About this study

Official title: An Observational, Prospective Study to Evaluate the Hemoglobin Levels in Non-Dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease Subjects With Renal Anemia, Treated With MIRCERA (Methoxy-Polyethylene-Glycol-Epoetin Beta)

This prospective observational study evaluated the efficacy and safety of Mircera (methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta) in chronic kidney disease participants on dialysis with renal anemia. Participants initiated on treatment with Mircera according to the Summary of Product Characteristics and standard clinical practice were followed for 10 months.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Participants with CKDThis single cohort included participants with CKD not receiving dialysis (Stages 3 and 4), with renal anemia, treated with MIRCERA according to usual clinical practice.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Hemoglobin Levels Within 10.0 - 12.0 g/dL at Months 8-10

    g/dL = grams per deciliter

    Measured: Months 8 to 10

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Hemoglobin Levels Within the Following Ranges: 11.0 - 12.0 g/dL, 11.0 - 13.0 g/dL, and 10.0 - 13.0 g/dL at Months 8-10

    g/dL = grams per deciliter

    Measured: Months 8 to 10

  2. Percentage of Participants With MIRCERA Dose Adjustments

    Changes in Mircera dose since last visit are reported. The numbers of participants for which data were not reported are also indicated.

    Measured: Up to 10 months

  3. Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (AEs) and Non-Serious AEs

    An AE is any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug. A serious AE is any experience that suggests a significant hazard, contraindication, side effect, or precaution.

    Measured: Up to 10 months

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

Percentage of Participants With Hemoglobin Levels Within 10.0 - 12.0 g/dL at Months 8-10 (time frame: Months 8 to 10). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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.
