About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Open Label, Active Comparator Parallel Controlled Phase 2 Clinical Study on Intravenous Administration of rESP Injection for the Treatment of Anemia in Chronic Renal Failure Patients With Hemodialysis.

A phase 2, randomized, open label, active comparator parallel controlled study to explore the dosage regiment of rESP, and evaluate its efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic characteristics in the treatment of anemia in chronic renal failure patients with hemodialysis

Read the detailed description

In this phase 2, open label, active comparator parallel controlled study, patients were randomly assigned to three study groups: one active comparator control group (rHu EPO, maintaining the same dose and frequency administrated in the sceening period ), and two experimental groups (0.5μg/kg ,once a week; 1.0μg/kg , once every two weeks). All the patients were administered intravenously for 32 weeks and were evaluated the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic characteristics. During the whole study period, dosage adjustment was not allowed in the first 4 weeks, while in the remaining trial period dosage adjustment was allowed once every two weeks if necessary.

Being tested
Recombinant Human Erythropoiesis Injection (CHO cell), Recombinant Erythropoiesis Stimulating Protein Injection(CHO cell)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Recombinant Human Erythropoiesis Injection (CHO cell)Drug

    Also called rHuEPO

    rHuEPO is a recombinant human erythropoietin with the same biological effects as natural erythropoietin

  • Recombinant Erythropoiesis Stimulating Protein Injection(CHO cell)Drug

    Also called rESP

    rESP is a high glucose medium and long-acting recombinant protein products, containing 165 amino acids by adding 3 glycosylation sites

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary efficacy index :hemoglobin concentration

    the amount of change in mean Hb concentration compared with baseline Hb concentration during the evaluation period (25th-32nd week)

    Measured: 25th-32nd week

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Secondary efficacy index:maintenance rate

    the proportion of subjects whose average Hb concentration remained within the target range during the evaluation period

    Measured: 25th-32nd week

  2. Secondary efficacy index :proportion of subjects

    the proportion of subjects whose range of dose adjustments decreased or increased by 25% still did not reach 100-120 g/L (both ends)

    Measured: for 32 weeks

  3. Secondary efficacy index: proportion of times

    the proportion of times the measured Hb concentration remains within the target range during the subject evaluation period

    Measured: 25th-32nd week

  4. Secondary efficacy index : average weekly dose

    the average weekly dose of the drug during the evaluation period (normalized by body weight)

    Measured: 25th-32nd week

  5. Secondary efficacy index: EPO dose conversion coefficient of rESP

    the EPO dose conversion coefficient of rESP (the average weekly dose of rESP during the screening period) and the dose correlation

    Measured: for 32 weeks

  6. Secondary efficacy index : mean reticulocyte count

    changes in mean values of reticulocyte compared to baseline values during the evaluation period.

    Measured: 25th-32nd week

  7. Secondary efficacy index : mean red blood cell count

    changes in mean values of red blood cell count compared to baseline values during the evaluation period

    Measured: 25th-32nd week

  8. Safety indicator: adverse events

    the type, proportion and severity of adverse events

    Measured: for 32 weeks

  9. Safety indicator: number of dose adjustments

    the number of dose adjustments used by the subject during the treatment and evaluation period

    Measured: for 32 weeks

  10. Safety indicator: the ratio of subjects who are adjusted

    the ratio of subjects who are adjusted during the treatment and evaluation period

    Measured: for 32 weeks

  11. Safety indicator: incidence of erythropoietin (EPO) antibodies and anti-rESP antibodies

    incidence of erythropoietin (EPO) antibodies and anti-rESP antibodies

    Measured: for 32 weeks

  12. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    the Cmax of rESP in patients with long-term medication.

    Measured: for 32 weeks

  13. Area Under the Curve (AUC)

    the AUC of rESP in patients with long-term medication.

    Measured: for 32 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Recombinant Human Erythropoiesis Injection (CHO cell) and Recombinant Erythropoiesis Stimulating Protein Injection(CHO cell) in people with Chronic Renal Failure With Hemodialysis, run by Shenyang Sunshine Pharmaceutical Co., LTD. at 1 site in China.

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 6 inclusion and 20 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xiangmei Chen, Medical PhD (13501261896, xmchen@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary efficacy index :hemoglobin concentration (time frame: 25th-32nd week). 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.

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 9 Mar 2020.
