About this study

Official title: ASP1517 Phase 2 Clinical Trial -A Multi-center, Randomized, Parallel Groups, Placebo-controlled, Double-Blind Study of ASP1517 for the Treatment of Anemia in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients Not on Dialysis-

This study is to evaluate the safety and the dose-response of ASP1517 in the treatment of anemia in non-dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients when ASP1517 is applied intermittently.

Read the detailed description

To evaluate the safety and the dose-response of ASP1517 on Hemoglobin (Hb) correction in the treatment of anemia in non-dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients when ASP1517 is applied intermittently. Patients will receive ASP1517 three times a week (TIW) for first 6weeks. Patients may have the second-randomization to TIW dosing or once-a-week (QW) dosing at Week 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 or 16 if patients meet the criteria.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of rise in Hb (g/dL/week) at Week 6

    Measured: Baseline and at 6 weeks after dosing

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Percentage of cumulative number of responder patients

    responder is defined as a Hb ≥10.0 g/dL and an increase in Hb by ≥1.0 g/dL

    Measured: for 28 weeks after dosing

  2. Percentage of visits at which patients maintain Hb between 10.0-12.0 g/dL after achieving Hb ≥10.0 g/dL for each patients

    Measured: for 28 weeks after dosing

  3. Percentage of patients who maintain Hb between 10.0-12.0 g/dL at each visit

    Measured: Before and Week-2, -3, -4, -6, -8, -10, -12, -14, -16, -18, -20, -22, -24 and -28

  4. Change from baseline in Hb

    Measured: Before and Week-2, -3, -4, -6, -8, -10, -12, -14, -16, -18, -20, -22, -24 and -28

  5. Safety assessed as the incidence of adverse events, vital signs, 12-lead ECGs and lab-tests

    Measured: for 28 weeks after dosing

Individual data sharing
Yes: Access to anonymized individual participant level data collected during the study, in addition to study-related supporting documentation, is planned for studies conducted with approved product indications and formulations, as well as products terminated during development. Studies conducted with product indications or formulations that remain active in development are assessed after study completion to determine if Individual Participant Data can be shared.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ASP1517 in people with Anemia in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients Not on Dialysis, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 7 sites in Japan.

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 4 inclusion and 9 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 30 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Japan. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Rate of rise in Hb (g/dL/week) at Week 6 (time frame: Baseline and at 6 weeks after dosing). 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 NCT01964196, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 30 Oct 2024.
