NCT01719146

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to prospectively collect data on doses of Erythropoietic Stimulating Agents (ESA) and Intravenous Iron, and the markers of erythropoietic activity and iron status. These data will be used to derive mathematical models which will subsequently guide dosing of both agents, such that a desired therapeutic outcome is achieved in every patient, while minimizing patient exposure to both agents.

Interventions

At the beginning of each midweek hemodialysis session, a blood specimen (4 mL) will be drawn from the study subject. Out of this specimen a 1 mL serum sample will be frozen and stored. A 3 mL blood sample will be shipped overnight to WNERTA for laboratory testing.
