of 7 doses. With transition period between epoetin treatment and start of peginesatide treatment.
