NCT01322347

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to confirm the safety and efficacy of Soluble Ferric Pyrophosphate (SFP) dialysate solution in maintaining iron delivery for erythropoiesis in anemic adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) receiving hemodialysis. Efficacy will be measured primarily by the change from baseline in hemoglobin (Hgb).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change From Baseline Hemoglobin at End-of-Treatment: Least-Squares Mean

    Mean change from baseline Hgb (the average of the three most recent Hgb values preceding randomization) assessments during the last one-sixth of the treatment period for patients who prematurely withdraw from study treatment, but will include a minimum of at least the last two Hgb values. Value is expressed as least-squares mean, along with standard error.

    Hgb measured weekly; up to 48 weeks from date of randomization

  • Change From Baseline Hemoglobin at End-of-Treatment: Mean Baseline and End-of-Treatment Hemoglobin

    Mean change from baseline Hgb (the average of the three most recent Hgb values preceding randomization) assessments during the last one-sixth of the treatment period for patients who prematurely withdraw from study treatment, but will include a minimum of at least the last two Hgb values. Values expressed are mean baseline and end-of-treatment Hgb, along with the mean difference (standard deviation).

    Hgb measured weekly; up to 48 weeks from date of randomization

Secondary Outcomes (13)

  • Mean Change in Serum Iron From Pre-Dialysis to Post-Dialysis

    Up to 48 weeks from date of randomization

  • Mean Change in Transferrin Saturation From Pre-Dialysis to Post-Dialysis

    Up to 48 weeks from date of randomization

  • Mean Change in Unsaturated Iron-Binding Capacity (UIBC) From Pre-Dialysis to Post-Dialysis

    Up to 48 weeks from date of randomization

  • Red Blood Cell or Whole Blood Transfusion: Number of Patients Who Received a Transfusion

    Up to 48 weeks from date of randomization

  • Red Blood Cell or Whole Blood Transfusion: Number of Units Transfused

    Up to 48 weeks from date of randomization

  • +8 more secondary outcomes

  • Vascular access for dialysis with femoral catheter or non-tunneled catheter.
  • Received a total of \> 800 milligrams (mg) IV iron during the 8 weeks prior to enrollment.

  • Serum albumin \< 3.0 grams per deciliter (g/dL) any time over the 8 weeks prior to enrollment.
  • Red Blood Cell (RBC) or whole blood transfusion within 12 weeks prior to enrollment.
  • Stage 2:

  • Stable Hgb defined as ≤ 1.0 g/dL difference between the maximum and minimum Hgb values over the 3 weeks immediately prior to randomization.
  • Mean TSAT ≥ 15% to ≤ 40% over the two most recent consecutive every-other-week measurements prior to randomization.
  • Mean serum ferritin ≥ 200 to ≤ 800 µg/L over the two most recent consecutive every-other-week measurements prior to randomization.
  • If being administered epoetin, darbepoetin, or CERA, epoetin dose ≤ 45,000 U/week, darbepoetin dose ≤ 200 µg/week, or CERA dose ≤ 400 µg/month during the four weeks prior to randomization.
  • Patient has living kidney donor identified or living-donor kidney transplant scheduled. (Note: Patients awaiting deceased-donor transplant need not be excluded.)
