About this study

Official title: Post-authorization Safety Study to Prospectively Monitor the Incidence of Relevant Drug-related Adverse Events and EPO-related Lack of Efficacy Among CKD Subjects Receiving HX575 Recombinant Human Erythropoietin Alfa i.v.

Cumulative follow-up with HX575 epoetin alfa to prospectively monitor the incidence of relevant drug-related adverse events and EPO-related lack of efficacy among Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) subjects receiving HX575 epoetin alfa i.v.

Read the detailed description

This study was a multi-center, multinational, prospective, single-arm clinical study with a 6-month treatment period. The primary objective was to extend the safety database of patients with CKD who receive i.v. HX575 epoetin alfa treatment and to monitor the adverse event (AE) profile under post-approval conditions.

Being tested
HX575 recombinant human erythropoietin alfa

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
HX575 epoetin alfa i.v.ExperimentalThis post-authorization safety study was designed as a multi-center, multinational, prospective, single-arm clinical study with a 6-month HX575 (recombinant human) erythropoietin alfa treatment period. It was planned to include approximately 1,500 patients.
Receives: Drug: HX575 recombinant human erythropoietin alfa

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Drug-related Adverse Events Consisting of Epoetin Alfa-induced Immunogenicity and Resulting Clinical Effects

    The incidence of relevant drug-related adverse events consisting of Epoetin alfa-induced immunogenicity and resulting blockade in erythroid maturation (e.g. pure red cell aplasia) and lack of efficacy

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing HX575 recombinant human erythropoietin alfa in people with Chronic Kidney Disease, run by Sandoz at 114 sites in 10 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 114 sites in Germany, Italy, Poland, North Macedonia, Ukraine and 5 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 Jul 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Drug-related Adverse Events Consisting of Epoetin Alfa-induced Immunogenicity and Resulting Clinical Effects (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00632125, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Jul 2017.
