Study Arms (1)

Epoetin Beta 30000 IU

EXPERIMENTAL

Dosage at Initiation: Subcutaneous injection of 30000 IU epoetin beta administered once a week. Dosage could be increased to 30000 IU twice a week or 60000 IU once a week after 4 weeks.

Drug: Epoetin Beta

Interventions

Dosage at Initiation: Subcutaneous injection of 30000 IU administered once a week. Dosage could be increased to 30000 IU twice a week or 60000 IU once a week after 4 weeks if a blood transfusion was required or hemoglobin level did not increase by at least 0.5 grams per deciliter (g/dL) versus baseline.
