Summary

The purpose of this randomized, controlled pilot study is to evaluate the performance of this novel Anemia Controller (vis-à-vis standard of care) for anemia management in hemodialysis patients. Since the Anemia Controller is designed to bring patients to a pre-defined Hgb target level and keep them there, the target population for this study are patients whose Hgb levels are currently not well-controlled (rather than patients who are already relatively stable within the Hgb target range under a standard anemia management algorithm). Specifically, therefore, the target population for this clinical study are chronic hemodialysis patients who are exhibiting Hgb cycling.

Anemia Controller

Model Predictive Controller software (called "Anemia Controller") that utilizes our physiology-based erythropoiesis model to provide ESA dosing recommendations in order to guide a patient's Hgb level towards a predefined target value.
