NCT00210600

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PROCRIT (Epoetin alfa) when administered at 120,000 Units once every three weeks by comparing early dosing (Hb 11g/dL-12g/dL) vs. standard dosing (Hb\< 11g/dL).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The proportion of weekly hemoglobin levels for all patients in each group during the 16 week PROCRIT (Epoetin alfa) treatment that are > 11.0 g/dL and < 13.0 g/dL.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The proportion of patients in the early intervention group for whom all hemoglobin values during the 16 week PROCRIT (Epoetin alfa) treatment were > 11.0 g/dL and < 13.0 g/dL.
